classic of westerns

The Chinese translation of the film title is not technical, and the actions of the protagonist in the film are completely different from the redemption of the old Chinese society.
In the first part, he can be regarded as a knight who sees things wrong. In the second part, he is a bounty hunter who hunts down criminals for money. Although he is still a bounty hunter in the third part, he colluded with the criminals. In order to seek more bounty, this kind of action is hardly called good.
In short, the name Red Dead is completely inappropriate, it is better to call the gunman directly.

The plot of the first part is simple but refreshing, the rhythm is neat and tidy, and the introverted performance of CE is very attractive as the only protagonist. In addition to the gunfight, several verbal confrontations with the big villain Raymond Brothers are also very impressive.

In the second part, under the aggressive momentum of another protagonist, Lee Van Cleef, C's restraint becomes a disadvantage. In contrast, Lee Van Cleef is obviously a shrewd and sophisticated senior, and C is more like a reckless stunner. Compared with the first part, the plot is much more complicated, but the excitement has not increased, but it gives people a sense of confusion and illogicality. The final big fight, although the number of people is more than the first, seems to be less intense and exciting.

In the third part, under the situation of the three protagonists, especially the role played by Lee Van Cleef becomes the villain, C's introvertedness has once again become the focus of the whole film - a three-legged confrontation, there must be a regulator, just like the Three Kingdoms if there is no Cao Cao in the center Balance, Sun Liu must have fought hard. In this one, C regained his throne in awe.
The plot of the film is decent, especially the duel scene at the end, where a lot of foreshadowing is made for those short seconds, this kind of meticulous work is beyond the reach of many impetuous commercial films today. And the repeated recitation of the line "There are two kinds of people" is also a bright spot.

In general, the first scene is small but compact; the second film is striving towards a big production, but it is chaotic; the third film is a tragic civil war, the desolation of the desert and the annihilation of the river dam. The momentum burst out, and finally achieved a positive result.

    cowboy! ! ! Does anyone like me feel that the vocal melody at orgasm is very singular? |100710 (2nd) re-watched the English version again, and by the way, there is a 20-minute extra, which mentions the shooting of facial close-ups and so on. That kind of processing is really impressive.
