There are two kinds of people in the world: one who has seen Westerns and one who has not seen Westerns.
In the past three days, I have watched "Golden Three Darts", "Red Dead Redemption", "Dusk Double Darts", "American Knife Trilogy". Of course, the order of watching is 312, no way, who makes the last one the most famous.
The perspectives of politicians and artists will never be the same, the former cares about success and fame, and the latter mourns everywhere.
If "Dancing with Wolves" and "Burning Love Years" can be regarded as the reflection and torture of Americans on their past history, then "The Golden Three Darts" is a clear-eyed foreigner, an objective description of the history of the American Civil War.
Italian director Sergio Leon has a special dream-style obsession with the United States, most of his works are also around the United States, of which the dart trilogy is a school of its own, and even surpassed the American native Western, especially the last "Golden Three Darts", which is the Mahayana of the first two parts, which not only gives the American Western dream an epic and magnificent temperament, but also establishes the status of the grandmaster of Sergio Leon's Italian Western.

In the movie, the 200,000 gold coins are the targets of good guys, bad guys and weird guys. In this life-and-death battle, there is actually no winner, even if you finally get the gold coins, you are still in a deep end.
When asked why Leone wanted to make a Western, Leone replied: "My Western just looks like a Western, and I use it to express my pessimism, my pain, the shattering of my dreams, and a little bit of old feelings." ”
He made only seven films in his lifetime, five of which were Westerns, and his pessimism was evident in the films: the death of the West, the helpless struggle of old-school heroes in the change of the times, the social revolution. The duel at the end of the film takes place in the cemetery, which represents a kind of mourning and remembrance.
Watching these movies is largely for the final showdown, because the number of participants in each one is getting cooler and cooler. By the third part, I couldn't control my inner passion. Also want to take a gun up and pk with them.
The decisive battle of these three films has a characteristic, that is, it is brewing for a long time and making moves quickly. It's about spending time on foreplay, and it's only a moment before it's actually launched. Of course, this is certainly not good between the beds.
But it was made into a movie that looked very good, and the three-person showdown in the third part was very good. After seven minutes of brewing, the eye movements of the three people were captured from the three people's clothing configuration, and the camera switch accelerated, and the atmosphere slowly warmed up.
After a faint shot, the climax suddenly stopped, refreshing. Do not drag mud with water at all, and break the silk connection. This is very similar to the Japanese swordsman film, although it can't be killed with a knife, like this to solve the battle at once. But before moving, there will be a still brewing. Moreover, drawing a gun is also a fight with drawing a knife. It's all a momentary climax.
In the final duel, who will fall? Although the good people guarded the stone with the name of the treasure cemetery in the center of the venue, how sure were they as bad people and ugly people to believe that the good people wrote the truth? Think from the perspective of these two people, if the good people write is not true, and the good people are killed by a shot, then how to find the treasure?
Then if you kill each other and don't kill good people, when the other party falls, good people will inevitably take the opportunity to shoot at themselves, then the last profit is still good people. What to do? It was indeed an unfair duel.
As it turned out, just as the two men hesitated, a gunshot rang out, the bad guy fell in response, and a puff of green smoke came out of the muzzle of the good guy's gun. At this time, the ugly person suddenly reacted, although killing the good man may not get the treasure, but if he did not kill the good man, he would definitely be the next target to be killed, so he pulled the trigger on the good man.
Classic showdown in film history
The good man did not fall, because he had already unloaded all the bullets in the ugly man's gun. This is obviously an unfair duel between the bad guys and the ugly guys, the good guys succeed by quickly solving the bad guys just when the two of them hesitate to shoot whom, and the absolute information superiority and sophisticated psychological analysis are the guarantees of the victory of the good guys.
Wood said that there are two kinds of people in this world, one is full of bullets, the other is only digging graves, go dig you! Finally the clown stood on the cross with two feet and a rope, the picture of gold on the ground was also very sad, Wood's fading back and the clown's desperate and frightened shouting blonde boy... The blonde boy was indeed the good, let the clown taste the fear of death and then came to save him, I thought the clown would smash his head and die on the money bag
Although the whole film is lengthened for up to three hours, and the Western can not be like the Oriental martial arts, can develop a wonderful fight scene, the gun battle is solved in an instant, so the overall atmosphere of the mastery, plot and depiction of human nature, become a necessary element of successful Westerns.
In the three hours of this film, the humanity reflected through good people, bad people and ugly ghosts, as well as several important classic scenes, are not comparable to those later action movies that "fight a big fight, the protagonist is never hurt", or films that only fight and have no content. This is also the reason why after nearly 40 years, this film can still rank among the top 30 in film history, and it is worth recommending and collecting.
Now it is another era of western film decline, and the few works in recent years are mostly remade, and the best works are even rarer. In such a complicated and complicated film world, we are not simply calling for its return, but at least we hope that the classics of the past will be properly preserved and still worthwhile. After all, if history is not preserved in the hearts of the audience, it is truly lost. So, we look forward to the new audience to rescue the Western, just like the heroes who once came out of the West.
In addition, without watching "Good and Evil Ugly", without watching "Red Dead Redemption" and "Twilight Double Dart", how to know the bull ratio of "Unforgivable".
