Kaibo Huge was betrayed and robbed by his friends Tagore and Buwen, leaving nothing behind. While trekking in the desert, he vowed to take revenge. On the verge of dying of thirst, Huge accidentally dug up a source of water, so he had a plan to sit on the ground and sell water to passers-by. The first passer-by refused to pay and was shot by Hugh. The second traveler, the pastor Joshua, threatened to sue him for illegal possession of the land, but it just inspired him to go to the town to buy the land. Huge persuaded the banker in the town to invest him in building a hotel near the water source. At the same time, he also met Xidi, a charming prostitute in the town. When Xidi was expelled by the townspeople, Huge took her in. The two fell in love. Xidi's dream is to find a rich husband in San Francisco, but Huge wants to stay where he is for revenge. Xidi reluctantly left Huge. Three years later, Huge finally waited for his enemies, Tagore and Bouwin. After a fight, Huge killed Tagore and forgave Buvin who was begging for mercy. As a wealthy widow, Xidi returns to his hometown, Huge cedes the inn to Buwen and prepares to follow Xidi to the big city. Before departure, Huge was hit by a car in order to save Buwen and died of his injuries

I missed another good film. The most accepted Pekin French Western.

Pekinpa's alternative comedy western shows the story of the prodigal son of the West in the desert development and struggle. The betrayal and wandering at the beginning directly show the premise that the West is dead. With the excavation of water sources and the establishment of post stations, the desolate western background gradually Began to move towards civilization, and the Westerners are inevitably going to perish. The tone of the whole film is moderate and restrained, and the banter of religion and priests is also a bit Buñuel.

Cable Hogue: Hell no, it never bothered me. I enjoyed it. Now, what the hell are you? Human being. Try the best you can. We all got our own ways of living.
Hildy: And loving?
Cable Hogue: Gets mighty lonesome without it.
