Harmonious ending

The search process is difficult and full of love and hatred. The harmony at the end seems to belong to white people, but it may pretend to be a metaphor—a certain degree of reconciliation and blending of races.

Moreover, Martin himself has Indian blood, let alone Ethan’s abducted niece’s absurd recognition of the “thief” as the husband’s racial “rebellion”, which may also imply a spirit of racial compromise.

The soundtrack, sometimes gorgeous and sometimes maddening, is like the thousands of styles in the western grasslands, and it is like rolling yellow sand. My illusion: The soundtrack and dialogue style is very similar to the film "Gone with the Wind", and it contains a strong sense of vicissitudes of history.

    Tall and silent in the desert sunset, John Wayne is destined to make a name for himself in the history of film. The contradictory human nature and racist reflections reflected in him make him add a layer of humanistic speculation in addition to the charm of the screen. Ethan rescued the Indianized Debbie, but he also began to be bloodthirsty like an Indian, and there was already a bit of thinking about "when is it time to repay the wrongs". The door frame silhouette is as classic as rumors, it separates the two worlds of whites and Indians, but leaves a bit of chaos.
