Ride with the Devil

Ride with the Devil

It focuses on people who are contrary to the mainstream ideology of a particular era or are ignored by the mainstream narrative. This group of people has conflicts with the society at that time, in terms of identity, values, or historical direction judgments. Such conflicts between individuals and the times make us more naturally concerned about the more ordinary and essential personal, true, vivid, subtle, complex, and contradictory emotions and ethics they are trying to express. It portrays a person, a person in a difficult situation and a tension. The so-called background of the times is the foil here. This is the characteristic of Lee Ang's film and the standard for its selection of scripts.
Even though this is always the case, Ang Lee is changing in the handling of the movie's results. Based on the accumulation of life or repeated introspection?
At this time, Li Ang's performance was still more peaceful and warm, or still more optimistic, even more "hypocritical" and unfree, including the previous "Sense and Emotion" and "Ice Storm." However, the subsequent "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Brokeback Mountain", and "Lust Caution" created more conflicts and environmental oppression. I can feel that he is constantly persecuting himself, placing himself in a more cruel reality, making hypocrisy invisible. "Mensao" will always break out, and power must always be released.
As his experience grows, he may change.

    You didn't say that you won't marry me, a nine-fingered German dwarf winter melon, if you have a carload of gold. I remember what you said. This...I lied to you. Now you are lying to me again? No, I won't lie to you. You just said you lied to me! That time was different, that time was coquettish. What is it now? The truth. The truth is spoken now. - Ride with the devil

    The movie itself is excellent. But the subject matter is not topical enough. The various viewpoints and theories of the Civil War should all belong to the audience of Ang Lee, and it is difficult to have surprises and shocks. For ordinary audiences, using the logic of literary films to make Hollywood war films, the final reaction will only be tedious and boring. So the worst rating is reasonable. The best of the whole film should be after George's death, Holt expressed his understanding of freedom.

Ride with the Devil quotes

  • Pitt Mackeson: Why you little Dutch son of a bitch. You do what I tell you or I'll kill you.

    Jake: [pulls his gun a few inches from Pitt's face] And when do you figure to do this mean thing to me Mackeson? Is this very moment convenient for you? It is for me.

  • Jake: I say what is the good side to this amputation and there is one.

    Jack Bull Chiles: Name it, Jake.

    Jake: Well, you say one day some Federals catch up to me in a thicket. They would riddle me and hang me and no Southern man would find me for weeks or months and when they did I'd be bad meat pretty well rotted to a glob.

    Jack Bull Chiles: That's scientifically accurate, I'm afraid. I've seen it.

    Jake: I'd be a mysterious gob of rot. And people would say, "Who was that?" Then surely someone would look up and say, "Why it's nubbin fingered Jake Roedel." Then you could go and tell my father that I was clearly murdered and he wouldn't be tortured by uncertain wonders.

    Jack Bull Chiles: And that's the good of it?

    Jake: Yes sir, that's the good.
