not bad

Finally Dick uttered the truth after drinking. Little Lutz knew that Dick still liked his mother in the end. He closed the door and left silently. A woman can always ruin a man’s life. Finally, Dick might think of an afternoon tea time. Tyler was right. He said that "money can't buy everything" and "that's what you rich people would say", and it has now been fulfilled. The pictures of the film are very beautiful. I think it was Hollywood's classicism period, and all the composition is very regular, like a classicist oil painting. The first few shots of Taylor wearing skirts drifting across the woods are so beautiful. In addition, this kind of slow feeling is also very good. The sense of humor in several parts of the film is not available now. It does not rely on exaggerated performances or gag lines. The embarrassment in the relationship between people is just right, and it is not artificial. Not deliberately, the pause makes people laugh. This kind of laughter brings part of the audience's own life experience in it, which is especially rare.

    An epic western, the three actors are excellent and eye-catching ~ three generations are immersed in the three-and-a-half-hour movie. The parts of Turkey and Aries and Black Bull both made me laugh. The soundtrack and the costumes of the actors reminded me of those old movies I used to watch when I was a kid, and I was nostalgic in the theater for a long time.

    There is no slack running account, and the characters are flat and pseudo-epic. In the second half of the film, I feel that the director has given up, and the rhythm of shooting one paragraph is counted as one paragraph. The part of the racial conflict is still a condescending sense of superiority. Who wants to see the life of the rich and the landowner! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
