When a man has money in his pocket, he starts to appreciate peace

Taking advantage of the Spring Festival holiday, I played "Red Dead Redemption 2" on Steam. I happened to think of this classic western movie of the same name, which I have heard of but never watched so far, so I made up for it. The experience was great and I was impressed It has all the western elements that should be in it, such as wilderness, small town, cowboys, Malaysia, cigars, revolvers, gangsters, and all the cool points you want, such as classic BGM, film texture images, "noon has come" and so on. In the process of watching it, I learned that this film is a complete remake of Akira Kurosawa's "Intentional Stick", and I started to be a little surprised. When I think about it carefully, it seems that changing the protagonist's western cowboy identity to a Japanese samurai does not violate the harmony at all. Then I actually felt that the look and feel of this film was actually similar to the domestically produced "No Man's Land" and even "Let the Bullets Fly". I took a look at plagiarism and borrowed it for reference. After thinking about it, I realized that some art is common to the whole world. Obviously, Westerns are only things in the American West, from the fact that the United States prospered in the United States and did not fall in the United States, but on the other side of the world, it found resonance with the East Asian world, which is completely two different cultural circles. These classic images of the American West can be replaced by the Warring States Period in Japan and the Gobi in the northwest of China. In fact, there is not much difference. Now that the scene is there, let’s add some characters of good and evil, and tell a story about good and evil. , a typical western will come out. But I still like this film, just like I like "No Man's Land". After all, which man can refuse the deserted desert where the desert is solitary, the smoke, the long river, and the sunset, and the wanton life of galloping horses and gunshots? The melodious and leisurely whistle sound is not exciting or harsh, but it has a heavy epic feel. The last music that can give me such a feeling may be the tavern bgm of Warcraft. As for the plot, there really isn't much to say, it's an old-fashioned story, and I won't spoil it. This movie is just a mood, just feel it, thinking too much will add to the troubles. For cowboys, what is justice, evil, and morality are all unimportant. After all, justice never declares itself. Maybe I When I'm in a good mood, I can easily make a hero to save the beauty. When I'm in a bad mood, I shoot a few idiots who provoke me, and play a handsome man with a smoking revolver. This big west is so chaotic, it is good to be alive. Only the money in the pocket is the eternal justice. After all, here, either get rich or die, and when a man has money in his pocket, he begins to appreciate peace.

    Western movies and Chinese martial arts movies also have a similar plot - the prawns always have to be long-winded before starting a duel, which means that they will not die so well. . . 7.4
