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.
Anamaria Vartolomei的表演加分很多 导演选到了一个完美的女主 片子站在一个现实到极致的角度去拍这个堕胎故事 这个女性角色不仅属于60年代 也属于21世纪20年代
看看吧，女导演把女性堕胎的经历拍下来，就是一部恐怖片、惊悚片。而对于60-70年代的法国女孩儿，这就是她们可能面对的现实。
不得不提一下，黄子韬以明星真实身份出现效果太炸了，不要形象的秃顶以及满嘴青岛话，绝对是我观影以来印象最深刻笑点。
《朱诺》→《从不，很少，有时，总是》→《正发生》
比起蒙吉的《四月三周二天》高下立见，差了好几个档次，社会性、时代感不足，剧情、调度、功力都比较一般，好在演员不错，演出了疼痛感。
3星， 有谁想过肚子里孩子的感受， 一个生命就这么被弄死了。
属于只有女性才真完全感同身受的影片，她们的过去并非不是我们的未来。一方面女性身体的掌控权属于自己太重要；另一方面男性在性方面的成本低到离谱。
基本上都是中近景，是为了用画面配合女主在混乱中恐惧茫然的心态吗，视野被高度局限，不知道画框外等待自己的是什么 / “Miss, accept it. You have no choice.” 和善一笑 / 痛感似乎已经成为法国片不可分割的一部分了
与《四月三周二天》《从不、很少、有时、总是》类似，女性意外怀孕的后果总是交由女性独自默默承受。
3星， 有谁想过肚子里孩子的感受， 一个生命就这么被弄死了。
镜头压得人喘不过气，贯彻始终的不安与焦虑，一种只会攻击女人的病，很难不让人想起罗马尼亚杰作《四月三周又两天》
如果生下这个孩子需要以我的一生为代价，那我永远也不会爱它。它也不会想被生下来 。
3 4 7 10 semaines. 没有麻醉，堕胎长镜头，直到那一声啊！阴道流出的血状物。
总觉得不如四月三周两天好，也许部分片段会令人不适但也还好。摄影机时刻给女主中景甚至是景别到脸的位置，其实是有一种二重性的-仿佛让观众始终是被保护着与屏住呼吸近距离观察堕胎这一过程。
时空错位的感觉最令人震惊，好几次以为这部电影的时间设置是当代... 疼痛和无力感仍然正发生着
沈腾真是人才啊……喜剧外衣悲剧内核的片子也驾驭的这么娴熟……开心麻花团队是真的可以……有欢乐有笑容……煽情也不过分……nice
但片子倒确实可谓同类故事中的范本式电影，导演的视听技艺不俗。也能成功让男性观众也由之而深觉:堕胎是女性的权利，反堕胎不可取。金狮奖或许没错拿。
太中规中矩了，从剧情到人物毫无惊喜，而且尬煽情尬配乐太多。如果改成沈腾+袋鼠+人工智能（马丽）的组合，地球幸存者直到亮灯才出现会更好看吧，要玩就玩的邪一点，出人意表一点，中年搞笑男+无情ai女+暴力动物，妥妥相声漫才人兽机恋爱组合。
从柏林-戛纳-威尼斯，都把最高奖项给了这种关于女性题材其实就可以看出女性的发掘是当下创作的宝藏和灵感之地。这等题材可以有很多拍法，也很难不想到《四月三周两天》，没那样冰冷，也没有更很强大的表达能力，碍于体裁和设定冷冰冰再次上演一个残次品的故事。但是它更疼，更绝望，没有人知道，没有人怜惜，没有下文，是那一夜冰冷痛不欲生和文学宿命的写作泉涌。
全程被打到不能自已 布雷亚的女人在树林里草草结束了自己的初夜 正发生的anne在厨房匆匆开始了人流 这些人是同一拨人 那么渴望又痛苦地活着 看到短评里的女权口号简直烦透了 电影给的是沉浸式体验 是给不能调整的胸罩肩带上别针 孕期忍不住饥饿偷吃食物 洗浴间的female gaze 夹枕头触碰g点 色情贴画 孕期需要support的性爱 以及那些寒光凛凛的手术刀 镜头频频对准女主的私处 当听到马桶里胚胎掉落的声音整个人绷不住了 就是这个声音 用杂物剪刀剪脐带 这些记忆会让我一辈子憎恶男人/爸爸在中段才出现 制造了一些让人想要遗忘的记忆 即使他看着那么可爱 让我明白为什么他是孩子的爸爸 男性朋友的帮忙 夹杂了随之而来让人难以忍受的爱抚 酒吧的调情 当你是女人时 每人每刻都在提醒你是个女人 5/10
