剧情介绍

  While surveying a telegraph line in 1861, Western Union engineer Edward Creighton (Dean Jagger) is severely injured in an accident. He is discovered by Vance Shaw (Randolph Scott), an outlaw on the run from a posse. Forced to travel on foot after his horse was hurt, Shaw at first considers stealing Creighton's horse, but changes his mind and takes the man with him, saving his life.
  Sometime later, following his recovery, Creighton returns to Omaha, Nebraska and plans the construction of a telegraph line from Omaha to Salt Lake City, Utah. Facing considerable opposition to the line from Confederate soldiers, Indians, and outlaws, Creighton elicits the help of his sister Sue (Virginia Gilmore), foreman Pat Grogan (Minor Watson), and assistant Homer Kettle (Chill Wills).
  Looking to put his outlaw past behind him, Shaw arrives at Creighton's Western Union office looking for honest work and is hired as a scout by Grogan who is unaware of his past. Creighton recognizes him among the men and allows him to stay despite his suspicions. Creighton also hires tenderfoot Richard Blake (Robert Young), a Harvard-educated engineer as a favor to Blake's father. Shaw and Blake are both attracted to Sue and vie for her attention, but their romantic rivalry is cut short when construction of the telegraph line starts on July 4, 1861.
  After work commences on the line, one of the men is killed apparently by a mysterious band of cattle-rustling Indians. Unconvinced that Indians are to blame, Shaw rides out to investigate and follows the rustlers' trail to the camp of Jack Slade, a former friend and cohort, whose gang committed the killing disguised as Indians—the gang Shaw left following his last bank robbery. Slade reveals that they are working for the Confederacy to disrupt Western Union because they believe the telegraph service will help the Union. Shaw rides away and returns to the line. Not wanting to turn in his former friends, Shaw tells Creighton that a large band of Dakota Indians stole the cattle, and recommends that they simply replace the herd and not risk a fight with the Indians.
  Sometime later, a confrontation takes place between men working on the forward line and a band of drunken Indians. When one of the Indians tries to steal some equipment, a nervous Blake shoots him, ignoring Shaw's order to remain calm. After word arrives that the main camp is under attack by other Indians, the Western Union men rush back to help with the defense. At the main camp, Slade's men, who are again disguised as Indians, steal the Western Union horses. The company discover the ruse when one of the wounded Indians turns out to be a white man. Forced to buy back their stolen horses from Slade, Creighton becomes suspicious of Shaw's involvement, especially when he admits to knowing the gang.
  Soon the U.S. Army arrives and announces the Indians have now refused to allow the telegraph lines to go through their territory in response to Blake's shooting of the drunken Indian. Creighton, Shaw, and Blake ride out to convince Chief Spotted Horse to allow them to build the line through Indian territory, even though the man Blake wounded was Spotted Horse's son. Creighton is finally able to persuade the Indians to allow them passage, and work continues until the company approaches Salt Lake City.
  Sometime later, Shaw receives word that Jack Slade wants to meet with him. On the way to see Slade, Shaw is captured and bound by Slade's men. Slade says his group is going to burn down the Western Union camp and they don't want Shaw to interfere. After Slade and his men ride off, Shaw escapes from his ropes but arrives back too late to prevent the fire. He helps rescue some of the Western Union men from the flames and burns his hands in the process.
  After the fire, Creighton confronts Shaw for an explanation, but Shaw does not reveal what he knows and is fired by Creighton. As Shaw leaves the camp, he tells Blake that Slade is actually Shaw's brother and that he, Shaw, will find Slade's gang and stop them from interfering with the telegraph project. Shaw rides off and finds Slade and his men in a nearby town. At the barber shop, Shaw confronts his brother, whose gun is concealed under the barber's sheet. Slade shoots Shaw through the sheet. Shaw fights back in spite of his wound, killing some of the gang members, and then dies. Blake arrives and continues the fight with Slade who dies from his wounds. Soon after, the Western Union line is completed and the workers celebrate. When Sue laments the absence of Shaw, Creighton tells her that Shaw can hear them.

