Griff Bonnell (Sullivan) and his brothers arrive in a small, Arizona town. He is a U.S. Marshal looking to arrest Howard Swain (Chuck Roberson), coincidentally one of landowner Jessica Drummond’s (Stanwyck) 40 guns. The town is being terrorized and trashed by Brockie and his boys. He’s an arrogant drunk and bully but when he shoots an old buddy of Griff’s, he and his brothers intervene. Griff strides purposefully towards the action, unconcerned at the mayhem going on. Brockie’s buddies recognize the lawman and flee but the drunk Brockie doesn’t know or care. Fuller cuts back and forth between a close-up of Griff’s eyes and Brockie’s gun repeatedly until the climax when Griff finally reaches Rocky and knocks him unconscious with a punch. Griff and Jessica inevitably cross paths and their relationship starts off as antagonistic but eventually blossoms into a romance.《四十支枪》是一部优秀的剧情片影视作品,提起美国电影,人们就肯定会想到《四十支枪》,这部由塞缪尔·富勒导演,芭芭拉·斯坦威克,巴瑞·萨里万,吉恩·巴瑞,Robert,Dix,迪恩·贾格尔,约翰·埃里克森,Hank,Worden主演的《四十支枪》,在剧里,每一个演员出色的表演将剧中角色形象呈现得栩栩如生。无论是剧情、演员的表演还是剧中歌曲,都是该片的美妙亮点所在。真正是成为一匹黑马,创造了一个奇迹。为何这么说,我想,就连大伙们都没有想到这部剧情片会得到这样好的反响。塞缪尔·富勒先生拼凑大家到一起创作出来一部作品,也真是缘分!所以,正是这样的团体感和强烈的自尊心,他们在电影中投入的热情,是我们难以想象的,其实四十支枪中的人物心理历程和逼人的剧情,何尝不是现实中的真实写照呢?所以,他们怀着一腔心有不甘的英雄气,用他们的实力和人情成就了这部经典的剧情片,也成就了他们自己!
