One of the most classic American westerns. It explores the themes of wilderness and civilization, wandering and returning home, heroes and growth, rule of law and rule of man. The protagonist of the film, Shane, is a mysterious ranger who has an unknown past and does not know where he will drift. , he accidentally entered a family and became the family's husband's helper, son's role model, and his wife's ambiguous object. During the brief time with this family member, he took off the costume of a ranger and formed a delicate relationship with his husband and wife. The triangular relationship has also become the second father in the child's subconscious. At the end of the film, Shane quietly left after killing the bully who had been threatening the family and killing the bully who had been threatening them. In fact, as the child called out, he actually expressed the complicated emotions of the director. On the one hand, he couldn't bear the hero to leave alone. The side also knows that this kind of ranger will not be able to integrate into the life of a normal family after all, and will eventually dissipate in the dust of history. This is also an elegy for mourning the dying heroic era.

The film is too long, is the western slow life? Is the iron man tender? Didn't feel it! Unfeeling Westerns.

The western scenery is picturesque and the performance is crazy. The simple story is even more crazy. It embodies all kinds of hematemesis in the classical studio era. More than 80% of the movies, this is really a bad old man's review list, focusing on the status and historical significance of the rivers and lakes. At least half of the movies made me have the urge to hit the wall. . .
