The adventure in the west is not about gunfighting, but about recognizing the self in that wasteland.

A small western town on a vast wasteland, an unnamed bar with a chilling mix of fish and dragons, a personal spear that has been battle-tested, and a steed that fought for the west. These will constitute the most The primitive and desolate world also welcomes visitors to the years of American pioneers.

Just like the promised land flowing with honey, the enlightenment of the "Bible" to the cowboys going west is the joyous journey that engulfed the Puritanism, the relic of the knights, and so on. The West is the land of promises to them.

There is always an unbreakable truth. The worship of the evil is a deviation, and the expectation of the good is the right way. Teaching the good and the evil requires the means. The West is a wilderness to establish order, not to enter a world of order. Therefore, what is needed in the American West is courage, not a master of the sky. The evil one is strong, but the weak must be stronger. Realization Fairness and justice cannot rely on the charity of the evil ones, but the outbreak of the good ones. This is that good and evil have their own boundaries, and the strong and the weak rely on their own core.

John Wayne

To some extent, John Wayne is a kind of "personality label" in the United States. He has a calm, witty, adaptable, adventurous spirit, and a persevering and fearless forward personality. He is the one who drives the cattle in "Red River". The eldest brother who led the team, he is the righteous comrade-in-arms who sacrificed and sacrificed in his old homeland in "Two Tigers and Slaying Dragons", he is a knight and righteous man in "Flying Guanshan", he is a soldier of World War II in "The Longest Day", He is the homecomer who experienced the civil war in "Searcher", the righteous gunman who guarded his conscience in "Dragon and Tiger League", and he is the indifferent, heroic, and unrestrained middle-aged man in "Chariot".

"Slaying the Dragon" has been watched and rated by 55,296 people on IMDB. Even if it has a good reputation, "Red River" released in 1948 has only half of its markers. You must know that this is an old movie from 1959, at least After 50 years, there are still so many people who have found it, to mark and score, or to show that it is the younger generation who still miss their parents.

Putting aside the part of the myth, "Slaying the Dragon with the Red Courage" restores the West to the realm of human beings. People are afraid, hesitant, and cowardly. This is the case for ordinary people. For a while, you can rest assured that you can stay in the same place.

Not everyone can be Wayne, but after all, everyone can do it. This is where the characterization of the movie touches people. You must know that not everyone is born brave, but not everyone will always be cowardly. In the narrative system, the most moving thing is the transformation of the characters, from a bad person to a good person, from a personality to a personality. People hope to see the protagonist of the story become a better personality or find what he is looking for. This is the subconscious need of people, and of course the expectation of themselves. What kind of self you become is a proposition that a person is thinking more or less.

Therefore, the West is a world that can be your own. This is the combination of adventure and endurance. This is the rendering of heroism. From civilians to heroes, it is the spotlight that everyone hopes to shine.

Stripped of all this art, people always retain loneliness as self-consciousness. Loneliness and individuality are the essence of human beings. In one’s heart, only oneself can open up the wasteland, and no one else can intervene. So compared to a gunfight, it is an adventure. Recognizing and achieving oneself in the Western World is even more an extreme adventure.

At the end of the song, the people disperse, the evil one dies, the good one gains his power. Since ancient times, the one who suppresses the evil with the weak lies in the gift of the evil one, and only with the strong can the good one’s righteousness lies.
