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.
虽然是be，但导演没有刻意渲染疼痛，反而整个画面很明亮，我很喜欢。吻戏也是亚洲风情的青涩和心动。
片长限制所以很多可以更细腻的地方拍得有点仓促，如果拉到120分钟以上可以更完美。学生时期的感情我很有共鸣，在感情里面先放弃的那一边最可耻。影片中几次落泪，为了不让眼泪落下来弄脏被子，我昂着头摸着黑在床头柜上摸索卫生纸的样子真的很狼狈！另，HK竟然是中学7年大学3年吗？！
看完意犹未尽，算不上优点但也不是缺点，可能因为个人原因没有很共情
生活可能就是這樣.總有一個人要承擔.清新的風格.不同的選擇有不同的責任.
这就是女孩子的青春
我觉得电影的硬伤在结尾，为什么在成人了，有经济能力了，独立的情况下不是重新开始，而是彻底分开呢？很明显她俩还爱着对方，搞不明白编剧是为了什么，也许就是很莫名其妙，所有的爱情都会莫名其妙的分开了。两个女主演的都很好，从高中到成人没有违和感。尤其喜欢在操场激吻那段戏，还有李咏蓝失恋和那个男生发生关系后，洗澡时把耳环硬生生戳过耳垂时，我都能感到心碎后剧痛的感觉。可我不喜欢结尾，我希望深爱的人都能勇敢的在一起，毕竟人生短暂，爱情也短暂 ，相爱就在一起吧。
氛围我超喜欢，但后半段剧情有点看不懂…有些地方挺莫名其妙的就
😭😭😭😭😭 铁石心肠的我没有哭，但是我确实太喜欢操场激吻的名场面了，看到之后连喊“卧槽卧槽卧槽！” 虽然我对女主一连串骚操作无力理解，但是还是很喜欢两个女主中学与婚礼蒙太奇（是吗）镜头，啊兴高采烈青春洋溢单纯的样子，和长大后沉稳冷静又有点冷漠木讷的对比，我真是爆哭😭 虽然但是，我很感激这个电影里对吻戏的慷慨，我很感激
1⃣️人生有太多来不及告别的。2⃣️两个人有共同的过去，却不一定有共同的回忆。有3⃣️几段还蛮无聊的，但有些又很有趣。4⃣️一直都是芯悦比较勇敢，帮咏蓝承认带手机、雨中在操场激吻、被让写检讨书却并不想承认错误…但是为什么坚持到最后的却是咏蓝呢？婚礼上，悦给蓝戴上戒指的那一幕，我觉得我的心都碎了…5⃣️你离开后，我活成了你的样子。
长发女主的侧脸真的好像我高中时暗恋的女孩啊😭
我的右手边坐着一对异性恋，电影过半起，女生一直哭，哭到了全剧终。男生一言不发，起身就走了。
6.5/10
希望女一送女二出嫁之后，尽快move on 找到真爱！
剧情很老套，有些场景超尴尬，但最后哭了，因电影里的感情想到自己。陪sis去看的，如果不是她说要去我自己应该不会去。
好学生气的作品噢，空镜头出现不合时宜，冇意义，剧情是拉圈各种名桥段拼凑。被掰弯后看着爱人结婚，les现实走进艺术。
演员很想毛舜筠有点出戏。我到后面已经开始觉得，那些甜蜜的时刻只是蓝的幻想了。没有发生过。例如芯的独舞。我长大了，我不怕了。但是还有许许多多人在洪流中被裹挟着走。
一地的烂玻璃渣，映射出彩虹，我还要踩在渣上起舞。
很老套的剧情 前面会觉得很尴尬 但是还是看进去了 在操场勇敢回吻，镜头围绕她们旋转配上音乐，她们太勇敢了在这么多同学的注目下，这份孤勇一瞬间有感动到我。后面婚礼一直在期待其实她的婚礼是和她，最后还是be了，也不知道为什么我哭得稀里哗啦。
想表达对于女校体制的反抗过于直露，故事戏剧性太强没有处理好。
