Texas People Sketch

Dorothy 2022-03-25 09:01:06

The best Western in recent years, bar none

The perfect combination of soundtrack and photography with a high degree of unity

The script is also short and smooth, no nonsense, no brain-burning, this sentence is a compliment. Just tell a story down-to-earth, without dazzling skills, without sensationalism, but touching people's hearts.

I saw some film critics say that this film looks like No Country for Old Man. I don’t know if the po masters have seen No Country for Old Man or Cohen. Except for No Country for Old Man, this film is Western-style, and there is no similarity at all. They all have their own unique perfection. the kernel.

This film has too many amazing details, too many wonderful little characters, the Texas uncle who exchanged coins at the beginning, the fat waitress who introduced the work to Paipai, and the sturdy old lady waiter.

Too many wonderful details to outline the decayed state of the American West, taciturn and inarticulate brotherhood, outspoken cops running on each other, too many unforgettable plots, best movie of 2016

ps. In addition to Captain Pai, his brother is Medivh from Warcraft, and the detective is one of Cohen's favorite actors, Green Toe.
