Wait, what did the boy find?


That scene where the boy finds something as the women are knitting.... what was it he found?


Carl: I stabbed him 37 times in the chest
Paul: Carrlll that KILLS people!

The Indian who was following them? That's what I gathered as I battling to stay awake during this film.

He found what's come to be known in Oregon folklore as The Lost Blue Bucket Mine. He found a creek/river bed full of gold nuggets, and the place was marked as it was by Paul Dano in the film, but it's never been found since.

On the run from Johnny Law...Ain't no trip to Cleveland.

I understand they had to move on; however, had I been there I would have suggested taking maybe just an hour or two to gather some nuggets, since the boy indicated they were plentiful and lying around in plain sight.
