The western epic in the rain of blood

Every time the gunshots sounded, what we saw was not blood flowing out slowly, but blood plasma like flowers, blooming in our field of vision in an instant, and then withering in a few seconds. Of course, there is no way to verify whether it is true or not, because I have never shot anyone in the head with a gun. But such a scene is enough to make our blood vessels swell and adrenaline soars.

Coincidentally, I remembered the blood column that shot into the sky in "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East". Quentin and Tsui Hark are undoubtedly masters of blood plasma.

It is also about the fate of black slaves before the American Civil War. "Twelve Years a Slave" is a tragic realism, while "Django Unchained" is a typical romanticism. Luckily Django meets a German Schultz, a bounty hunter. Under his tutelage, Django grew into a new bounty hunter, a sharpshooter. Because of this, he has the capital of revenge.

Humans have two goals in life: to keep themselves alive and to keep their genes alive. So Django started looking for his lost wife after he had enough food and clothing. And his wife is in the hands of Calvin Candy, the owner of the candy manor.

When the tyrannical village owner turned around, the slight dissatisfaction I had been feeling since watching the movie was calmed down at this moment. Actually, I came here just to see you.

With Leonardo around, I would never feel like a play.

The scene of punishing the fugitive slave is the first confrontation between Django and Candy. Candy wanted to humiliate the fugitive slave D'Artagnan as much as he could, in order to kill him. And Django and Schultz told him plainly: You're just pretending. This upset Candy.

But Candy remained polite, because the other party represented a big business. No matter how hard you act, you won't have a hard time with money.

At the banquet, Candy's loyal old slave discovered the true intention of Django's side, so Candy and Django's side had a second exciting confrontation. It was a wonderful one-man show by Leonardo. On the surface, he dashed his opponent dashingly, and Django's side was almost a complete defeat.

In fact, Django managed to buy back his wife, although the price was a bit high. But to apply a common sentence in our idol dramas: Our love is not measured by money!

The third confrontation, in Candy's study, was provoked by Schultz. Starting with the writings of Alexandre Dumas, Schultz debunks Candy's disguise. What a French fan, it's purely a pretender! Candy must have Schultz shake hands with him to complete the deal, and tell him clearly: On my turf, I'm the boss.

So the confrontation turned into a bloody battle. Both Schultz and Candy were killed, and there were countless casualties in the hall, with only Django surviving and being captured.

When the witty Django returns, he has become a cowboy hero. He draws his gun handsomely, kills the enemy smartly, and then saves his wife calmly, all in one go. We don't know where Django ends up far away, but at this moment, he's the real winner in life.

A sad love story, a tragic western epic.

Throughout the history of film, Lao Mei never shy about those ugly chapters in his own history. The reappearance of those unbearable stories at the time is also a wake-up call to the present, after all, the issue of race is still acute at the moment. But only by facing up to the past can we absorb experience and face the future. Otherwise, such a country has no history at all, and some are just similar reincarnations.

So, we still have to improve our posture level!

Django Unchained quotes

  • Big Daddy: It's against the law for niggers to ride horses in this territory.

    Dr. King Schultz: This is my valet, and my valet doesn't walk...

    Big Daddy: I said, niggers on horses...

    Dr. King Schultz: His name is Django, he's a free man, and he can ride what he pleases!

    Big Daddy: Not on my property, not around my niggers he can't!

    Dr. King Schultz: My good sir, perhaps we got off on the wrong boot. Allow me to unring this bell! My name is Dr.King Schultz, this is my valet, Django, and these are our horses, Fritz, and Tony.

    [Fritz the horse does his bow, making the slave girls giggle]

    Dr. King Schultz: Mr. Bennett, I've been lead to believe you are a gentleman, and a business man. And it is in these capacities that we've ridden from Texas to Tennessee to talk with you now.

    Big Daddy: State your business.

    Dr. King Schultz: I wish to purchase one of your nigger gals!

    Big Daddy: You and your Jimmie rode from Texas to Tennessee, to buy one of my nigger gals, no appointment, no nothin'?

    Dr. King Schultz: Well, I'm afraid so!

    Big Daddy: Well what if I say, I don't like you, or your fancy pants nigger, and I wouldn't sell you a tinkers damn! Now, what'cha gotta say about that?

    Dr. King Schultz: [Django hands his head, Schultz looks at him and looks back up at Big Daddy] Mr. Bennett! If you are the business man I've been led to believe you to be, I have five thousand things I might say that could change your mind.

    Big Daddy: [laughs] Well, c'mon inside and get yourself somethin' cool to drank!

  • Betina: What'cha do for your massa'?

    Betina: So, you really free?

    Django: Yeah, I is free.

    Betina: So, you wanna dress like that?
