There are common images in Western films, deserts, horses, new wooden buildings in new towns, happy nests and glass bottles for recreation, police and gangsters chasing, trains and newly laid railroad tracks... Amorous girls and wandering the world The man...the
Western mode
The mode of the Western story is always the same: a man who travels around the world comes to a certain town with a certain mission, meets a girl, and instantly falls in love. However, the town is in danger, the man resolutely set out for the girl and his heroic dream, Balabala. Think of the domestic western movie "Double Flag Town Swordsman". For the girl who married her baby, one person fights many people alone, and the victory is a bit inexplicable. The difference is that at the end of the two movies, "The Lone Ranger" continues the linear thinking of European culture (the word is inappropriate), and always has to pursue and challenge other ways of fate, and life will not be caused by one major event. And the end; and "Double Flag Town Knife" does not have any assumptions about the life after the bad guy is cut off, and not saying it does not mean there is no ending. After watching the movie, the audience will directly think of holding the beauty back, and the wife and children will heat up from then on. . ——Life is endless, can not be buried in the price war between leeks and mutton, but can only sigh the unsustainable sunset and dreams.
The content
of the movie The content of the movie is very much like a Zorro prequel, especially when the white horse comes out, and of course the mask. The only extra element is the participation of the Indians. The cause of the war between the black and white sides is directly attributed to the competition between the Indians and the white territories. It seems that this can wash away the original sin of the western expansion of the white people and add a noble aura to the protagonist of the film. . There are also Qing people with long braids in the film - I want to say that the "pigs" recruited from the coast of Guangdong, China (Qing Dynasty) at low prices when the Pacific Rim Railway was built, were transported to the United States in a whole ship, and from then on, they could not return to life and death. Home, this is also the history of the first generation of overseas Chinese in the United States. The family of MR. Luo, the current US ambassador to China, arrived in the United States in this way. There are also related plots in the movie "Dongfeng Break" to express a similar history. The bodies of the piglets that were trafficked in those days could not be returned to their hometowns after they died. They could only ask their family members to buy a coffin and transport them to a righteous village in Hong Kong for worship, and wait for the opportunity to transport them back to their hometown in mainland China. The people's ownership of the land is deeply rooted in their minds and strictly enforced.
There is a lot to be said for the music of a movie .
First of all, the music is very powerful and rich in length. The movement is mainly symphony, which is in line with the visual experience of the remote western film. The music rhythm is compact and changeable in many fighting scenes, and the music style tends to be "march"-style paragraphs. The music, along with the quick screen transitions, adds to the urgency of the audience during the fight episodes.
However, there is a problem. There are too many symphony rhythms in the movie. The fast rhythm and complicated movements make the whole movie climax one after another, but the overall rhythm lacks relaxation and peace, and the audience has no chance to relax within 150 minutes. development and penetration is a negative impact.
In the process of watching the movie, I even thought that maybe what this movie wants to convey is this set of music. It is not that this kind of accidental result did not happen in the communication activities. A movie or even several sets of shots made this music Deep into the hearts of the people, and let the audience ignore the expression of the film itself. In this way, it is really a waste of the planner's wholehearted effort and the appearance of premature aging.
In addition, Disney's film also inherits Disney's usual humor and funny elements, although this is a bit out of place with the original expression of this film.
It's just that there are too many things to express, so more elements are used, so that the most important story of the movie itself is not told well. This is sore.
