What happened at the end, Cooper stops Burt from running off with getting half the loot and instead Gary gets £100k for now helping the Mexicans, possibly because he got his wallet back?

Thanks

I think you got it right. He gets the $100,000 and the girl. From his comments earlier in the movie he probably goes back to Louisiana to start a new life. Remember he wasn't just down in Mexico for himself but wanted to come back to help some people in Louisiana. Also $100,000 was a lot of money back then.

$100,000 is still a lot of money ;)

Especially in 1954. Would be worth around $800,000 or more.

And considering the movie was set in the mid 1860s it would be even worth more.

About $1,600,000
