The westward movement ended with the construction of the east-west railway, and enlightenment and civilization are the historical destiny of the west. This time Ford was almost calm and terrifying to show how the west has changed. This is a revolution deeply embedded in the people's sentiments of the western society itself. Order does not require war, civilization does not require force, and commercial freedom is required. Don’t monopolize, represent democracy and don’t have power. It seems that everything is realized with the hairline of the senator from the east, but Ford has strongly hinted that this is only superficial, and it is the cowboys that really kills the mob. Enlightenment and civilization are superficial stories, and there is an untelled story...What does the West mean in the hearts of Americans?
The first part of the story is the feelings and aspirations of the people in the west.
It was not without reason that the girl Hallie's heart was finally given to the lawyer. He is gentle, literate and reasonable, and recognizes your rights as a human being born equal, even if the reality is so unequal. If you are illiterate, he teaches you to read books and newspapers. You are despised, he defends you. He speaks of law rather than force to achieve justice.
This is the natural conquering power of liberal Federalists. Even in the end, he betrayed his ideal of civilization and took up a gun to fight the cowboy in a western style.
But Ford created another story, a story that only cowboys and lawyers know
The bullying mob was shot and killed by a cowboy in the dark; the cowboy quietly built a new house for the girl to marry them, knowing that she loved the lawyer and protected him secretly; finally, after she had promised others, she burned the house with a fire, so she didn’t get entangled. ; Encourage discouraged lawyers to continue to run for state assembly, so as to truly bring what people desire in the west.
The cowboy died, and died silently, with only a small coffin to accompany him. How many people remember him? The girl went back and the lawyer husband accompanied her. She quietly and solemnly put the cactus flowers he always gave her on his coffin.
The story of the killing of Liberty Vallance is still circulated in the local area, and the reputation is given to lawyers rather than cowboys. Real lawyers are always a little weak, have no confidence, have many ideals, and always lack so much hardworking spirit and courage.
But the most touching thing is that Ford believes that people still remember the story of a cowboy, and they also love cowboys. Regardless of whom this good name falls on, this is truly a permanent existence, and it is also the most precious thing left to the United States by the West.
Finally, Grandpa Ford is really handsome and can't sleep anymore
