It's human nature

It's my first time to watch John Huston's movie. Still stunned by its sign of human nature. The major stoyline is based on two impoverished people who have lost sight of future. They struggle to make a living even at the expense of the loss of dignity before meeting the old wise man in the bar. He gives them a road to the fortune. When everything is going on well as they think, greedy appears and begins to occupy the dark side of human nature gradually. Ascalation of contradictions become the motivation to take a people's life. And the consequence is obvious, anyone who want to obey the god's obligation will be punished just like the gold whispering in the wind at the end of movie. They will disappear forever with the human nature.

    No matter what you do, you must find a good partner, and if you fail, look away.

    The translated name is excellent, and the story is also excellent. It is a story full of fate and causality, but it is also unexpectedly exciting. There are the opposition between the rich and the poor, the opposition between man and the wilderness, the opposition between "civilization" and the indigenous people, and the good in human nature. The confrontation with evil, the battle between people, and the final ending of the windy Jinsha is too good. The tribute to Kubrick's debut work should come from this. Dashan, but the two protagonists have harvested what they originally wanted. I have to say that this old movie from the 1940s was shot very realistically. It was filmed on the spot, and it climbed mountains and mountains. The gold diggers are not much better than the beggars, and the robbers who are worse than the beggars are beautiful.

  • Curtin: Remember what you said back in Tampico about having to carry that old man on our backs?

    Dobbs: That was when I took him for an ordinary human being, not part goat.

  • Dobbs: Any more lip out of you and I'll haul off and let you have it. If you know what's good for you, you won't monkey around with Fred C. Dobbs.
