First Cow Comments

There have been many Revisionist Western masterpieces in recent years, and this one is particularly unique. I was astonished to realize that while watching it, I completely forgot the opening of the film, the fateful ending of the two men; my gaze was always immediate and shared with the protagonist. Maybe it’s really possible to get rid of that opening. The sense of fate throughout the film is self-evident. At the end, the audience will wait for death to come, just as the people in the film no...

7.7 Dangerous, but the West is actually gentle. It's just a little dull. After reading it, I don't understand how it took two hours to shoot. In "Old Dream", the sound of the river is monstrous, and "The First Cow" is eavesdropped ten meters away, and the scenery is beautiful. Is this...

The unnatural opening of the girl who unearths two poignant corpses after the unintentional discovery of skeletons in the jungle continues until the beginning of the 19th century when the two men find themselves in the perils of the sinister jungle and the perils of capitalism. A pure relationship where a man survives like a...

Personally, I also feel that this film is not suitable for serious interpretation. It is mainly placed at the beginning of the film, and the gentle and romantic narrative behind it is more like a key to unlock a dream. It is not a real history but a Fiction is the girl's imagination, her simple yet warm poetic imagination of these two corpses. From the camera lens, the girl's unsurprised reaction expression can be perceived when she finds the corpse. This is her imagination. On the other hand,...

Asians, aboriginals, whites, upper class, lower class people, slow pace, retro noise, very gentle farming text, "We will go soon. I've got you." With the last scene lying together, really love...

Shabby taverns, dilapidated wooden houses, rough fabrics, cigarettes lit by candles. Primitive forests, wet grasslands, abundant resources, and barren life. Chop wood to make fire, fish to feed. Catching beavers, fighting squirrels, picking mushrooms, baking cakes... all the details seem to come from Dennis Johnson's "Train Dream". Only a pair of bones after many years tells a story of friendship in a barren land, leaving behind an eternal tenderness of the cruel world, like amber that has...

If it is adjusted to black and white, and the scene is simpler, it will almost become "The Stranger". Of course, because the complete plot of hunting, western American dream, milk stealing, and escape surpasses the refinement of "Leaving the Soul" that reaches the end of the world and flees quickly, so the temperament and atmosphere are not better than divorce, but it produces more warmth. The same can be asked, have you seen the color of...
