surprise

First of all, it's a surprise. I didn't expect to see such a pure western film. I originally thought that some so-called modern elements would be added, such as reflection on what. Luckily not, simple ideas make it brevity and mental retardation, which is so important to Westerns. Unequivocal about killing Indians, this simplicity is hard to see. But I want to repent that I still can't escape the claws of Broke Arm Mountain, and I actually think of the love triangle of several protagonists. . . The following is a serious spoiler for the broken arm version of the dog blood triangle.

Here's the thing, first of all, Ben Wade and Charlie Prince are a loving couple, working together on the western prairie of the United States as a promising career as a bandit. Charlie also affectionately calls Ben Boss, Every time when things are over, C always looks at B with admiration and excitement. Of course, B is not ruthless, and his support and praise for C are also always welcome. Originally, if things continued like this, B and C would one day meet. Dry wood and fire, lovers will eventually become married. Unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway. Dan Evans was originally a marksman. He shared the same language with Ben, and he fell in love with him on the way to escort B. The two cherished each other and found a mysterious emotion beyond friendship. B even took the initiative to stand in the prison van for this. On the other hand, C, who learned that his beloved was captured, showed infinite courage and gathered a large group of brothers to prepare to hijack the prison car. How could I know that at the last moment, seeing a familiar figure who used to run together on the vast grasslands actually cooperated with D to avoid the rescue of the brothers, this anger was really grievance and depression, grief and anger coexisted, and Dan was killed in jealousy. under the car. Poor Dan was in vain with the name of the sharpshooter, and in the end, he was trapped by love and killed by love. Here, Ben saw the tragic death of his new love at his feet, and saw that the murderer turned out to be his old love. Suddenly, all kinds of inexplicable emotions such as anger, sadness, and pity flooded into his heart, and when he remembered the happy scenes with D, he could not wait immediately. He just stabbed C to relieve the pain of losing his love, so Ben swung his pistol, exhausted what he had learned in his life, and shot a sad bullet at his gang of brothers in anger. . .

When I say it's a clean western, I don't mean it doesn't have anything new, but that it doesn't add something traditional westerns can't. Others, whether it's an emotional scene between two men (don't get me wrong, the last one is the last one, this one is this one), or the extraneous part in the traditional search scene, it doesn't destroy its mentally retarded and lovely nature. . Of course, the most outstanding are the most traditional car chase scenes and gun battle scenes. Of course, the yellow sand in the western films is also indispensable. The clean protagonist is unappetizing, and too many female dramas are not authentic. The golden rules of these old westerns have been revived, which makes people compare with today's. Severe decline of social androgen.

The weakening era of Westerns overlapped with the post-war era in which Western society paid attention to equality. The surging feminist movement and the affirmative movement for people of color swept the traditional Westerns showing the world view of white men into the garbage heap of history. Today, male authority and racial inequality have been theoretically bankrupt. On the contrary, the male body display for men has developed from the unconscious display of the male self to an aesthetic display of the male by the other. It's like after changing the dynasty, we can treat the remnants of that era more rationally, instead of discovering their shortcomings and giving them all kinds of hats like the people of the dynasty. Now Westerns are showing a kind of beauty that is missing in this era.

This is a time to set things right.

    The charm of Russell Crowe in this movie is really a spike...the heroic feelings in western movies are my dish (is it because it is very basic?! Puff

    "Sometimes a person grows up to know how small he is" Good movie! ! I was moved to tears by such a Western movie. I have never seen it... "The Battle of Yumatown" is a revival of a Western movie. The excellent acting skills of the two protagonists make this movie full of exciting male friendship. .
