The plot itself cannot be considered too tight, but the director has repeatedly stated that the story is not entirely true. For example, when the plot cuts back to the dialogue between the old man and the child, it is intended to imply that the story is fictional. In the section of the bombing of the bridge, there is an obvious reminder of the child taking the initiative to complete the story: the child is our audience, we need to cooperate with the old man (director) to finish the story and tell the story, so that we are happy, and the director (the old man) also Drag a tired body to complete the work (the old man is a staff member of the park).
However, the old man was not satisfied with this. At the end of the film, the old man threw a bullet to the child, like the fantasy drifting of the youth pie, so that everyone should not pay attention to whether the story told for more than two hours is true or false. It's good to see everyone, and it's good to relax. If you want to be serious, then give you this bullet and tell you the real story, a very different story:
the origin of this bullet is mentioned in the film. It was forged with the badge of a dead trooper, handed by Indians to lawyers (law, justice) for revenge (justice) bullets. In the story, the bullet finally hit the evil big boss bizarrely, and the ending was happy. But the bullets that are fired can never come back, ever. Outside the story, the old man threw the bullet to the child, which implicitly showed that the bullet was not fired, the blood of the mounted police was sprinkled in the Gobi Desert, there is no realization of revenge, and there is no justice. There is no punishment due to sins. It is based on barbarism and crimes, on the blood and sweat of slaves and laborers in Africa and Asia, and on the slaughter of native Indians. The historical process of modern Western civilization is impossible. changed. Without the bullets fired, there would be no story of the protagonist Hammer's revenge for his brother, and no story of Depp's revenge for genocide. Therefore, the wonderful train fight at the end is a brain supplement, the exciting William Tell is an auditory hallucination, and the protagonist's great wisdom and courage only exist in the imagination.
So what's the real story? Depp caused the genocide because of a watch. He survived alone. He wanted revenge but was powerless. In order to make a living, he had to play the role of a native Indian. Although he was unwilling, he could only make up stories and listen to children. Does that white lone ranger, that masked hero who holds the theory of government and single-mindedly upholds the law and achieves justice exist? Don't know, but all we know is that the revenge bullet didn't get fired.
This story is not beautiful, not beautiful at all, just like the true story of the cannibalism of the young man, it does not make any sense to shoot it; no, it is better not to shoot.
Since the real story exists and the director understands it, what does this real story show? What drives human progress is interests first, interests second, and interests third. Applying the plot of the movie, based on violence, brutality, and massacre, the group that got the silver mine (interest) established the government, controlled the country, and formulated the law, which was covered under the stiff suit. British, French, Americans, Spaniards, Portuguese, no exceptions. However, can a modern society built on this foundation have fairness and justice? Will there be good fruit from the evil flower? This issue is not discussed here, but we need faith, firmly believe in the existence of fairness and justice, and not be swayed by what has actually happened. The so-called people need a little spirit, and this is also called.
After a circle, back to the play. The director gave a relaxing story for two and a half hours, and tried his best to cater to the needs of audiences at all levels. The director is not a philosopher, not as profound as Hegel Marx; the director is not a historian, and he will not repeat a story that only truly existed; the director is not a physicist, so he cannot make every plot so logical and rigorous Then no water will get in. Movies are just movies, we get what we want from them, and the directors get what they want from them. It's cool to watch, and I'm happy to cheer it up; I don't need to be picky if I don't like it, because it's not a lenient act to criticize the movie because it didn't meet the original expectations. If you really have a lot of effort, you can think about how to pull the trigger and shoot that revenge bullet and let it go where it should go. This is a serious and profound question, and I am not joking.
