This film has a dual perspective

"Reality" and "illusion", stage plays and movies, Europeans and Indians.
This is not my favorite of Jamush’s films, but it is the most ambitious and the most ambitious one. It makes the topic of cultural conflict deep into the senses and worldview, and then disappears at the end of the nerves. All the killing scenes are so peaceful, you can hardly distinguish the dead from the living. The iggy pop in the wilderness, the fake stars in the small town, the paper roses, and the william blake who writes poems with guns, is it true that our common sense is more real or the movies show us more real?
Don't be confused by the truth, because we don't have time, we can only move forward, kill everything that is blocking the way, and embrace a dead deer. Our blood is the same as all blood, whether it is the roar of the machine town or the snow where the corpse lies.

    The one I didn’t like very much, I liked “The Limits of Control” quite a bit. I was about to fall asleep in the middle of this one, and the second half was good. In addition, I learned about William Blake, an American poet...

    In fact, I feel so stubborn about the soundtrack, I don’t think it’s just that kind of instrument. What’s so good about it, I’m tired of listening to it after a while... The two lightning bolts on Depp’s face are very handsome~

Dead Man quotes

  • William Blake: I came here to talk about my job.

    John Dickinson: The only job you're goin' to get is pushing up daisies from a pine box.

  • Nobody: [seeing William touching his chest wound] Leave that alone stupid white man.

    William Blake: [as Nobody grints and attends to his wound] Am I going to die?

    Nobody: The circle of life has no ending.

    [Hr grunts as he attends him]

    William Blake: Why are you helping me?

    Nobody: A bird told me.

    William Blake: A bird told you?

    Nobody: A small magical bird with bright blue feathers

    [He pauses]

    Nobody: I was following him in your forest, hoping to acquire one of his indigo feathers... and then I lost him... and then I found him again. He was perched on your chest tasting your blood. He looked at me. Then he flew directly west in a straight line - his small beak red with your blood.
