The Coen Brothers’ western story collection has many changes in aesthetics, style, and plot elements, including absurdity, black humor, and sentimental lyrical. In terms of plot, it also incorporates classic western elements such as duel, robbery, gold panning, pioneering, and battle with Indians. However, because it is a collection of six stories, the film also lacks the emotional completeness of the feature film, and is more like a game of the Coen brothers. I love Franco and Zoe Kazan the most.

【B+】In this grotesque world, use ridicule to resolve absurdity, use ballads to fight fate, and finally die in relief. On the whole, this film is more like a dismantling and summary of past works, and still has that exaggerated but impeccable sense of maturity at the text level. Judging from the text-image theme formed by the six stories, the "sense of nothingness" in the director's style is also stronger than in previous works. The calm face before, and the next story that slowly opened. Just like those stories, we are also going to disappear into the wind and dust.
