Plot summary:

At the end of the 19th century, William Blake, a young man from Cleveland, went to a factory in the west to apply for an accountant job. He failed to pass the clinker class and was still confused. He killed the son of Mr. Dickinson, the local top man, and was seriously injured. He became a fugitive with a reward on his head. In the process of escaping, he met Nobody, an Indian who had been plundered to England as a child. Nobody thought that the wanted fugitive was his idol, the poet William Blake, so the two began a journey of escape? Director Jim Jamach used the usual scenes and atmosphere of western movies, but the whole film was The black and white photography and Neil Young's music make the film even more desolate.

"The Stranger" allegorically reflects on various colonial behaviors of Western civilization in the early days of the founding of the United States. At the beginning of the film, the scenery outside the train and the changes in the characters opposite Depp symbolize Depp's journey from civilization back to primitiveness, which is also a journey leading to death. In that small town, the image of America was condensed, the image of the West that shaped people into savages and pioneers. The metal factory embodies the contradictory relationship between primitiveness and civilization, machinery and nature. The protagonist of the movie, William Blake, has the same name as a poet, and the contrast between civilization and violence between the two reflects the differences between European culture and American culture. The Indian Nobody, an educated savage, made endless mockery of white people and white civilization in the image of a wise man. And the metaphorical image of the killer in police uniform who kills his companions and eats them is self-evident. This movie is full of metaphors and symbols, especially in two details. Depp killed a pair of twins, and there was an overhead shot after his death, two identical profiles, and an image of branches forming a light under his head. One does not, which just confirms William Blake's poem (to the effect, one is born in the morning sun, and the other is born in the dark night). At an exchange station, the priest buys and sells goods (guns, gunpowder, etc.) with serious racial discrimination, and hangs a sign on the door "work out your own salvation", and Depp's way of salvation is to kill the priest. At the end of the movie, Depp enters the Indian tribe under the guidance of Nobody. The movie is extremely mysterious and has a primitive charm. Finally, Depp lay on the boat and drifted into the ocean, returning to the destination of his soul. The film's simple style, mysterious atmosphere, perfect and metaphorical composition, desolate and vicissitudes of music, and philosophical dialogue are the highest peak of Jarmusch's works so far.
