[00:11.35]Mississippi

[00:26.65]
[00:30.74]When'd you get here?
[00:32.48]1920.
[00:34.22]How old were you?
[00:36.03]Don't remember
[00:37.91]Then what happened?
[00:39.53]I met Amos
[00:41.15]And he stole my heart away
[00:42.39]Convinced me to elope one day
[00:44.65]Oh, poor dear, I can't believe what you've been through!
[00:47.34]A convent girl! A run-away marriage!
[00:49.71]Now tell us, Roxie
[00:51.57]Who's Fred Casely?
[00:53.69]My ex-boyfriend.
[00:55.39]Why'd you shoot him?

[00:58.79]Was he angry?
[01:00.47]Like a madman
[01:01.95]Still I said, "Fred, move along."
[01:03.53]She knew that she was doin' wrong.
[01:05.96]Then describe it.
[01:07.76]He came toward me.
[01:09.59]With a pistol?
[01:11.27]From my bureau.
[01:12.94]Did you fight him?
[01:14.50]Like a tiger.
[01:16.18]He had strength and she had none.
