Then why did Frank miss the appointment? He led the other men to kill the Mc.Bain family. Bane was leisurely hunting turtledoves with his younger son, waiting for the start of his second wedding reception. Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, a family of four was shot dead at the door of their home.
Bain's farm, although the name has already been named - Sweetwater Town, is actually surrounded by deserts, but just next to Bain's solitary house, there is a sweet well that can supply water to the steam locomotive, so it is The next inevitable stop on the railroad to the west that has extended to Piece.
Railroad enjoyment Morton Morton originally wanted Frank to use coercion and inducement to drive away the Bain family, occupy the important site of Sweetwater Well, and realize his dream of connecting the railroad to the Atlantic Ocean. But Frank was so vicious and cunning. He and his men wore the signature coats of another gang headed by Sean Cheyenne to kill the Bane family, and left fragments of this coat to blame others.
Bain's second wife, Jill, a beautiful prostitute Bain had met in New Orleans, had registered in New Orleans a month earlier, and now, when Jill arrived at the Stone Town train station a few days after the tragedy, Bey En's family has no living people to pick up the station.
Jill hired a carriage to go to Sweetwater, and on the way passed a hotel like a cart store, which was filled with people of all kinds. When Jill followed the driver and came in curiously to take a look, there was a lot of gunfire outside the door. The only person who came in alive was Sean in handcuffs. He was caught by the police as the mastermind of killing the Bain family, but somehow he killed the police officers who were escorting him. He tested the harmonica player who was recovering here in the cart shop, and asked a stunned passenger to help him break the handcuffs, and then walked away with the men who came to meet.
Jill arrives at Sweetwater and understands everything. We can imagine the pain of seeing a prostitute who has finally reconciled. But conscientious prostitutes may more or less retain the habit they have developed in their industry - profiting from the transaction as soon as possible. So she looked around Bain's house, hoping to find some securities, gold jewelry, shells, and the like. What we see, however, is Jill tossing and resting in Bane's bed for nothing.
The film suddenly switches here to the harmonica player fighting in the truck shop with the truck shop owner who helped him meet Frank before, asking why Frank didn't make the appointment. To be honest, of course, you can understand it after watching it more than once, but something must have been cut out here. For such a movie, I am willing to watch it even if it takes 4 hours. I really don’t know why American cinemas have to be cut out. some content.
Jill couldn't sleep, and went on to rummage through the cabinets at Bane's house. She dug out a stack of architectural models from a box, including a model of a station that was an introduction to the film. At this time, Jill didn't know what the use of these things was. Suddenly, the sound of a harmonica came from outside the window, and she fired a shot at the place where the harmonica sounded. The next day, a disappointed Jill packed up and decided to leave Sweetwater. But then Sean came. He and his men were chased by the police for a night. He wanted to find out why Frank wanted to kill the Bane family and put the blame on him. He told Jill that he didn't do it, and that he would never kill a child no matter how bad it was. The two discussed the reason for the killing of the Bain family for a while. Sean thought there must be something hidden somewhere in Sweetwater, but Jill decided to leave.
This exchange is interspersed with conversations between Morton, who is on crutches on the train because of tuberculosis, and Frank hinting that he will kill Jill as well, so that the trouble is gone.
Before Jill left, someone stopped her again. This time, it was the harmonica player who played the harmonica outside the house last night. He and Sean said the same thing - since you have killed 4, it is easy to kill the fifth. From the stable, the harmonica master saw two people outside standing on the hillside, and realizing that the men Frank had sent to kill Jill had arrived, he used a trick to kill them by the well. These were all seen by Sean and his subordinates who did not leave on another hillside.
Jill, who had communicated with the two masters, finally knew that Frank was the murderer of his husband. The harmonica player must have told her that Frank can be found by looking for the truck shop owner, although it is not mentioned in the film. The harmonica player does this for a chance to track down the cart shop owner to find Frank. Sure enough, one after the other, the harmonica player got on Morton's train, and Sean was also under the train at this time.
Experienced Frank finds someone on the roof of the car and grabs the harmonica player, knowing that the two men sent to kill Jill are also dead. So he decided to go meet Jill in person. After Frank left, what followed was a battle of wits on the train where Sean took out the three guys guarding the harmonica player.
