life sucks. But I can only smile.

Cowboy hat, boots, suit jacket, two pistols. Lazy tone, unhurried pace. Regardless of the anger in the heart, the rhythm of the language that comes out of the mouth is always slow. Why doesn't this kind of English sound fascinating? Go to his Oxford accent. In such a small town, you still have to listen to the slight increase in the tone, and the indifferent tone is interesting.
Although justified is a detective drama, it is more about the life of the people in the small town of Harlan. The entanglement between father and son, between brothers and lovers.
I like AVE. I love that she shot and killed the ex-husband who had been violent to her the day before. The next day I saw Raylan, who I had always liked when I was young. He, then kissed him naturally. Live so magnanimously.
I like BOYD. This first male match, with such dazzling performance, could not win an Emmy Award. No male partner's performance in my impression can surprise me so much. This bad embryo, murder and arson, will not blink his eyes. He never concealed his feelings for his favorite sister-in-law, AVE. The transition after being arrested and released, the acute transition between black and white. The confrontation with his father, the sadness and confusion after his father killed his partner, he played the scene so unadorned, especially in the teaching speech, in one go. I think the actors must be very HIGH.
I also like the hero’s father, ARLO, who has been on the edge of the law for the rest of his life. Relying on the relationship with BOYD’s father, he earns some unclear money, so that I am not like my father, because I am too digging. Jiu Coal suffered from black lung disease and became ill in the coal kiln. He loves his son, but he has nothing to do with his son who is not close to him. He liked his second wife, and for the sake of her being bullied, he beat those bastards with a baseball bat regardless of his heart and thin body. When his son asked him to be an informant, he agreed, while telling BOYD's father another way, secretly crossing Chen Cang. He lived so recklessly to go to his federal bailiff. In his world, there is only Haran, and only living in Haran. Surviving with those he knows is what he cares about most.
And the stepmother of the male lead who just got the best female match. In the first season, she didn't play many roles, and it is estimated that she won the award for the second season's performance. This old poisonous woman is really sturdy and a perfect match with ARLO. The two often quarreled, but they knew each other. They really grew old with their son. Seeing that Harlan's woman really drew her gun at every turn. But it's all sentimental and righteous.
The main line of this play should be the relationship between the male protagonist RAYLAN and BOYD, and their father. These two family relationships, the friendship between the two fathers and children, are really a mess.
In the last episode, the two father and son pairs drew guns to each other. However, Raylan's father was eventually saved by him, but Boyd's father was killed by others.
I read a comment about the small town of Harlan, which has a small population, and my parents basically rely on coal mining for their livelihoods. Raylan and Boyd used to be partners in coal mining together. Therefore, no matter how many times you face each other, or even draw your guns directly at each other, there is a corner in each other's hearts. Always treat each other as partners. Therefore, at the critical moment, you can still trust each other.
After all, it's still about survival and how to survive.
