The originator of violent aesthetics. How accustomed it seems now, the more it shows how far-reaching the film's impact is. Thinking of my mother's abhorrence of pornographic violence after trying to watch the first episode of Game of Thrones, this is exactly what Peckinpa wants to present real violence: to make the audience hate, reflect and resist violence. The veiled, veiled violence that preceded him would instead attract audiences to the temptation of violence. Quentin, Scorsese, John Woo, Johnnie To, and Takeshi Kitano were all influenced by Pekinpa, but they all lost their original social significance except for Scorsese of the same generation. In addition, an "audience-style" character is also constructed in the film, with the character who is chasing and killing the protagonist to witness the entire story and violence, but it is slightly different from the audience's cognitive perspective, and finally ends with inheriting the entire point of view of the protagonist (director). If they move, kill them. Take the director's signature to stop the audience from escaping the violence that follows. The fight scenes are excellent, with upscaled shots paired with rhythmic but crisp, rigorous editing. The sound is used very well, selectively highlighting the voice in the plot, and repeating it unreal, forming a strong sense of rhythm in the paragraph, and the deconstructed soundtrack is also Quentin's teacher of soundtrack. The text tries to inherit Leone, but the style is completely different from Leone, and the final effect is almost a disaster, and the slow-paced narrative turns from advantage to disadvantage.
