    The Westerns of the 1960s and 1970s were really able to perform the hilarious joy and the slowly simmering sadness to the extreme. The film does not praise history, but looks at history from the perspective of individual life. There is too much hope and despair in the sand, too much forbearance and sorrow in laughter, and love is the best and the most distant.

    A Western with a strange style, the plot is de-typed again and again and unexpectedly, but I don't know why the ending was handled that way? Just to express the fact that the old western people can't integrate into modern society and can only stay in the wild desert forever? In this way, the whole film is de-typed, and in the end, it uses the common ending of western films, but it falls into a cliché... The inspiration for Wong Kar-wai's "Evil in the West" and Shunji Iwai's "Swallowtail...

    Restore your real west

    A cowboy, whose guns, horses, and water depend on his survival, is taken by force. How will he interpret a legend in the desert? The beginning of this story is reminiscent of the famous sentence of Yuan pronoun Ma Zhiyuan, "The heartbroken man is in the end of the world". In the Gobi, the hungry...
