After reading through fire and water, this style is a Texas Western? The protagonist wears dirty clothes, drives a worn-out second-hand car, the police officer has a big belly, wears a golden belt buckle, and wears leather boots. There is a dirt road that leaves a trail of smoke after driving, and all the actors have a strong accent when they speak. To be honest, I can't stand it anymore. One of the two brothers has a criminal record, the other is divorced and is going to rob a bank, an old policeman who is about to retire, and an Indian The assistant began to follow, everything was a bit boring and absurd, but the film gradually filled with the heart-to-heart conversation between the two police officers, the feelings between the two brothers, and everything the younger brother planned to leave property for the children and ex-wife, all made this atmosphere The completely unfamiliar film is full of people. Later, due to an accident, the two brothers came to a big town to rob and the locals hunted down because they shot and killed two people. In the end, the older brother, who was already a habitual criminal, let his younger brother escape and started fighting against the police, right. In the process, he shot the Indian policeman, and was finally shot in the head by the old policeman. In the end, the old policeman retired and found his younger brother. The younger brother confided that poverty was like an infectious disease. Finally, he left the oil farm to his children. He robbed the bank. It was the bank who robbed him first, preventing them from turning over, and the desolation and greasy feel of the entire film made you feel pity for everyone, and then everything became excusable and even tender. I don't know if it's absurd exploitation that destroys life and human nature or human nature a little bit corrupts justice and justice~

The police in the town are in hot pursuit. The elder brother stopped the car, took out the machine gun from the center of the road and repeatedly shot at the police convoy. beat back……

    Bad government and bad people, the details and atmosphere are a little bit worse, anti-climax, open ending.
