This is absurd and bizarre, but it makes people feel uncomfortable after listening to the news, just like the kind of uncomfortable feeling when facing a child's innocent eyes. Because this behavior has a long history and belongs to a very old character: keeping promises. Just as children’s eyes don’t lie, honesty teaches adults embarrassment in this day and age.
Tommy Lee Jones gave me the first impression of "Men in Black", and I think his face fits such a movie very well. I didn't expect him to be a director, because Eastwood did a good job in "Millions of Baby". I think TOMMY is a bit chasing?
After watching "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada", I took it. Similar to the editing technique of "Pulp Fiction", TOMMY played an unsmiling cowboy. Sending the body of a friend thousands of miles away, in a place I have never been to before, this behavior can easily be interpreted as paranoia, which belongs to the category of psychopaths. As a believer, he shouldn't be a lunatic, he is just kind-hearted, firm and simple in will. Like a rock, he does not change his mind, and does what he feels right.
After going deep into Mexico, the scene where Tommy suddenly called to propose to the waitress was even more magical. When the old cowboy is hurt, and the old cowboy is weak, it makes people have a deeper respect for this "tough guy" and understand that he is also a flesh and blood body, and what he does is above this earthly body.
To transport the corpse thousands of miles away, TOMMY's focus is not only on "trustworthiness." As the journey stretched, he unfolded a border style for the audience. Seeing how people live there, what a powerful thing is to support them in living in a world that is dilapidated and forgotten by the world. Just as the scene where the blind old man suddenly begged Tommy to kill himself after he warmly entertained them, it was shocking.
Few people in China recommend this film, but I think it is totally worth watching. Because at that end of the world, in such a desolate place, there is such a kind of person who lives so powerfully.
