6.8 The film failed to find its own narrative focus. One is that the foreshadowing logic of the backgrounds of several female characters is slightly confusing and inefficient. The other is that the film switches from the female perspective in the first two scenes to the male perspective through a shocking turn. But these two perspectives have two completely different connotative features, resulting in a strong sense of separation. But the mood that the film wants to maintain is coherent, a...

I admire Tommy Lee Jones for this script, he played with the unexpected change of narrative perspective, which also led to the rupture of the character growth arc, and he obviously didn't care, which also caused the film to have an emotional gap, so No one can stand up. This film is full of gimmicks in the play, but Oscar still prefers the "hero with a thousand faces" style narrative routine, which is too independent experiment....

The story as a whole is not very interesting, it is really difficult to shoot...

The photography is amazing, many scenes are shot like oil paintings. Originally, I expected to dig deeper into the relationship conflict between Swank and Old Litou, but I did not expect that after a fateful handover, Old Litou was left alone to move forward. The awakening of feminist consciousness in the pioneering period of the west has basically been covered, but it always feels a little bit calmer than an outburst of indignation, and the dance and gunshots that I tried to remedy at the end...

The first half rarely shows the road of women's blood and tears in the historical journey of the west, but the second half is unexpectedly transformed into a male perspective to complete the narrative. The hidden women, from vigorous struggle to silent oblivion, are victims of a deliberate way of writing...

The plot reminds me of Lan Lan's adaptation of Faulkner's "As I Die" last year. The journey from the west to the east of the United States that has experienced hardships, the contrast between the west and the east, highlights the hardships of the western development in that era. Tommy Lee Jones and Swank's performances are sincere and moving, hotel fires, dance and gunfire are interesting, and photography and soundtrack make this work even more soulful and...

Very scattered and sudden, almost fell asleep in the first half, why is Aunt Swank now a wild orangutan character, even so, if you can't brush your face, just skip the characterization and...

Produced/written/directed/directed by Tommy Lee Jones, "six Oscars among the three actors". Wild, scorching. It's a pity that my film festival is too tired and out of shape. I'll make up for it in the...

The tragic epic of western women! Very realistic style, photography gives people a sense of despair, such a barren plain and desert, such a group of people, especially after the heroine commits suicide, it is even more fateful and cruel and ruthless in that...
