In the nineteenth century America, the young Bob madly worshipped Jesse, the thief at that time, hoping to become a person like him. When he gradually got to know this legendary figure, the worship became a little disillusioned, and finally he betrayed and shot Jesse.
Towards the end of the scene, the dancer asked him, "Why did you kill him?" Bob hesitated and said, "He's going to kill me." The dancer said with disdain, "The only reason is that you're afraid?" At this time, the music "song for bob" sounded slowly, sad and mourning, he will always live in the shadow left by jesse, even though he killed him, everyone will think bob is a humble coward, even his closest woman is no exception, This huge situation of exclusion and intimidation by strangers is the exact opposite of his original heroic dream, going to two extremes. Bob bowed his head for a long time, as if he didn't know, and said helplessly: "Do you know what I expected? Applause." A innocent smile appeared on his face again, "I was only 20 years old, I don't know how others will see it. , I'm surprised it turned out like this, they didn't applaud."
"He regrets killing Jesse, he misses him terribly, and he wishes he didn't have to kill Jesse to save his life."
"Even when he was walking through his own bar, He also knew that when he walked by, the smiles of these people would disappear."
"He got so many malicious letters that by the time he finally read it there was nothing but curiosity."
"He stayed in the house all day, Flip over the cards and watch your destiny in every k and j."
Shooting jesse ruined his life, he became depressed, and he paid a huge price for his young dream of fame Unbearable, this is far from what the bob who shot jesse was far from expecting, and even he was shot by another fanatic in the end and no one really cared.