    克隆一个自己,包括记忆,由他(她)将自己的人生继续下去。没啥不行吧?有点儿强说愁。科技既已发展到如此程度,却还是对付不了肿瘤。

    那么可不可以多克隆几个人帮我去上班啊

  • 卫玲 3小时前 :

    只按女权理解是不是也格局小了。整体真不错,最后的1v1嗓子吊心口。

  • 厉宏扬 0小时前 :

    开头以为是军事史诗片,看到后来像是悬疑片,最后原来是一部女权片。

  • 咸萦怀 9小时前 :

    就蛮讨厌这种故意的性冷淡呈现方式,搞的一个不痛不痒的软科幻,自怨自艾的自我拉扯,不过倒是满符合现在很多apple tv的受众的。两个演员原本都是好演员,硬被这层滤镜搞得不伦不类

  • 接芳芳 9小时前 :

    黑暗中世纪就这操行,这种能把观众气背过去的情节比比皆是。魔改罗生门已然是看的津津有味心里飞蛇走马,居然最后又来一段荣耀战魂,简直冰火两重天爽到爆炸

  • 威晓桐 1小时前 :

    不小的制作,却拍得这么丑,难得的魄力和创作决心。唯一遗憾的是,结尾还是不够给力,总感觉背后还有真相,编导似乎也有这个意图,但没点破。

  • 万俟春芳 2小时前 :

    最后,落到了metoo的女权主义,实在是太陈旧了。

  • 俞叶丰 4小时前 :

    看了简介才去看的,设定很新颖,但拍得却很俗气。正确的拍法应该是让观众跟随克隆人的视角,最起码要以克隆人为主角,讲述本体死后,克隆人替代本体生活的故事,而不是让观众看本体临死前的各种麻烦事儿,搞的像部家庭肥皂剧,白白浪费了观众宝贵的周六晚间时光。

  • 哀博艺 3小时前 :

    看完我还在想,所以片名“天鹅挽歌”的寓意是什么。我女朋友竟然一语中的:“因为天鹅在湖面上的倒影,就是由两个自己,组成的一个爱心呀。”

  • 太叔承宣 0小时前 :

    达蒙的角色写得比想象中精彩,很多主事件外的隐喻(比如育马一段)还可以。三段式即有统一事件的不同角度,也有信息互相补充。可是大概电影的不完美也在这部分上,即使是pov模式,过于跳跃的细节导致电影前半段并不太引人入胜。而且我也说不清,不知道是一些细节还是主演的原因,这电影的年代感并不强烈。整部电影里的人都在夸司机如何潇洒帅气,我笑到爆炸。

    既然可以將一個人的記憶、知能和潛意識完全移轉到另一個相同的軀體上,何不就讓原來病老的殘殼消滅?等於是腦部移植。這樣,就沒有同時存在兩個人的困擾了。

  • 哈若蕊 1小时前 :

    夫人誓死捍卫真相和最后的决斗结果,并未给女性带来正义和荣誉,无非重新刷亮和捍卫了一次男权,镜头给到了最后一刺,再次感叹影视中的匕首即是另一种“性器”,强暴跟性别无关,王权借助男权把必不可少的暴力外部化到了决斗仪式之中,逃脱了死亡又凝聚了大众对男权的信念和臣服……某种程度上我们离欧洲中世纪封建又有多远呢……

    黑镜看多了,中后程都在等着出什么大情况。结果没有,一切顺利地结束。故略有怅然。

  • 司寇念露 8小时前 :

    传说天鹅在临死前的叫声特别动人,特别美。这部电影叫《天鹅挽歌》/《Swan Song》,看完后我觉得,这个名字取得真是贴切,真好。

  • 所韶容 9小时前 :

    这其实是不是两个男人的战争,而是一个女人对抗整个世界,为了尊严,为了自我。

  • 徐新林 3小时前 :

    三星半。罗生门式的故事。所谓为女性尊严而战,不过是为了男性尊严而战。

  • 卫炳申 3小时前 :

    与其沉迷于无效填充不如做减法拍成短片。

  • 展雁兰 2小时前 :

    挺好看的,朱迪科莫古装很美。几点感想:1.意识是主观的。2.男人真的很自大。3.女人说不的时候意思就是不,望周知。4司机不是真的爱玛格丽特。5.无论在哪封建专制都是害人的东西,而在这个体制内女人注定是牺牲品。

  • 惠寒 9小时前 :

    克隆在科幻电影中已然不再是什么新鲜题材,但《天鹅挽歌》的不同,则在于电影既没有结论,也不做批判,它只是用细腻的情感表达将一个告别的故事,赋予了最为“无私”的形态。面对即将不久于人世的现实,是让深爱的人同样陷入巨大的悲痛,还是用克隆人替代自己,孤独死去?两难抉择下关于爱的挽歌,感人至深。
