Romance, Tragedy, and Heroism

It really feels amazing to watch such a classic and authentic western. I love film festivals! ! !

The old man Dongmu is still watching his play, but he didn't expect to jump to Uncle Dongmu decades ago, and his appearance is speechless.

A heroic film. Good man, bad man, ugly man, I have to say that the translation of Chinese names is also very good, with a hint of meaning. When Good man appeared, he marked the good man, and there was a burst of laughter in the film. What's wrong with kindness, kindness can love money, and can conspire with wanted criminals to defraud ZF for money. Although there are entanglements of interests, the goodness of human nature remains unchanged.

There are two scenes that make people cry, the first one is the exploding bridge. Unexpectedly, there is such a history of the American Civil War in such a Western. But the film does not show the sidelines. Because war is cruel. Good man and ugly man blow up the bridge, because such a dangerous and unprofitable thing, the biggest difference between ugly and bad is very clear. Hearing the sound of the bridge blowing up, the general closed his eyes calmly.

Another shot is at the end, ugly man is running desperately trying to find the treasure. But wherever he went, there were densely packed cemeteries. These are not just landmarks, buried in them may be the passing of fresh lives brought about by the war.

It is a romantic film with a slightly tragic tone. And I really like this somewhat dark humor and cool ending. Treasures are real, and heroes or bears get the treasure after overcoming all obstacles. Then, there is no need for a then.
