Those who are stubborn and romantic

A good movie will make the audience fall in love with everything in the movie. You will fall in love with decent, villain, supporting roles, scenes, music, etc., and then want to recollect it after watching the movie, and even hope to walk into the world in the movie and experience everything that the movie has shaped. David Mackenzie played exceptionally well this time. The emotional concentration between the characters and the heartbreaking plot tension can suffocate the audience. Zhang Yimou was able to shoot "Red Sorghum", Xie Jinneng was able to shoot "Furong Town", and Kurosawa was able to shoot "Seven Samurai". In fact, this phenomenon can be understood and felt reasonable by the audience. Because these directors themselves live in this environment, they can feel the local culture and spirit from an early age. But as an Englishman, David Mackenzie was able to make such a Western film full of Texas flavor. From this point, it can be seen that his directing talent and dedication are definitely not a juggler in the suburbs. It's a real Lianjiazi. The whole film reveals to the audience the spirit of Texas in an airtight manner. An unyielding and stubborn romantic cherishment of the traditional liberalism complex. All of these are wrapped in the director's unique British melancholy tone. The wild and smoky Route 66, cowboys on horseback and cattle, and locals who can draw their swords to help at any time. The western culture, which is gradually declining, is truly shown by the director like a documentary. Xiongye's full western spirit is indeed declining, but he will never disappear. The new way of life is gradually spreading and eroding on this old land. But he will never finish the traditional western fan. Just like the wildfire encountered by the old sheriff Lulu. The cowboy drove the cow and said, "The fire started from the highway and spread to this side." The old police chief said, "You don't need support to fight the fire. Anyway, when you reach the Brazos River, the fire will stop by itself. This wilderness. Ling's, where's the support?" Yes, "Where's the support?" In other words, Westerners don't care about support at all. They can settle their own affairs. The line that points to the feeling of being overweight, "Fire comes from the highway." Why is the highway? It is a symbol of pretentiousness and unnaturalness, and absolutely contradicts the image of a riding cowboy. "The fire stops when it reaches the Brazos River." What is the Brazos River? That is the mother river in the west, which runs through the cultural river of Shuangshan and Salt. The life-saving river that has nurtured generations of westerners. When the brothers refueled, a full-focus lens, large horizontal composition. The panoramic view shows a cowboy riding a horse in the distance, the middle shot shows a young man driving a noisy muscle car, and the close shot shows a cowboy elder brother who is relaxing in the car. Far, middle, and near, a progressive single-frame cross-time artistic technique. The cowboy riding a horse was gone, and the exaggerated noise man came, and then the noise man was beaten to the ground by the modern cowboy. Unexpected The green muscle car and the arrogant boy with a gun, for the cowboy lying in the car to rest, is: "Don't be too arrogant, I warned you." This kind of truth will be thrown hundreds of times a day. Don't pay attention to it at all. The western spirit is cruel, and at the same time it is calm when faced with difficulties. This kind of horse riding in the face of a big storm is romantic. The core thing is the tenacity of the west. The Indian Sheriff said: "Everything you saw before was ours until it was taken away by your grandfathers. Now, everything in you here is slowly being taken away." The Indian Sheriff actually represents a kind of cowardice. When the old sheriff stayed up all night to stick to the door of the bank, he ran to sleep by himself. When the old sheriff ridiculed him, he chose to escape. Such a weak person will never become the master of the Western World, and eventually he died. Faced with the bank's encroachment on their ancestral land, the two brothers did not escape but chose to resist, using their own methods to defend their own rights and interests. Finally they succeeded. In order to protect his younger brother, the elder brother fought against the heroes alone, blowing the mountain breeze and said "the king of the plain is me". His death did not mean failure, but he successfully helped his brother. Maintain the decent family. The old sheriff is like a puma, wise, bold and domineering. This old gun spirit is the main theme of the west. In Lao Tzu's territory, no one will let me go wild. He killed the robber brother and tracked down the robber brother. Also avenged his colleagues. He is gentle enough to the frightened female cashier, and is as strict and loving as his father to his colleagues, and of course he has no mercy on sinners. The green leaves in this film are not superfluous, from the entertainer who has worked for 40 years, to the Indian gambler who meets everyone who is the enemy, from the small town residents who draw their guns to help when the road is unfair, to the calmness when they are robbed. old lady. All reveal the strong sturdiness in this land. The spirit of the West is also warm. The big brother helping the younger brother rob the bank is just because of: "Because you spoke to me." There is no nonsense tasting. The old sheriff found the brother of the robber, and in the dialogue between the two people, he could feel the sympathy of the tough guys. Even if you killed my brother, I killed your contradictory relationship like Paoze. The two actually have a kind of pride in meeting the strong and hating each other and laughing at each other. In fact, the West does not belong to the Indians, nor does it belong to the riding cowboys. People came in a hurry, and then left in a hurry. In the end, this desolate and tough land can only belong to those stubborn and romantic heroes. The spirit is cruel, and at the same time it is calm when facing difficulties.