The scene between Frank and Jill was not immediately after the scene cut. The desolate place in Sweetwater was suddenly filled with building materials, and a signboard board that the supplier didn't know what to use, let Jill finally know that her husband was going to Build a train station here! Jill tried to find the station model when Frank handed it over from the side.
In the next period of time, the camera cuts and changes, and there is something missing here. Although we can still guess what is cut, why should people watching the movie in the cinema be confused when they see it? ! To be honest, I still don't fully understand it yet!
The camera suddenly cuts to Frank's lair, where Morton and Frank negotiate to buy the land in Sweetwater by peaceful means, but Frank humiliates Morton and puts him under house arrest on the train. Frank has new ideas now, and since he's seen the model of the train station, he should want the land himself.
The camera switches back to Sweetwater Town, and it stands to reason that even if a little flashback was inserted just now, it should be back to Frank and Jill being alone, but what I saw was the harmonica player and Sean’s group exploring the piles like archaeologists. The practical use of material plots for building fire stations. This episode should have happened after Frank and Jill were alone and both left.
The camera finally cuts to Frank and Jill making out in Bain's stable. Not to mention the connection before and after, Jill's actions are all at once incomprehensible, she is so proactive that you would think that Jill is being too spontaneous. No, if you think about it slowly, you may be able to figure it out (if you watch it in the movie theater, you will definitely be able to figure it out when you walk out of the movie theater): What else can Jill do? With a strong man like Frank, he might not even go back to New Orleans if he didn't do that.
Because what's next is a piece of Jill's auction of Sweetwater. Frank should threaten that Jill must sell Sweetwater as soon as possible. Moreover, in order to ensure that he can shoot Sweetwater Town at a low price, Frank asked his subordinates to threaten those rich people who participated in the shooting on the spot. When the bid reaches $500, no one dares to continue to bid up.
On Morton's train, Morton was guarded by Frank's men. Morton should have mixed feelings in his heart, he just wanted to get Sweetwater, so that his dream of connecting the railroad to the Atlantic Ocean could be realized. Now not only is Frank getting no progress by unconventional means, but also under house arrest on the train because of Frank's lofty plans. He stared at a painting of the turbulent Atlantic Ocean, tears welling up from the corners of his eyes. Is Morton a contrarian? Obviously not! Although he is not the protagonist in the film, no matter whether he is the protagonist or the supporting role, he is actually just a straw in the background of the era, and only Morton is a trend-setter! Fortunately, he had money, and he put 2,000 dollars in front of the four gangsters who guarded him...
The harmonica player and Sean, who were observing in the dark in the auction hall, played a two-person play in an emergency. The harmonica player shouted $5,000 upstairs and led Sean downstairs - the reward for a wanted Sean is $5,000!
Jill and the harmonica player are commenting on each other in the tavern - I still love all the lines in the movie - Westerns are actually a good way to learn English - when Frank pushes the door open. In his heart, he was extremely angry, but his joy and anger were indifferent. He wanted to buy Sweetwater from the harmonica player for $5,001. When Frank walked out of the tavern, his renegade men were already in ambush. Thanks to the help of a harmonica player, Frank was lucky not to be hurt. But Jill, who was watching from the window, was very angry: she asked why the harmonica player helped Frank instead of killing him. It turned out that the harmonica player thought it was his own business to kill Frank.
Frank returns to Morton's train, full of dead bodies, and Morton is breathless - apparently there's been a shootout. But the shootout was ruthlessly deleted by the businessman who imported the film into America. Seeing this, I don't even know who else in the shootout except Frank's subordinates - these are not explained until the end of the film. (Please, who saw this cut out of the Italian version?)
Frank didn't kill Morton, leaving him dead on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in his hallucinations.
The camera turns, and the railway workers have already repaired the railway to the town of Sweetwater. In this case Frank's harmonica player saw Sean of Verton come on horseback, and then Frank came. (It's all great dialogue.) The
harmonica player duels with Frank, and Frank dies.
The harmonica player and Sean left Jill's house, and suddenly Sean staggered off his horse and sat on the ground in pain. It turned out that when he took his gang to fight with Frank's gang on Morton's train, he was shot in the heart by Morton, who he thought was a cripple.
At the end of the film, the train pulls into Sweetwater! ! The harmonica player left with Sean's body. This is to tell us that although Morton is dead, the railway is not dead. What dies, it belongs only to the era of cowboys - Go away, Go away, I don't want you to see me die - by Sean's dying sentence.
