      thieves are right

      2021.05.05

      The plot is calm on the surface, without thrilling fights and earth-shattering scenes, but in the dark, there are surging currents, ups and downs, mainly reflected in the spiritual level, friendship and deception, the transformation of justice and evil, constantly...

      little bully

      This film can be called the sequel to "Tiger and Leopard". It is a western theme that is not common in Spanish movies. It is co-starred by American actor Sam Shepard and Spanish handsome Eduardo Noriega. "The western theme is actually a moral theme. The choices faced by the characters are simple and pure, life and death or freedom, promise, loyalty, courage, justice and even love," said director Matteo Gil. "They do The decisions made are not only dramatic but also educational.” Jill is the...

      black thorn

      At the beginning of the story, Blackthorn is very old, he is sitting alone in the boarding house, writing to the "son" he has never met, in fact he himself does not know whether Ryan is his son, so his signature Just your uncle Butch. At the beginning of the story, he was no longer the man who galloped on horseback, surrounded by many entourages, and his best friends and beauties were all around. He was young, strong, energetic, and strong. Before, he personally sent away his partner who was...

      Alcohol flowing in the west

      The former bounty thief, who is doing both righteous and evil life-and-death transactions, has a legend with unshakable conscience, waiting for his wife and son to return from a distant place.

      The beginning of the story is very cliché, the old man returned with the only money, but was left with no money and horses by a stunned young man.

      And Leng Touqing claimed to be a certain mine engineer and stole money from the mine owner.

      The development that followed was...

      "Black Thorns"

      Looks like a sequel to Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969). Not only the clips of Butch, Sundance, and Etta when they were young are inserted, but the styles are completely different and not very coordinated. For those who have seen the previous work, they will understand at a glance, but those who have not seen it must be confused; Butch intersects with Etta's son Ryan's letters, which is why he returns home, forming a continuation bond with the original.

      Although the film has...

      It seems that I want to shoot the charm of a Western movie, but it only achieves the appearance. There are many serious injuries, and I was shot and dismounted at close range without injury; I was shot through the chest at close range, and the bullet was pulled out to survive; 11 people surrounded and 2 people were counter-encircled and killed several people; the worst is the ending, the silver ticket is from the package. A picture floated out, and the man pretended to hand the bag to the...

      The cynicism of the old man who has the bottom line of conscience is good, and the narrative technique of two lines also makes the whole film have a sense of fulfillment and time and space, but the description of the past is a little thin, and it is obviously unfinished in the...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      James Blackthorn aka Butch Cassidy: Dear Ryan, I reckon you're feeling a little lonely now that your mother's gone. You're too young for something like this. I know she must have told you about me, and I for one never stopped thinking about you. Even though I've never seen you, I'd bet my best memories that I'd recognize you in the blackest night. These past years have been hard on us all. Very few of us are still around. The land were I live now is a good one. Quiet people, peaceful for the most part. But it's not home. That's why it's time for me to come back. Burn this letter when you read it, like you mother would have done, and wait for me. Much love. - Your Uncle.

    • James Joven: [about Etta] She's handy. You teach her?

      Sundance: I don't think anyone ever taught her anything. And it's about time you learned her name.

    • James Blackthorn aka Butch Cassidy: [showing that he took his bullets] You're empty son.

      Ing. Eduardo Apodaca: You son of a bitch.

      James Blackthorn aka Butch Cassidy: [chuckling] Yeah. You should'a heard what they called me in Wyoming.
