who are you?

For many years, I have lost my desire for martial arts novels, martial arts movies, and martial arts TV series. Although some "martial arts" will still be watched, I am not as excited as I was when I watched "Swordsman".

As for American Western movies, I am always interested. Of course, I can’t watch them one after another. It’s still enjoyable to watch a few classics a year. For example, this movie has a fascination like watching martial arts novels when I was young.

The opening atmosphere was exaggerated.

Sergio Leone really likes harmonica or similar music.

The moment when the hostess gets off the train with her hat is very charming, as if Ruth is standing under the Titanic and looking up. Dream ship.

5001 yuan. Many of the details are very exciting and correspond well, such as hot baths, harmonicas, etc.

The Chinese who do chores and dirty work should have been done by black people. The Chinese should have opened mines and laid railways.

Finally, the "arch" hangs and kills the classic scene.

The essence of the Western movie is that no matter how evil the enemy boss is, the protagonist is not taking advantage of the danger or sneak attack, but a fair duel. This is the same as the spirit of Chinese martial arts.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." This theme music is really nice.

The wicked Sean is also principled, but the evil he has done will still be punished even if he has been redeemed, so his ending is doomed. It is because of the character of Sean that makes this film a lot more colorful.

The seaside dream of the railroad tycoon makes this character no longer make a face. On the contrary, the big boss does not count.

The prostitute hostess is also very eye-catching. As far as a Western movie is concerned, it is rare.

The ranger is the ideal pursuit of the Western Cavaliers.

    Maybe I have seen less westerns, so I don't know much about some places. I think Westerns may be a style of unrestrained and happy revenge! The melodious and melodious harmonica is full of affection and reluctance, and the high and intoxicating soundtrack combines the narrative to achieve the expression of affection and the contrast of the atmosphere. In the magnificent and boundless desert, a kind of pride and admiration arise spontaneously, but it also oozes a trace of loneliness. The romantic and soothing narrative, the philosophical dialogue, and the delicate composition should be the unique aesthetic style of Western films. Characters are also good, strong and brave female images, full-bodied cowboys, of course, the most dashing and simple are harmonica cowboys, who have their own principles and pursuits, very handsome! There is a bit of loneliness and helplessness in this film, which is a kind of nostalgia about the spirit of the West. There is always a trace of beauty in the past, which is very good!

    The sound of cheap harmonica. And the slow, unworkable tone, lethargic
