He carries a gun with him. Even if he has never used the gun from the beginning to the end, carrying such a weapon of mass destruction and a huge amount of money from unknown sources should give the impression that he is not a good citizen.

I believe Give her a little time, and she can conquer the whole town. In fact, this is also her powerless resistance to good fortune. He is good at using the primitive animal nature of men to arouse your desires, but he is detached from you and makes you linger. She needs one. A man who can truly set her free.

Because of a fork in the road, dry wood encountered a fire, lucky day, which could have been a tear-jerking love film, but unfortunately the director did not follow this routine. After this beautiful encounter, Bobby started his bad luck marathon The story of people who want to laugh and cry without tears kicked off.
The first person Bobby met in this small town was Darrell, a mechanic. Darrell was a joyous man, full of false teeth, sparsely stubble, and his style of dressing and speaking, especially his sarcasm. The laughs are all comical, and Darrell's gangster logic makes Bobby helpless, even a little crazy. His open-ended offer, his ignorance of seeing gold watches as trash, and selling Bobby's guns on his own accord made Bobby very upset. Every time I meet Darrell, it's not going to be good. If it weren't for Darrell, Bobby wouldn't have exploded his little universe, hysterical madness in order to buy a ticket to Mexico. I haven't figured out what game the Left foot red that Darrell played at the end was.
The scene where Jake appeared for the first time was a bit embarrassing. It was originally a passionate scene with Grace's half-push and half-off. The soundtrack and atmosphere were just right. Unexpectedly, Jake suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, shattering their dream of being a mandarin duck and interrupting them. Bobby's nose bridge. Jake is a complete scumbag, murderous, violent, incestuous, sexually abused, and a miser. He can't stand his daughter fooling around with other men, and wants Bobby, an outsider, to help kill Grace, so he can take the opportunity to get a compensation. It's a pity that he never imagined that he would eventually die at the hands of his own daughter, which is quite ironic.
TNT and Jenny are another hilarious couple in the show. Jenny likes to hook up with other men, yearns for a wonderful life in the outside world, clings to Bobby a few times, and even has children for him. TNT can't stand that other men are too close to Jenny, and they will be singled out if they are indiscriminate. With developed limbs and a simple mind, he has only one way to solve problems. Strangely though, he wilted as soon as he saw Sheriff Potter. That is, because TNT ate Bobby's ticket to Mexico and shattered Bobby's only hope of leaving the town, Bobby decided to team up with Grace to kill Jake.
Sheriff Potter is a pure man. He only wants to grow old with Grace, but he is a little timid. He flinches when he meets Jake halfway, and he promises to take Grace away, but he has never written down, a typical ideological giant. , Action Elf.
The blind man is a man of caution, always full of great truths. Because he has always lived in the dark, the blind man understands the darkness and the dark side of the world. Many things cannot be seen clearly by a discerning person, but he can see clearly. In fact, the director also used the mouth of a blind man to show his attitude towards human nature. Every time he encounters a blind man, the blind man will warn Bobby, but he can't stop Bobby from going further and further on the evil road.
Looking back at Bobby, it's really bad, driving a car and encountering a breakdown, buying a drink and encountering a robber, drinking a saliva and encountering a scorpion, opening a bottle of beer and hurting your hand. The pie didn't fall from the sky, but I stepped on a lot of shit. He was originally just a passer-by in the town, but unexpectedly became the master of the story. Under the helplessness and all kinds of fooling, he became a murderer. The director gave him hope again and again, and it was shattered again and again. Every time a problem was solved, a new problem appeared. In order to survive, he finally had to kill Grace and survived cruelly. When he thought he was still lucky, Darrell laughed again, this time Bobby's car broke down forever in this deep mountain.
The story begins with a breakdown and ends with a breakdown. Listening to the film's opening theme It's a Good Day, who would have expected such an ending.
The hot sun, the boundless desolation, the bald eagles hovering in the sky, the billboard outside the auto repair shop has a prominent slogan "Jesus is Lord", people are doing it, the sky is watching, everything has a cause and effect It's not that you don't report it, the time has not yet come, "When the time is right, the creator will pounce on you, to figure out what you are, you are a human being, not a lonely soul in the wilderness", you have to pay for your choice. Bread, love or freedom, no matter what the people in the film choose, in the end, they are all unknown.
