One of the most classic American westerns. It explores the themes of wilderness and civilization, wandering and returning home, heroes and growth, rule of law and rule of man. The protagonist of the film, Shane, is a mysterious ranger who has an unknown past and does not know where he will drift. , he accidentally entered a family and became the family's husband's helper, son's role model, and his wife's ambiguous object. During the brief time with this family member, he took off the costume of a ranger and formed a delicate relationship with his husband and wife. The triangular relationship has also become the second father in the child's subconscious. At the end of the film, Shane quietly left after killing the bully who had been threatening the family and killing the bully who had been threatening them. In fact, as the child called out, he actually expressed the complicated emotions of the director. On the one hand, he couldn't bear the hero to leave alone. The side also knows that this kind of ranger will not be able to integrate into the life of a normal family after all, and will eventually dissipate in the dust of history. This is also an elegy for mourning the dying heroic era.

Insist on the struggle and failed to follow through, and the result still had to rely on mysterious passers-by. Here comes a paradox. If Starrett is seen as a righteous defender of rights, where should the earlier Aboriginal people be placed? From this, Shane's disappearance is also reasonable. Wine and meat have passed through the intestines, and the light of America will last forever. The Legend of the Giants three years later also failed to hit the mark. Let's touch it again, the early prototype of Chaoying may have originated from the western movie.

Joe Starrett: Looks like your friends are a little late. What are the Ryker boys up to this time?
[points a rifle at Shane]
Shane: Ryker?
Joe Starrett: That's what I said.
Shane: I wouldn't know a Ryker from your Jersey cow.
Joe Starrett: Don't forget to close the gate on your way out.

Rufus Ryker: I don't want no trouble, Starrett. I came to inform ya. I got that beef contract for the reservation.
Joe Starrett: Did it take this many of you to tell me that?
Rufus Ryker: I mean business.
Joe Starrett: Then you tend to your own.
Rufus Ryker: That's just what I'm doing! I'm telling ya now, I'm gonna need all my range.
Joe Starrett: Now that you've warned me, would you mind gettin' off my place?
Rufus Ryker: Your place! You're gonna have to get out before the snow flies.
Joe Starrett: And supposin' I don't?
Rufus Ryker: You and the other squatters...
Joe Starrett: Homesteaders, you mean, don't you?
Rufus Ryker: I could blast you out of here right now, you and the others.
Joe Starrett: Now you listen to me, the time for gun-blastin' a man off his own place is past. Why, they're building a penitentiary right now...
Marian Starrett: Joe, that's enough.
