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.
同一题材前几年出过美国版“阴谋”，但这题材还是德国人自己拍才更有“严整秩序下的冷酷”感。人性被众口一词的恶臭意识形态严实地挤压到几近于无的地步。艾希曼中校作为“最终方案”的灵魂角色，得到神还原，看似无足轻重，却在每个关键节点以其无以伦比的效率极优化方案以及一丝不苟的统计数字主导了整个会议的方向🧭说实话，一直觉得“平庸之恶”以形容艾希曼中校这个说法并不确切，技术性官僚只是看似平庸（能力毋庸置疑）更无所谓恶，他只是在将一切看成“数据列表”的时候，过于理所当然了。艾希曼是人类理性之恶的代表，只是还没有人把脏水泼到理性头上。
一部靠演员台词功底的电影，一群纳粹高官谈论着如何绝对净化犹太人的计划，地图上每个区域画着一副棺材底下是冰冷的数字，计划实施每小时射杀938人，日夜不停，488天。人性到底是什么？最后的方案是什么不用我说大家特都知道了！最无耻是居然能说出来“谁不喜欢生活在和平中”
2022 #1 megabox 五条先生最高！漫畫雖然也只是單行但感覺劇場版簡潔很多？動作場面華麗麗的。理香比想像中可愛（咒靈版），反而小時候卻很狐狸精模樣。純愛那句笑死我了
本以为在这次会议上会有激烈的讨论关于犹太人的最终处理。但他们对于最终处理方案大方向的一致让我震惊，可见纳粹思维上的扭曲和品性的残忍是无法想象的。
一个会议，一个主题，600万犹太人消失……
ok的一部电影，剧情还算紧凑，就整体结构黑星，但是连贯性可以再强一点，演员演技在线，挺好的。
不评论会议内容。
// 高密度的对话、没有跌宕起伏的情节，会导致这部剧观众群体进一步减少。纯正单方面的决断，只为寻找高效的处理工具。
台词密度极高，张弛有度，演员演技都在线，看的我生理性反胃，太可怕了。看很多二战反犹电影都觉得观众都是被外置的旁观者，这部电影算是把这种旁观者视角极大化了。
太好哭了家人们😭。纯爱の力，次巴拉系！相比下五条老师都没什么表现的余地啊。
跟英版的一群莎剧戏骨，英式幽默，戏剧高浓不同的是，德国这一版的表演非常冰冷地做出决策：如何让这场大屠杀执行起来更人道？注意，是德国人更人道地执行，而不是人道地对待犹太人，非常精准地还原了史实。
比起针对犹太人的骇人听闻的行径，更令人毛骨悚然的是这些高官齐聚一堂，以关切全人类福祉为由，道貌岸然地讨论如何除掉一整个民族。
妈呀花泽香菜快把我叫聋了。同志们来看不怂包的淀真嗣用纯爱拯救世界。
人模人样的开会讨论犹太人全欧洲的清零，当官那个：你们随便咬，别咬到我，咬我就喊口号：“元首说了…” 底下当兵的人渣说自己成天杀犹太妇女小孩，手下还有特别喜欢杀小孩的变态，“我们多有能力”。制定过犹太人法的黑衣服男人表示自己依法办事，提出精细化犹太人分类和强制阉割的损招，被叫到办公室要和笑面虎高管当邻居，得逞后立马不吱声了。最后一群人站在休息室饭堂又热聊一组，黑眼圈胖子出幺蛾子，引大家到毒气消灭一劳永逸的阴招上，自己好说一说当兵时候的经历露露脸。恶魔体制下群魔乱舞，说起杀人的事儿还自称搞卫生是正义，而且这种鬼才逻辑还一直流行。
台词字字泣血。1100万条人命只是工作量只是负担，偶尔闪现的看似人性的关怀只是基于自己利益考量的伪善和邪恶。毛骨悚然，似曾相识。
改编自真实历史事件，让人大为震惊。二战时德国就如何处置犹太人开了一个“万湖会议”。会议上各部门的头头为了自身利益相互博弈，会议召集者为了达到目的软硬兼施。与会者在一番讨价还价，让利得利之后，终于达成一致。大方向统一之后，大家还就如何执行讨论了许多细节，比如执行地的选择，火车运输能力，执行这件事的时间能否满足要求，成本是否超过承受能力，执行后果是否可控等等。看起来仿佛和现代公司开的任何项目的会议差不多，可这是决议对欧洲约1100万犹太人进行清除的会议。1100万人的生命，在他们口中如同1100万元的方案一般轻松。
当一份执念通过语言反复吟唱，便成了诅咒。诅咒就是执念，寄生于可以容纳这份情感的躯体，怨灵修改躯体，借由纯爱拔除，像是一场归还姓名的仪式。牺牲百鬼夜行来换乙骨和夏油杰对决也不算很亏，狗卷前辈我一整个抱住不撒手！
冠冕堂皇地讨论
第一次在电影院大银幕看动画片 纪念一下 但是平时倍速开多了 看普通速度觉得好尬...
“历史选择了我们这一代” 对这种绝对信念感天然有一种恐惧，无论当下看着是好是坏
