剧情介绍

  Wounded and on the run, notorious gunman Quirt Evans (John Wayne) gallops onto a farm owned by Quaker Thomas Worth (John Halloran) and his family and collapses. When Quirt urgently insists upon sending a telegram, Thomas and his daughter Penelope (Gail Russell) drive him into town in their wagon. After wiring a claim to the land recorder's office, Quirt kisses Penny and then passes out. Ignoring the doctor's advice to rid themselves of the gunman, the compassionate Worth family tends to the delirious Quirt, and Penny becomes intrigued by his ravings of past loves.

  Days later, when Quirt regains consciousness, Penny patiently explains the family's belief in non-violence. Three weeks later, Laredo Stevens (Bruce Cabot) and Hondo Jeffries (Louis Faust) ride into town looking for Quirt. When Penny's younger brother Johnny (Stephen Grant) rushes home to inform Quirt of his visitors, Quirt quickly prepares to flee. Penny, now smitten with Quirt, offers to run off with him. At the sound of approaching horses, Quirt grabs his gun and discovers that it has been emptied. Training his gun on the doorway, Quirt calmly greets Hondo and Laredo. Thinking that Quirt has the upper hand, Laredo offers to buy his claim. When Quirt sets the price at $20,000, Laredo hands over $5,000 in gold and challenges him to come for the balance when he is able – if he has the nerve.
  Afterward, Quirt saddles his horse, but when Penny begs him to stay, he changes his mind. Later, Quirt learns that cantankerous rancher Frederick Carson (Paul Hurst) has dammed up the stream that runs through the valley, thus draining the Worths' irrigation ditches. Quirt intimidates Carson into opening the dam.
  One Sunday, Penny asks Quirt to join the family for a ride. Before they leave, Marshal Wistful McClintock (Harry Carey) comes to question Quirt about a stagecoach robbery. The family swears that Quirt was with them at the time. The marshal then asks Quirt why he resigned as Wyatt Earp's deputy, sold his ranch and crossed over to the wrong side of the law soon after cattleman Walt Ennis was gunned down in a saloon brawl. When Quirt refuses to answer, the marshal leaves. Penny then begs Quirt to steer clear of Laredo, and he acquiesces because of his love for her.
  As Quirt and the Worths ride to the Quaker gathering, Quirt's erstwhile sidekick, Randy McCall (Lee Dixon), tags along. Randy tells Quirt that Laredo plans to rustle a herd of cattle and suggests that they then steal the herd from Laredo and let him take the blame. Mr. Worth gives Quirt a Bible for ending the feud with Carson. Fearing that he will never be able to live up to Penny's expectations, Quirt abruptly leaves with Randy.
  Quirt and Randy steal the herd from the original rustlers. They then celebrate with showgirls Lila Neal (Joan Barton) and Christine Taylor (Rosemary Bertrand). When Lila, sensing a change in her old flame, teases Quirt about his Bible, Quirt becomes angry and rides back to the Worth farm. Overjoyed, Penny throws her arms around him, just as the marshal arrives to question Quirt about the rustling. Quirt states that Lila can provide him with an alibi. Penny is hurt that Quirt was with his old flame, who she heard him talk about in his delirium, thinking Quirt prefers Lila's fair hair. Quirt realizes the depth of his feelings for Penny, and they kiss hungrily in the barn, while the camera fades.
  The marshal warns Quirt that he is the wrong man for Penny. Quirt decides to propose to her anyway. Instead of replying, Penny invites Quirt to join her picking blackberries. Quirt answers Penny's questions about his early life. Kindly Walt Ennis raised him after his parents were massacred by Indians. Then Ennis was murdered.
  Quirt and Penny are ambushed and chased by Laredo and Hondo on their way home. Their wagon plunges over a cliff into the river, causing Penny to develop a dangerous fever. When the doctor informs Quirt that there is no hope for her, Quirt straps on his pistol and rides into town to exact revenge. After Quirt leaves, Penny's fever suddenly breaks.
  In town, Quirt sends Bradley to tell Laredo and Hondo he is waiting for them in the street. Penny and her family arrive. She gets Quirt to surrender his gun to her. As Laredo and Hondo draw their guns, Marshal McClintock shoots them both. Quirt rides off in the wagon with Penny. The marshal picks up Quirt's discarded weapon. Bradley comments that Quirt may need the weapon, to which the marshal says, "Only a man who carries a gun ever needs one." And, the film fades to black.

