    [Leone's "Trilogy of the Past" Part 2] Four and a half stars +. At the beginning, Mao's words are quoted to reveal the essence of the revolution, and set up the revolution in Leon's western utopian world, and also establish the revolution that belongs to him. Juan's appearance after the opening feature was a critique and mockery of the theory of wealth. At the turning point, Juan "talks" about the revolutionary views, followed by a long shot of Juan's sad eyes and corpses lying all over the...

    Of Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in the West trilogy, the one I love the most is "Revolutionary", which has more Far-reaching and long-lasting meaning, black humor, romance, western style, the combination of the three is so classic and so...

    A revolution is not a dinner party. A revolution is bloodshed. It is the overthrow of one class by another. "When I first picked up the bomb I trusted everyone, now I only trust the...

    The story of a bandit who wanted to bring in a defector, but was deceived by the defector. In fact, the film does not involve much of the idea of ​​​​the rebels, and is essentially a legend of heroes. The more interesting point is that, while showing the cruelty of the rebels' struggle, the small complaints against the rebels through the mouth of Juan reflect the fact that the film is to a certain extent. Some essential problems of historical reformers (such as asset J-level master reformers),...

    "The Past Trilogy" completed. Revolutions are where conventional discourse fails and are a failed surrogate for social dialogue, so it is not enough to examine revolutions in terms of a set of ethical principles. Leone tried his best to show the revolution from a double perspective to avoid caricature, and the audience can see various double voices in the film, which makes the film somewhat lengthy and drags the characters to fatigue. A revolution is a locomotive running into darkness, a throw...

    8.3/10 Rewatch "Revolutionary Past". At the beginning, I borrowed old Mao's famous words to talk about the revolution, and satirized it in a comedy tone. Since Hu An broke the revolution with a mantra, it has become heavier and heavier. The slow-motion soft light flashes back to show infinite romantic feelings. The ethereal soundtrack echoed in my mind for a long time, Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, Xiao...

    With the help of the film archives in Beijing and Paris, I finally finished reading Leone's Once Upon a Time Trilogy and the Red Dead Trilogy. I am afraid that the past series will have to be digested slowly, but the Red Dead series really has the spirit of no future in aesthetics, and it will always be an eternal textbook for genre films and commercial...

    At this point, all six of The Red Dead and the Past are officially engraved in my heart. Personal ranking: Red Dead Redemption = Red Dead Redemption > Red Dead Redemption, America > Revolution > West. Every time I look at his works during the patch journey, it is like meeting an old friend who has been lost for a long time. Familiarity and new ideas are always surging in the iconic flashbacks, close-ups and free and easy soundtracks. Repeated without losing reorganization, the unity of charm...

    People who read go to people who don't and say "we have to change", and the poor go to change. And then the people who read were sitting at the big table, talking, talking, talking, eating, eating, eating. But what about the poor people? They died! What happened after that? Fuck it all over again... -...

    Revolutionary heroes are not oolong

    Leone's work, the trilogy consisting of "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​and "Once Upon a Time in the West", is also slightly less famous than the first two, which may be the reason for the slightly mixed style and the slow narrative, for the audience. , Juan and John's looks are not flattering,...

Duck, You Sucker! quotes

  • Juan Miranda: What kinda work you do for the German? Listen, I asked you a question. What do you do for the German?

    John H. Mallory: I've been looking for silver.

    Juan Miranda: Silver? You know something? I don't understand you. I don't understand how you waste your time and your holy water looking for silver. To me, that's a sin.

    John H. Mallory: Do you have any better ideas?

    Juan Miranda: Si, I think gold is better than silver.

    John H. Mallory: Ah, there isn't any gold in these hills.

    Juan Miranda: Oh ho, yes there is! In Mesa Verde.

    John H. Mallory: Mesa Verde? It's a city.

    Juan Miranda: Of course it's a city! Who ever heard of having a bank in the country, huh?

    John H. Mallory: Uh huh. A bank?

    Juan Miranda: Not "a bank." *The bank!* The most beautiful, wonderful, fantastic, gorgeous, magnificent bank in the whole world! When you stand before the bank and you see it has the gates of gold, like it was the gates of heaven. And when you go inside, everything, *everything* is gold! Gold spittoons, gold handles, and money, money, money is everywhere. And you know, I know 'cause I saw this when I was eight years old. I went there with my father. He tried to rob the bank, but they caught him. But they will never catch me, eh, Papa?

    Papa Miranda: Right.

    Juan Miranda: Listen, Firecracker. Now you listen to me... listen, why don't you come with me, eh? And we will work together... and we will become rich.

    [chuckles]

    Juan Miranda: What the hell is your name?

    John H. Mallory: [wearily] Seán...

    Juan Miranda: What?

    John H. Mallory: John.

    Juan Miranda: What is your name?

    John H. Mallory: John.

    Juan Miranda: [laughs] That's fantastic, that is incredible, eh! My name is Juan and yours is John! It's Juan and John, eh? Heh, heh!

    John H. Mallory: So what?

    Juan Miranda: What do you mean, "So what?" Can't you understand that is... that is... the... oh... ah... destiny.

    [John remembers his girlfriend and friend]

  • Juan Miranda: Hey, what kind of trouble you in?

    John H. Mallory: Oh, we had a wee fart of a revolution in Ireland.

    Juan Miranda: A revolution? Seems to me the revolutions are all over the world. You know, they're like the *crabs*! We had a revolution here. When it started, all the brave people went in it, and what it did to them was terrible. Pancho Villa, the best bandit chief in the world, you know that? This man had two balls like the bull. He went in the revolution as a great bandit. When he came out, he came out as what? Nothing. A general, huh? That, to me, is the bullshit!
