In the first half, the atmosphere is rendered with great force, with surging drum beats, beating heart strings, and disturbing dog barks. The audience's mood is like an expanding balloon, which is vented under two or three quick cuts of gunshots. . Short, clean, neat, and quite the duel of a Western.
