The American drama "A Godless Land" is one of the best westerns I've seen in recent years, bar none. I finished the seven episodes in one night, and it can be said that I can't stop. I have always liked to watch American Westerns. That kind of feeling is very comfortable. Watching cowboys carry guns and prancing horses, galloping around the world on the wasteland, enjoying the revenge, feels like our own martial arts world. Some people say that there are three things that American culture can't understand about oriental culture - brothel, imperial examination, and escort bureau! For the Americans, the brothel culture is too broad and profound, and it is not a brothel as they understand it. The brothel girls are all talented girls, and in the ancient times when China entered the WTO with Confucianism, the brothel girls represented love and freedom. There is only one young lady in a brothel. To go to the brothel, you must be talented, handsome, and you must be young and rich, otherwise you won't even be able to see the face of the young lady. The brothel girls can leave names in the official history, such as Li Shishi, Su Xiaoxiao, Chen Yuanyuan, and the famous Liu Rushi. . It's not surprising that this American rough man can't understand. In addition, Western countries have always been governed by religion, and the nobility is divided into feudal systems. There is no way for the common people to ascend. Unless they have outstanding military exploits, they are ruled by those nobles. The various titles of the princes and men have been finalized. After the death of a king, the electorate can be ranked more than 100. Therefore, for China from the Sui Dynasty The imperial examination system at the beginning was also incomprehensible. Once I chatted with an American on the Internet, his understanding of Chinese history ended with the nine-rank system, even the system of filial piety and integrity had to be explained for a long time. Not to mention the imperial examinations. The imperial examination as he understood it was the American-style college entrance examination. After the credit system, if you want to enter a prestigious school, you have to take the exam. The rest of the dart board is even more incomprehensible. In the United States, the founding of a country is to immediately conquer the world, and then the land is vast and sparsely populated. In order to encourage development, it encourages its citizens to develop the west with generous policies. Americans are a nation on horseback. Just come, thousands of miles away, the whole family pulls the carriage and leaves, so I don't understand what kind of culture the Chinese escort is. Moreover, the existence of the escort bureau as a cultural phenomenon is really not fighting and killing, but a game of rivers and lakes in which cats raise mice and mice supply cats. The knowledge in this is something that the straight-forward Yankees can understand. This time, "Godless" is set in the 1880s, the godless age of the lawless American West. The town of La Belle is a mining town. Due to the discovery of minerals, a large number of workers came to this place to form a gathering place and gradually became a town. However, a mining accident killed 83 workers in the town, leaving a large number of orphans. The widowed mother and the few surviving men continue to live in the town. Use time to dilute the sadness. At that time, the Westworld gangs were rampant, One of the largest gangs is the Frank gang with 30 gangsters. Such a wicked man dressed as a pastor and full of Bible teachings! Frank adopted a boy named Roy. He raised him as the adopted son of a moth, thinking he was his successor, but Roy was still in the dark, and he finally had a fight with his adoptive father and the gangsters and interrupted his adoptive father. One arm was seriously injured and he came to the town of La Belle, and was rescued by the town's ranch hostess. And in Frank's anger, he washed several towns that he could see with blood, and let out the words, where to take in Roy, and where not to leave a dog! Due to the betrayal of unscrupulous reporters, Frank finally learned that Roy was in La Belle, and there were only a group of widows and the old and the sick in the small town of La Belle. Seeing the gang approaching, the only foreign aid was slaughtered in the village, and surrender was also dead. The sheriff's sister and the ranch hostess were the main ones. The widows decided to take up arms and fight against this notorious gang of murderers! The rhythm of this TV series is of the slow-heat type, but in the second episode, it begins to become compact, one episode after another, clearly explaining the past and present, and slowly heating up until the last episode, the widows guard the village. A visual feast with climaxes! Wherever the Frank gang went, there was no grass and murderous aura. And the only juvenile deputy sheriff in the town was killed by a flying knife as soon as he went out. There is absolutely no reason for such a lawless person! But the result is to be ruthlessly killed! So take up arms and fuck it! He actually wiped out the famous Frank gang with the old, the weak, the sick and the sick! In the end, Frank and his adopted son Roy shot at each other, and Roy personally ended the life of his adoptive father. The western style of this TV series is very strong! There are dozens of scenes in the film that pay homage to the old Western films of the past. Such as the cool spinning with a revolver in hand, such as a shootout in the street, or an old-fashioned old bar, the faces of the gangsters appear in the shadows, and the law enforcement officer is killed with one shot. I really like this western style. Just like going back to John Wayne and John Ford's "Flying Off the Mountains", there are as many western elements as they should be: Cowboy, Revolver, Gangster, Sheriff, Horse, Cactus, Tavern, Desert, Caravan, Indian. . . . Finally, I would like to talk about courage, no matter which nation, country, or religion, it educates its own people to be brave. Our own culture has taught us to be brave, courageous, courageous, and courageous since the time of Confucius and Mencius. But that's where the ills of Confucianism are. Because the requirements are too high, ordinary people simply can't do it, so everyone pretends to be able to do it, so our culture has educated a lot of hypocrites. And because of the rigidity of Confucianism, refined egoism is derived. This TV series is actually an exposition of the Confucian ideology of "knowing that you can't do it". 'To do something, not to do something' means courage, that is, some things have to be done with one's life, and some things can't be done even if they lose their lives! Easier said than done! When we were invaded by foreigners, we were the only country in the history of the world where the number of puppet troops outnumbered the number of occupying troops. During the Nanjing Massacre, two Japanese soldiers guarded thousands of Chinese people, and no one resisted. The next day Obediently go to the slaughtered thing. Chen Cheng's memoir recalled the Battle of Songhu, and he also cursed angrily: "There are so many traitors!" As soon as the Japanese planes came, the reflections of countless small mirrors on the ground gave directions to the planes of the Japanese invaders! It's the same now, the old man fell to the ground and couldn't help it, keyboard warriors were in power, and fifty cents were everywhere! So what we are missing is not the so-called Yudan and his likes of Chinese learning spoiled chicken soup, in fact, what we are missing is the courage we have already lost! Fortunately, our Confucianism also educates us, knowing shame is almost brave! It is not too late to be ashamed now and then to be brave. It's too far away, I recommend the American drama "Godless", a must-see for fans of Western movies! There are so many traitors! As soon as the Japanese planes came, the reflections of countless small mirrors on the ground gave directions to the planes of the Japanese invaders! It's the same now, the old man fell to the ground and couldn't help it, keyboard warriors were in power, and fifty cents were everywhere!
