Full of men, women, carriages... With a shot, they rush to the ideal land in their own way: single riders, dragging children and women; some carriages are...

      Times are changing, but Americans yearn for "freedom" for a long time

      The story in the film took place during the "Westward Movement" period in the United States, when a large number of Western "pioneers" emerged in the United States during that period. As a Chinese, I have a little understanding of this period of American history, so I would like to talk about the influence of the spirit left by these "pioneers" on Americans today in conjunction with the film.

      "Ambition for the Future" brings out the various characteristics of epic films and western films, and fully displays the heroic spirit embodied by the protagonist through simple and plain stories and characters with clear black and white. This kind of personal courage and ability is a reflection of the American spirit. The big scenes of the film are one after another, which is heart-wrenching, and the audience jumped from their seats in shock at the beginning: when Oklahoma opened the land in...
