I really like this kind of slow-moving footage. It has the beautiful scenery of the western world, and it is more about class struggle. Cows are like the rich exploiting the poor. The less and less milk, the less and less valuable. Stealing milk is like rebellion. , you can resist as much as you want, but you can't escape the guns in the hands of the nobles. The friendship between the two starts from a piece of bread, and uses stolen milk to make bread and sell it to the rich, more like a satire, starting from the movie I knew the end of the story, but I didn't expect it to be like this. The director didn't give the ending, but it was obvious that the ending of the movie was really beautiful. After the two escaped, they depended on each other again. That sentence I have got you, they will be together forever. .

    A gentle anti-western film, temporarily this year's new film favorite. Kelly Leichart is becoming more and more skilled, the story is not hurried, romantic and sad. The plot itself is not particularly complicated, but because of her consistent realistic approach, it adds some flavor of life, such as returning to that era. Watching foreign media constantly cue "Hana Village", the visual style is indeed somewhat similar. A story that is both cruel and gentle, especially at the end, is very aftertaste. It's really a very comfortable movie, and it's also a rare masterpiece this year.

    I can't completely agree with any overly serious interpretation of the film. In fact, judging from the pattern and tone of the whole film, it is still a work that is more lovely than serious, and expresses more perceptually than rationally. At the beginning of the film, there is such a chewy shot: After Alia Shawkat finds two dependent white bones, she is not surprised or dignified, but smiles. To some extent, this shot can be regarded as Kelly Reichardt's statement on this fictional story. ★★★★
