the forgotten legend of the west

William has changed in love and family, from a drunken gangster to a kind peasant who can't ride a horse for a long time. But forced to make a living, and also because of the invitation of the old man's son, he picked up the revolver and rifle again. Although he already hated killing, this time he heard the target's crime and hardened his heart. This film shatters the myth of the traditional western that people long for. The disfigurement has been added to the stigma and turned into sadism. The deeds of the legendary English Bob of a dozen or seven are all fabricated. It should have been the unselfish sheriff who was punished too lightly in order to calm things down, but imposed severe sentences on those who violated his ideas. , the former fierce killer behaved like a coward to the sheriff who made trouble for him when he had a fever, the "thug" wanted by a prostitute would cry when he was shot and beg for mercy, the little cowboy who said he had killed five people was actually It's also bragging. After killing the first person, I'm extremely scared. I drink and cry. There will still be people like him, just like Xie Xiaofeng in "The Sword of the Three Young Masters", there are still young people after cutting off his thumb. I want to challenge him. At the end, William came to the pub alone, killed the sheriff and police officers and the unarmed boss who wanted to shoot him in front of everyone, and announced loudly that he was here for revenge before leaving, if anyone dared to come in the future. Bullying prostitutes, he will come, and then ride away in the rainy night, those who want to attack him dare not kill him after listening to his words, the prostitutes also come out to watch, he left another legend. But I believe that he will never be a murderer of women and children, maybe he was, and he is definitely not now. There are slow-paced guitar songs at the beginning and end of the credits, which may confirm William's mood. I don't know why I remembered MacArthur's words, veterans never die, they just fade away.

    Don't guess the world of cowboys. Very warm killing film. If the one-eyed lady still doesn't understand why her daughter married a murderer, please wake up and take a look at Clint Eastwood.

    the best film of Oscar. Westerns. The story of the killer. Clint Eastwood is a very strong old man. Are there really so many things in this world that are unforgivable? I hope to give me an unforgivable injury and turn it into courage to kill. The silhouettes of the opening and closing credits are beautiful and great. Looks better than the old with nothing to rely on.

Unforgiven quotes

  • Little Bill Daggett: Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed. A man who will keep his head and not get rattled under fire, like as not, he'll kill ya.

    W.W. Beauchamp: But if the other fella is quicker, and fires first...

    Little Bill Daggett: Then he'll be hurrying, and he'll miss. Look here...

    [stands and draws his gun]

    Little Bill Daggett: That's about as fast as I can draw, and aim, and hit anything more than ten feet away... 'less it's a barn.

    W.W. Beauchamp: But if he doesn't miss?

    Little Bill Daggett: Then he'll kill ya.

    [chuckles]

    Little Bill Daggett: Yeah, that's why there's so few dangerous men around like old Bob, like me. It ain't so easy to shoot a man anyhow, especially if the son-of-a-bitch is shootin' back at you. I mean, that'll just flat rattle some folks.

  • Will Munny: Who's the fellow owns this shithole?

    [pause]

    Will Munny: You, fat man. Speak up.

    Skinny Dubois: Uh, I... I own this establishment. I bought the place from Greeley for a thousand dollars.

    [Will levels the shotgun, and speaks to someone standing behind Skinny]

    Will Munny: You better clear outta there.

    Man: Yes, sir.

    [scampers out of the way]

    Little Bill Daggett: Just hold it right there. Hold it...!

    [Will shoots Skinny. Screaming, the women scatter upstairs]

    Little Bill Daggett: Well, sir, you are a cowardly son of a bitch! You just shot an unarmed man!

    Will Munny: Well, he should have armed himself if he's going to decorate his saloon with my friend.
