    Western road films, especially in the context of the 39 years, are particularly exciting. A nine-man journey to the west, every character is clear and accurate. Honor is of course charming, so his proposal to the prostitute did not seem abrupt. The ending forced a happy reunion, and it would be better if it was sharp and...

    Ford in its heyday was so optimistic and romantic. Nearly 30 years later, children die at Henry Fonda's guns, distant farms are overrun by railroads, prostitutes become mothers of nascent nations, and westerns finally come to an...

    Very enjoyable, the soundtrack is excellent, the rhythm is energetic, the scene is atmospheric, especially the exciting part of the battle with the Indians, I can see my hair stand upright and my blood is boiling, through the performance of all kinds of different characters, the inhuman class prejudice and discrimination at that time, Ford expressed After a deep reflection on the intention, the love in the film is also very wonderful, and Wayne is very stylish. In the end, the doctor and the...

    The first John Ford. A typical Hollywood textbook example of screenwriting, the vendetta of Indians outside the car and the group portraits of different classes in the car. The rescue of the marginalized (the escaped hero and the prostitute) at the end. Composition, stance, depth of field shots. Compliment the soundtrack. The Indians at that time were just enemies of the wild, and by the time of "Dances with Wolves", they had already stood in their shoes and told...

    The story is cleverly connected through a stop-and-go, accompanied by the thrilling itinerary that will come at any time. Various people, etc., various prejudices and small abacuses are mixed in it. The trials of humanity and the heart are all over the details. The only flaw is the racial bias of the film, which should be caused by the...

    When the horse runs, it is really powerful, and it is difficult to shoot. American-style themes, genre films are still good, I guess American Westerns and Japanese samurai films should be contemporary with the personality and charm given by past stories, but they are still charming, Wayne's appearance is really good, John Ford's Concise flow, if you don't say it, we will get it too. It's nice to have dignity and...

    A standard western with a bit of connotation. In the 1930s, people played the movie like this. The soundtrack is very...

    After watching a few atypical westerns, I went back to the orthodoxy and came to see John Ford, and it was orthodox enough! Limited by the times, the film did not use the wide screen that became popular later, but as the first Western film to be shot on location, for the audience at that time, the battle scene at the climax of the film and the visual impact of several long-range aerial shots were enough People are amazed. The portrayal of the eight passengers is also very...

    This is a work that is still a good film to this day, whether it is from the core, the play or the scheduling of the big scenes (the scenes of the galloping horses in the wild are too difficult to shoot). One car and one river and lake, let him cross the mountain; don't be disturbed by the world, and the true feelings of Huangsha are...

    Great Western Classics Fallen Indians

    John Ford's blockbuster film, boldly used all the montage techniques of the time, had a strong visual impact on the audience at the time. In the 1929 Soviet documentary "Man with a Camera", the camera was placed in the rails to shoot the train running from the front. The audience at that time was...

    timeless western classic

    At first I paid attention to Stagecoach because I hoped to use this film to analyze the style of classic Hollywood soundtracks in the 1930s, but I did not expect that this film, which was released in 1939, would make me, an audience from 2021, so fascinated.

    First of all, starting from the name, the...
