old story

I almost fell asleep watching westerns. In fact, I can't blame it. It's really boring and the pace is very slow. And the whole picture is groggy and tiring.
The story is a very classic pattern: the simple farmers were bullied and driven away by bullies, and they wanted to rise up to resist the disparity of power. Then a mysterious gunman came from afar. For some reason, he lived here. The warm kindness of their mothers eradicated the bullies for them, and they continued to wander.
The most touching part is the part before the climax. Joey's father wants to fight the bully alone. Shane tries to stop him. The two of them fight and lose both. In the end, Joey is knocked out, and Shane solves the trouble by himself.
A very real character is that although Shane has good marksmanship, but his boxing skills are average, he will also be injured, and the viewer will feel pain when he fights with people.
The whole film embodies the truth of "the world's kung fu is only fast and unbreakable" to the extreme. The music in the few minutes before the climax has already rendered the emotions very much, and the final decisive battle is just two shots, which is very fast, shocking and high-profile, and it is a good way to deal with it.
What I don't understand is why Shane took so long to shoot on the way to the showdown? Constantly switching between the little boy Joey, the dog and Shane to strengthen the emotions between the characters?

    Hollywood type movie Western Zhang Mazi: "Huang Shilang, you have lived a long time, your era has passed" Huang Shilang: "Oh? My era has passed? What about yours? Zhang Mazi" Zhang Mazi: "The difference is that I know this." Well, to be honest, I've seen so many westerns and talked about so much in the book. When I watch this film, it feels like a spoiler, oh , it's the hero, oh, it's the community, oh, it's the American dream of honest labor, oh, it's the bully, the symbols are so familiar that it feels like two hours is a long ordeal, when the narrative doesn't engage you , you will feel that its various audio-visual methods are really boring, especially the music is extremely loud and exaggerated, only when the hero bully talks at the end does it feel a little interesting, forget it, after all, in 1953, it should have been like this, already It's amazing that the contradiction between the hero and the community in the film is completely covered up, which is a little bit different from "Noon" in 1952.
