Mood is very important - Interpretation in the way of Gu Long

A slow-paced, dull film, notably less fluid and engaging than Once Upon a Time in America.
After seeing half of it, I realized that it turned out that Leone had obtained the true inheritance of Gu Long (from the perspective of the age, it may be said that Gu Long has obtained the true inheritance of others.) There are very few intense gun battles, and all the shots are aimed at setting off the atmosphere. , and the final outcome only takes a shot and a few seconds. A man's movie, several male protagonists, no matter the villains, have distinct characteristics, dreams, responsibility, hatred, honor, friendship... all the words related to men are at a glance. And the only female character (except for the role of the dragon) is completely a decoration, not welcome, just like the character in Gu Long's novel. The protagonist is designed as a prodigal son, with no destination, no ending, and a complete legend.
I think of these for the time being, let’s throw some bricks and attract jade~~

I just saw that many people have compared this with Gu Long’s style, HOHO~~

    Because of the memory of the movie watched by the soundtrack master Morricone, the plot can only be understood after watching it twice. When the theme song is played, it is desolate and distant, and it is unforgettable and unforgettable.
