      Talk about this movie

      Thousands of miles to the Rong plane? ? ? The first half of the sentence is not relevant, and they are not going to participate in the war. These people are probably fleeing, fleeing from things or places they don't know what it is. I agree with Guan Shan. Although I have recited "Mulan Ci", I really can't think of such a poetic translation of the name of a foreign film. impressive! ! !

      The film is one of the American genre films - Westerns, and I always feel that the word genre is a...

      Operation

      First, I don't like Westerns. I'm just too proud of my efficiency in writing in a day.
      Second, as the title says, this is homework.
      Third, turnitin has been uploaded, so probably don't copy it directly.
      Fourth, when the score comes out, I will talk about it if it is good.

      Watching Notes - "Flying Off Mountains"

      1. Although it has the base of the original "Ball of Suet", the play is still excellent, and every plot point, every conflict between reality and expectation is reasonable. 2. The characters are also in different poses and without idle writing. By analyzing the differences between the beginning and the end of the film, we found that each character has produced positive changes. 3. This film truly embodies what Shatz said the film offers a binding ideology experience, with bankers, cops,...

      The Origin of Classic Westerns

      1. In 1939, "Flying Over Mount Guan" marked the beginning of a full-scale prosperity of westerns and the establishment of "classic westerns". The film was nominated for five Oscars in 1940 and won two awards for Best Supporting Actor and Best Score. Western is one of the oldest styles in American cinema, that is, a film based on the background of the American West and the development of the Wild West by Americans in the second half of the last century. It has a concise heroic story and...

      Guanshan Feidu, a good name!

      "Flying Off Mountains"

      1. The western film shell is matched with the Golden Fleece road film type. The literary drama is mellow and the martial arts drama is fierce. It is really a model of the genre.

      2. Does this movie always remind you of the scene of a carriage speeding in your mind? This is the classic charm.

      3. There is a bit of dual protagonist mode, but the destination of the two protagonists is different, which makes the scenes a bit messy.

      The protagonist of...

      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...

    Evaluation action

    Although there are not many shots of Indians directly appearing in the film, the tension and horror they bring throughout the film. The film uses various methods such as lens language, music, and service to deface and symbolize the image of Indian An people. "Stagecoach" represents the themes of mainstream Westerns and attitudes towards Indians. In the conflict between the inside and outside of the film, Ford, as the master of the epic...

    • Henry Gatewood: So you're the notorious Ringo Kid.

      The Ringo Kid: My friends just call me Ringo - nickname I had as a kid. Right name's Henry.

    • The Ringo Kid: That was my kid brother that broke his arm. You did a good job, Doc, even if you were drunk.

      Dr. Josiah Boone: Thank you, son. Professional compliments are always pleasing.

    • Marshal Curly Wilcox: Now folks, if we push on we can be in Apache Wells by sundown. Soldiers there will give us an escort as far as the ferry. Then it's only a hoot and a holler into Lordsburg. We got four men who can handle firearms - five with you, Ringo. Doc can shoot if sober.
