Cowboys have never been boring. In the classic opening scene of the film, three cowboys of unknown origin came to the train station. When they waited for the train, they collected water from the brim of their hats and played with annoying flies. These boring little movements were especially magnified and recorded by the director. The unoiled windmill at the station creaked and croaked at the same flat rate, and this specially amplified environmental sound also strengthened the overall monotony. And when the harmonica sounded, when the man stood on the other end of the railroad track, the important moment came. And only then, their eyes are firm. Before this, and all the moments since then, it is like the cohesive part of a third-rate novel, long and tedious.
Before the duel at the end of the film, Sean said, "The Lone Ranger is cutting the wood now. I think when he finishes the wood, something big will happen." That is an important moment for the Lone Ranger, they always What are you waiting for? At that moment, you can see every movement of your opponent's fingers, the reflected light of the sun on all cross-sections when the pistol is unsheathed, the position of the heart, and the beating of the eyelids. That moment is continuously extended in their lives. In the days to come, even if they have no children, no friends, even if they can’t tell, that moment will pass through their minds thousands of times, re-experiencing its pleasure , Whether it is hatred, contempt, or greed.
The film gives an end to the once symbol of strength of cowboys, but it is not capable of putting an end to boredom and violence. Frank confronted him in Mr. Train's carriage. The atmosphere was very tense, as if he was about to draw his gun at the next moment, Mr. Train took out a wad of swords from the drawer. This is a change of times, replacing pistols with money. Unfortunately, the side effects of money can only be greater, because it can stimulate the most common desires of most people. After that, although people stopped practicing guns, they learned more to fight for fame and fortune. It looks very busy, but it is still empty and lonely.
In boring times, there is no good or evil, some are just ugliness.
The Lone Ranger said: "I'm finished. I don't know where to go. My life ends here."
