Now you can watch it as a western scenery historical film. When turning from the manor in the east to the west, the sky full of yellow sand and the sun is terrifying, but when the plot develops and then turns back to the east from the west, the rough and unrestrained nature of the west appears to be a little jasper in the east. Looking at it now, the second half is too deliberate. But the first half of the characters are interesting. In particular, Elizabeth Taylor, in the first dinner scene, felt that her arms were thick, and when she spoke, her forehead was covered with lines on her forehead, which was so beautiful. But after that, the whole person's smart, petite, charming, sharp wisdom is very beautiful. James Dean re-watched two or three times the scenes of accepting the land and looking down from the elevated ledge of his land. That is the humble and conceited demon who is regarded as irrelevant by everyone, but has a demon in his heart.
