    A retro and innovative western movie! As a western film, it is full of black humorous verbal warfare, and anti-traditional elements of feminization and de-heroism, but the spirit throughout the film can still maintain the fearlessness of the western style. In addition to the wonderful performance of the actors, Roger Deakins, the old partner of the Coen brothers, his photography and mirroring is the soul of the film.

    It's the most tender movie of the Coen brothers I've ever seen. The ten-minute ending of the film, Old Jeff's heartfelt "I'm old" is really teary... the ending song "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms" sounded, and the emotions continued. Last time The same feeling is still the ending theme of "Brokeback Mountain"...very good, very good.
