The film was born in the context of the prevalence of McCarthyism. The author is talking about the West. It is said that John Wayne was furious when he saw it, so this is an anti-Western film. The length of the film is equal to the length of the story, which shows that the screenwriter has edited it well. The most impressive thing is not the final shootout, but the image of all beings between the obvious good and evil, marshell can escape but not escape, face the challenge; the bad guy seems to be more popular in the town than the sheriff; the lawyer can't help; the woman Did you forget that before the sheriff came to the town, women and children knew that they didn't dare to go to the streets? However, what the men and the mayor considered was the economic investment of the town; the one who firmly supported the sheriff at the beginning also withdrew after seeing no other response; only one teenager was willing to stand on the side of the sheriff. The clock is ticking, and the sheriff is sweating on the town's deserted avenues alone and helpless—with little help. Aren't we the silent majority? Knowing that the evil will not be eliminated sooner or later, he will not dare to take to the streets. For the time being, as long as he does not threaten himself, he will live on the sidelines, even black and white. Alas, don't we all live in such a small town? How many people can get rid of that badge?
