Real man play

The west wind is tight, the man is thin, and the sand is full of horseshoes.

Hu made a ballad as the opening. In fact, the entire history of Western films in the United States is nakedly fabricated. However, emptying out the history of the real West, looking back at the history of Westerns, you will also find many interesting things.

Recently, as a remedy for the once-clouded domestic films, many male plays have been brought to the fore. TV shows have soldiers assault, and movies have assembly numbers. These dramas all flaunt their male character and masculinity.

If you think about it carefully, what is advertised on the surface may be what is essentially missing. Masculinity also has limits. In ancient Greece, masculinity was manifested as the erotic desire between homosexuals, especially the lover's desire for beloved. In ancient China, masculinity and femininity always appeared as the beginning of everything in the world. Thinking about it this way, masculinity has never been a man's patent, nor is it synonymous with courage, fearlessness, maturity and heroism.

Therefore, when we praise a man, it is better to just praise him as "man". This is also true in the West. The highest praise for a man is not to be called a "hero", but to be called a "man". The former is noble, but there is always a sense of alienation and strangeness, which makes people think of Ultraman. The latter is actually a kind and warm compliment. The reason is that all people who call others man should be women. The praise of a woman is tantamount to the gospel of the world. In the Garden of Eden, all of Eve’s praises were dedicated to God and not to Adam. It can be seen that it is such a great honor for a man to be praised by a woman.

The Good, the Good, the Three Men, the ugly, the bad and the good. Specifically, ugly men, bad men and good men. Their order of appearance represents a certain value orientation. A person who is ugly is not as good as bad, but it is indeed not as good as bad. This value orientation is very similar to China. Such as Wu Dalang, Ximen Qing and Wu Song.

Of course, the aggregation of men is not without purpose, the purpose is money. In the process of pursuing this purpose, the process of the appearance of the three men's men's true colors is the process of their intrigue. This process includes conspiracy and trickery, including betrayal, and even cruelty. These methods are despised by gentlemen, but they are the only proof of passage in the desert.

Survival is a man's business. The woman exists as a dependant in the film. The proprietress who dared to fight and kill in the Longmen Inn is after all the best, even just the fantasy of a certain type of masochistic man. The only woman with a long shot in "Yellow" is at the beginning of the movie, the wife of a person who is about to be killed by a bad guy. What she provided to the audience was only horrified eyes and desperate faces, without a single line.

Talented people are qualified to speak. In the West, the only capable people are the Fistful.

The so-called fist is not a person who presses darts for others in China, but is similar to a ranger. Their way of life is themselves. The children of the poor can only live as two kinds of people: one is a pastor, and the other is a robber. This is all determined by the logic of survival. The so-called logic of survival is also the original food chain relationship.

Men are not so good. There seemed to be a lot of people in the soldiers' assault, but they were actually just one kind of person, and there was no personality in the barracks. There seem to be three kinds of people in The Good, the Good and the Good, but they are actually just one kind of person. The difficulty for men is that the more they want to be themselves, they cannot be themselves. What Sartre wanted to say, maybe that's what it is.

    Watching the young soldier pass away, that is great compassion.

    Ford's Western Peak [Searcher] was finished with a beating, because the more I watched it, the more sleepy it got, while Leon's Western Peak [good, bad, ugly] was the more I watched it. I just like this kind of cool movie~~Leone has a sense of humor, and Eastwood's final look is good~~

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly quotes

  • Blondie: [watching the soldiers fighting on the bridge] I have a feeling it's really gonna be a good, long battle.

    Tuco: Blondie, the money's on the other side of the river.

    Blondie: Oh? Where?

    Tuco: Amigo, I said on the other side, and that's enough. But while the Confederates are there we can't get across.

    Blondie: What would happen if somebody were to blow up that bridge?

    Tuco: Yeah. Then these idiots would go somewhere else to fight.

    Blondie: [lighting his match] Maybe.

  • One-armed Union soldier: [Wallace and Tuco are at the train station, handcuffed together] Hey, corporal, afraid he'll get lost? Where's the Rebel going?

    Cpl. Wallace: To Hell, with a rope around his neck and a price on his head.

    Tuco: Yeah... three thousand dollars, friend. That's a lot of money for a head.

    [He flips the soldier's empty sleeve]

    Tuco: I bet they didn't even pay you a penny for your arm.
