The main line is that the girl hired a law enforcement officer to avenge her father, and the revenge was bumpy all the way, and the girl lost an arm. The main line is that the LaBoeudf mounted police hunt down the killer for the bounty. The three of them travel together for a common goal. The long journey of the three is full of ups and downs.

After shooting Chaney, Rooster took Mattie to the hut on the way. Rooster ran as fast as he could, ridges, wasteland, sunset, dead branches, night, stars, and exhausted dark horses. In the end, the exhausted Rooster knelt on hundreds of feet. A few meters away, a gunshot finally saw a light in the dark night. There is a huge contrast between the male protagonist and the drunken and decadent drunkard before, and the characters become real and three-dimensional. And rooster finally confronted Ned and his group, fighting with one against four, which corresponds to the one-on-seven plot he mentioned before, gnashing the reins and facing the enemy with two pistols.

The ending of the final film is extremely realistic, as the opening scene says "You mast pay for everything in the world, one way and another. There is nothing free, expect the grace of god."

    The plot is good, this film is too testy for listening

    I found a little girl who looked like the old version, reorganized the plot, greatly simplified, and went straight to the theme. There are also complaints. As a Western movie, it's too damn clean. And I think it’s better to set the ending as the old man holding the little girl and running to the house, wouldn’t it be better? The memory of the old virgin Yang Guo ended up being a bit redundant... But maybe it was the Coen brothers who set the so-called redemption theme, so that it would be a chord with cleanliness.
