"Riding with the Devil" 1999 is a very neglected movie, it may be a failure, but I like it very much, because it is too oriental. If it is compared with "Cold Mountain", it may only be considered untimely, not to mention that Ang Lee used a child (Toby, Maguire) to be his protagonist. What's more, a completely negative view of the Civil War is actually far more cruel than that heroic thing. Tired, excerpt:

The "devil" in the title made me ponder for a long time, and finally I took the liberty to decide that the devil is the black man in the eyes of the white people, who can ride with blood in adversity, but I will never forget that this is "riding with the devil". ". What shocked me most in "And" was not that the black slaves refused to be freed, but instead followed their young masters up the mountain to fight guerrillas. I was shocked that at this moment, the white women who came to deliver the food still did not allow the black Grab the food - she can only tolerate black blood for her homeland. A trench can hold two corpses, but not two people can sit at a dining table.
At the end of "Riding with the Devil", the racial differences have not been worn away in the smoke of war, but death and reconciliation have descended on the tired southern countryside at the same time. The soldiers of the Southern Army, who fought side by side, discovered at this moment that in the vast country, everyone could only part ways.

    Two and a half hours is really too long, and I can't say that I watched it very carefully, because the subject is not too interesting. The only thing I want to say is that the male actors are too beautiful, which makes the story even more difficult to read.