    目前7.6评分稍低了,个人8.5分吧。这是一部极具导演风格的电影,也是近些年关于多元宇宙诠释最好的一部影片(没有之一且完爆漫威)。很多人打低分估计是因为“爱可以拯救一切”的“俗套”结尾吧,不过某种程度而言只看到这一点说明你有一个美好的童年,关于“关系”没什么困扰。我很喜欢影片里伊芙琳和waymond的一场对话:“你每时每刻都在担心,自己是否错过了掌握人生、成就自我的机会?我现在来告诉你,你所经历的每一次拒绝,每一次失望,都戴领着你来到此时此刻。”可只有先到达此时此刻,才能走向未来。如果把人生轨迹比作一条线,你用放大镜来看它只连续不断的小点所组成的,也就是说我们只能活在此时此刻,所以压根就不是爱能拯救一切,而是爱定义了我们的存在,嗯,即便明天是世界末日,今夜我也要在园中种满莲花。

    虚无主义的反义词是什么?实有主义吗?everything matters. 一切皆可爱。

  • 博暄 4小时前 :

    最耐人寻味的可能是:类似《青春变形记》,为什么亚裔文艺作品至今都只能采用这种“天马行空”的荒诞手法才能解决母女(代际)冲突问题?面对亚裔式的家庭矛盾,这一通嬉笑怒骂、轰轰烈烈的癫狂,其实是要掩饰实质上的虚弱无力、束手无策和绝望无解吧。

  • 习芳芳 6小时前 :

    一部给东亚家庭关系披上了多重宇宙外衣的商业片,看似天马行空的想象力和隐喻,依然逃不过核心的陈词滥调。在女儿Joy在陷入“nothing matters”的虚无后,母亲Eyveln给予的解决方式又是love matters all,但是对于东亚家庭关系本质的探讨,对于冲突的回避对于沟通的疏导只字未提。只能说,看看剪辑就好。

  • 卫朝聚 6小时前 :

    杨紫琼能遇到这部电影确实是一种幸运,这部电影能遇到杨紫琼是一种更大的幸运

  • 令景福 5小时前 :

    又是一部它本可以真的深入哲学但它非要宇宙中心歌颂爱的电影。概率上来说,我们每一个人都是Evelyn,同时也是所有人。

  • 单于欣愉 7小时前 :

    没看懂。如果目的是探讨亚裔家庭关系,是否有必要拍得那么费劲?不大喜欢脑洞电影的内卷倾向,good old fashion美国温情片没啥不好

  • 伯博延 8小时前 :

    是今年到目前为止,看过的对剧本,台词和镜头以及三者之间相互配合的打磨最下功夫最用心的一部电影。看完的第一反应:剪辑的工作量可能是天文数字。节奏够快,创意够独,亮点够多,效果够好,这些都在其次。最难能可贵的导演是真的在用心做一部电影,用心设计每一分钟的叙事,并且站在观众的角度去考虑这个片段会产生什么样的效果。这一点与瑞士军刀男一脉相承。后者也是我觉得成片本身差强人意,但用心程度远胜其他的电影典范。

  • 东郭语兰 8小时前 :

