"Do you know my poetry?" "Do you have sometobacco?" Shall a man depart the world withdignity? Will he ever be understood or recognized? "Dead Man" itself provided us with a poetic answer, that is he will never be alone . Stranger new in town, stories like this we must have heard a lot. With a quick burst tongue of fire, Williamdescendedonto the pinto but he ascended into his very journey of spirit. A defiler and anabolishedman in the cannibal west, with aachallenge of losing identity and a threat of death. William's fate led him to another man who also lost his identity. Two lonerangers' journey started off whimsical and cynical. Until William's anguish made him realize his true state of life, when oneuprise, it shall be graceful. After single handedly raising his own bounty,William seemed to understand what really lies behind the roughedge of the wild west and the grumpiness of its spirit. Enthralling black and white perspective, "Dead Man" taught us how to distinguishinjustice and loyalty but also offered us an atrocious experience of viewing. Greatcolonialismbrought us the ripeness of this land and sadness to everyone else. Each white person's death was an rigorous remedy to a greater reconciliation. Every scrupulous steps William took after his realization, especially when he was laying down with the deer was a soul-trembling shot. It is so hard these days for people to have the heart and effort to understand and learn from each other, but William learned from "The eaglenever lost so much time as when he submitted to learn from the crow." What a subtlemetaphor,the colonists as the eagle never for a momentthought about learning from the crow, as they call them "Redskins". Instead, they brought plagues and bodies. Only if they knew that they have always been on the losing side. By witnessing William's transcendent and unflinching will and desire, and he turned death into hisfearless weapon. His journey was gifted with friendship and blessing. As a matter of fact, little did we know that "Nobody's death at the end means that no matter what happens, loyaltylies in both of their veins . Only if we can live with a righteous purpose and a kind heart , then bleakness of this world will fade.By witnessing William's transcendent and unflinching will and desire, and he turned death into hisfearless weapon.

    "The metaphor itself is not important because of how to interpret it. The important thing is to discover the metaphor, and the connotation of the metaphor may not be clearly expressed by the interpretation itself." Interesting film

    From Nobody seeing Blake's death omens to Blake's death with the stationary ship and the flowing scenery, it shows the process from being killed by the history of human tools to returning to the original freedom of suicide, and at the same time, this highest level of death is related to The imagery of the movie is connected - the opening scene Blake sits in the train leading to the land of death. There are kerosene lamps, playing cards, clocks and Americans in the civilized world. Blake, tired of travel, looks out of the window and turns into a window reflection of the screen. In the original world, the music that sometimes appears outside the train (and disappears once transferred to the inside of the train) repeatedly hints at the viewer's perspective of the movie, which is fearful and curious, prying and dodging, not in tune with Blake's feelings. , but Blake is the audience himself from the start, and the film doesn't greet you so graciously, but quietly encroaches on the audience. As the audience gradually changes from passive to active experience of death, Blake (the audience) removes the glasses, the last product of the civilized world, and sees the truest side of the film to meet the sweet death.
