Actually he never put down his gun

At first, do you think this is the Eastwood I know? What was in front of him was just an ordinary stubborn old man.

His figure is out of shape, his skin is sagging, trying to make himself tall and straight like a javelin, and the occasional sharp eyes are just concealing the irreversible aging.

You want to ask, where are you, my old cowboy, did it become a family community when the desert and yellow sand became a family community, when half a century passed like flying, wrinkles are not only carved on your face, but your soul? It is also very old.



He picked up the gun again and pointed at the kid who wanted to steal his car. For a moment, it was as if the suffocating Eastwood was back again, but in the next shot, the old guy fell down, and he mocked himself slightly. Blood from the corner of his mouth, bastard, you don't know who he is cursing.

In front of the screen, you sighed gently with the action of standing up with him. Is the twilight hero so sad?




He is Clout Eastwood, he is the fistful of wildness in the desert yellow sand, he is the dirty Harry in the bustling city, and he is the last cowboy still living in the last century. Even if he is dying.

So, you saw him holding up the gun again, he pointed the gun at a group of gangsters, he said, get out of my yard. His voice is not loud and his eyes are serious. Even if the gunshot sounds in the next second, you will not be surprised at all. Even if this is the United States in the 21st century, you will not feel abrupt.

Because he is Kraut Eastwood.



The next thing is the inexplicable warmth. He awkwardly accepts other people's thanks. He observes the kid who wants to steal his car. He tries hard to teach this kid to be a man. He has two sons, he has grandchildren, but he has no affection.

Of course he won't admit it, but that kid is really his relative.

The growth of a man is looking at the back of the man in front of him. The neighbor who lacks a man's back in his life unconsciously watched the old cowboy's back grow.

One old and one young, the lives of the two men are inadvertently intertwined.



The old cowboy said, there are many good men around me, but my goddess still married me, so boy, you have to be courageous and don't be a coward.

The old cowboy said, I will move the top because it is heavier, so just push it below.

The car thief said, no, either I will move it or I will leave.

The old cowboy said, you should go to school and I will find a job for you.


He took that kid to a haircut, taught him how to talk to strangers, and took him to buy things. Life seems to be so warm forever.




The gangsters blocked the kid. They didn’t have any enmity. There are so many people in this world. They don’t see the happiness of others, they don’t see people who live quietly, and they can’t tolerate people who live honestly in their hearts. The existence of is to destroy all peace and beauty.

The old cowboy looked at the scar on the face of the young man in front of him. He found the hooligan, and he changed back to Eastwood in the wilderness. He used violence to control violence.

Then more severe revenge came. The car thief's house was shot at random, and his sister was humiliated. . .



The 78-year-old man sat quietly in the dark home. He wiped his gun over and over in the warm afternoon. He went to the barber's haircut he knew well, and he said, get it right this time.

He went to the tailor to customize a suit and looked in the mirror. He said, this is the first time I have worn a suit in my life. He went to church to confess, and he asked, God, how would you forgive a person like me.

Then, with his soul in his arms, he went to the hooligans' lair.



In the end, you will see the Eastwood that you are familiar with, the old cowboy, the dirty Harry, the Wilderness Fistful, the old guy who drew his gun and yelled in the unforgivable, he is still the Ice Twood.

He drew his gun in the 21st century, and then pulled the trigger with his soul.


This was the last time we saw Eastwood on a silver screen. He turned around, his aging back still as tall as a javelin.



Goodbye cowboy, goodbye, old guy, goodbye, the last man in all boys' hearts.

    I hope I can also encounter a classic car in my life to help me grow... I can also help him get salvation...

    The old cowboy's starring curtain call, the hero's twilight feeling and the guilt on his back are the same [unforgivable], and the friendship of the teenager is similar to the [perfect world]. In addition to the issues of life and death and precepts and deeds, it also involves issues of generational separation and race, and the ending shows a sense of salvation. | Finger pistols | Three essential tools for killing people during home travel: forceps, strong tape and WD40.
