    This is the real history of the West, and it is the history of America. The opening is Gene Autry + satirical American Westerns, Near Algodones is Leone, Once Upon a Time in the West, Macaroni Westerns; Meal Ticket is too awesome, borrowing the past to satirize the present, today's audience is similar, and today's capitalists are the same; All Gold Canyon was shot in the birthplace of the Gold Rush, which perfectly demonstrates the values ​​of American individualism. People destroy nature and...

    It's uneven, and it's a really bad part in the Cohen dimension. The difficulty of accumulating six short-form genre reversals is exponentially more difficult than maintaining one feature-length genre...

    There is really no one who has the potential to draw long films. Besides, with so many stories accumulated, it is impossible to make so many long films in this life, so let's just take it all in one pot. Personally, I like the first story that is the happiest and most ridiculous, followed by the fifth story about the history of the girl wandering on the grassland. The fourth adaptation of Jack London's short story "Golden Valley" starring Tom Waits is the least Coen brothers style. In addition,...