    感觉是把能想到的元素都用上了,中间还cos了一段王家卫(虽然剧情挺晋江的),一度要被打戏看到疲累时,又进入下一个温柔的反转,一度以为要和解时,又进入下一段关系的激辩。完全因为最后母女之间的对话,让我多打了一星,because敢相信我一个30多岁的人,现在依然就像电影这样和我爸不断争论,然后往往以我的一句“你别管我了”结尾,然后俩人互相沉默,看到这里我真的爆哭。但是过一段时间,对方遇到什么问题,又像没有发生过一样,继续互相照顾,然后继续争吵,然后继续和解,真的就是不断地这样在重复(前提是我已经不再跟父母同住,但每隔一段时间还是会见面)。虽然一开始觉得编剧把结局写成大和解,太不现实了吧,现实中站在各自立场的双方,怎么可能和解?但写到这里,我发现这个结局不过是阶段性和解,过一段时间后,电影会重演。

  • 宋清宁 5小时前 :

    看似天马行空,实际花里胡哨,乱七八糟,故事稀碎,又臭又长。总结:浪费时间。

  • 敏柔 4小时前 :

    4.5,相比而言,开多重宇宙的脑洞是最简单的事情,如何在强设定的背景下收尾,才是最困难的。

  • 崔沛白 2小时前 :

    最好的部分都在前十分钟里,之后垮得无可救药,把疯癫玩成俗套,无休无止地折磨观众的神经。但凡亚裔电影必有干涉一切的大家长,剑拔弩张的家庭关系,而编剧还挣扎在和解的泥淖里。

  • 刚祺然 0小时前 :

    喜欢剪辑和镜头语言,但叙事很乱,不过它乱有乱的逻辑。最受不了的是凭什么我要把沙子揉碎在眼睛里笑着活着?难道这个世界的底层还不够温顺吗?我可以慈悲的活着,不代表我需要承担过错,放弃改变的权利。说到底,世界变成今天这样,不正是因为白莲盛放。

  • 古怡然 0小时前 :

    杨紫琼在里面的表演,属于“我知道她是演员,但我总感觉她不是在演”那种,非常好。

  • 从宏朗 4小时前 :

    至少,完全对得起“天马行空”这个四个大字。我对于华人脸孔担纲洋人的电影这事的兴奋度不会高于看到一部出色的华语电影,但我们扪心自问,我们办得到吗?搁下技术性层面,就全面包容度而言,100年都达不到。角色可以拿着大型的Dildo当武器,巨大的肛塞可以用来戏谑,Lesbian的亲密亲吻可以自然而然,哪怕略微血腥的暴力美学我们都看不到了,所以我们凭什么自大地觉得人家拍一部电影是会想要“与遥远的东方相关”呢?人家压根就不在意!因为他们知道自己的作品注定不会被大多数中国人看到。

  • 卫汪丰 0小时前 :

    Overwhelming, in both good and bad ways(一开始是欣赏它的,看完之后哈……这很个人,但对我来说,信息量大和脏脏的混乱,只能发生一件事。看这个片子,就感觉被霸凌了。可能不太适合我们老年人吧~😂)

  • 妫天宇 3小时前 :

    想法还是可以的。多重宇宙的设定实际利用率并不是很高,素材太多以致每个都不够深入,转场更是随意得不行,有种“素材太多,不知道该用哪个”的慌乱感。整个设定最多只是起到一个以另一种形式阐述现实线的作用,本身既无丰富的剧本内容,又无独到的影像功能。

  • 向文丽 6小时前 :

    整整两个半小时啊!翻转全宇宙,球球了Evelyn和Joy在一起吧,有Becky什么事儿啊!有内老公什么事儿啊,还没她爹重要。眼花缭乱的剪辑贡献了很多可以做GIF的冥场面,如果每个人做的梦可以全息投影,应该就是这样吧

  • 仙恬欣 8小时前 :

    我希望我妈过她最享受的人生就好了,是不是跟我爸/跟我一起不重要。

    太太太太太太長了。如果我在那個人類的手是熱狗的宇宙,我十個指頭不夠dollar吃的。楊紫瓊60了還在打,厲害了orz
