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.
大伙看着好像都没多大变化...矢作穗香还是那么好看😍😍
刀死了。。
其实和龙骑一样的套路 相信极端希望的代价就是必须为此付出生命 只有这样伦理的正义才能实现 他者的呼唤才能被回应 大抵如此 无论是龙骑还是OOO最终的结论都是某种他者论的结果 我需要为他者死亡... 作为10周年纪念某种意义上也是忠于OOO这个“我的欲望就是他者的呼喊”这一主题...
为了刀而刀的感觉
还不如超movie大战
【B】继faiz、decade后，平成第三位死亡的骑士，剧情还是过于仓促，60分钟时长完全不够看，老角色的回归真的略显尴尬，映司的死没有太多的感情铺垫，观感还是比较一般
十年了，以前周末放假一周一集，竟然可以全员回归，真就全员呗。怎么说也是诚意满满了，就这五星必须给。 剧情虽然感觉赶了点，但是一个小时的量，其实也已经很不错了，相当可以。唉满满的都是回忆啊。 看到反派那真是一点没变化，让我误以为着十年就没过去一样。吗的时间过的真快这就十年了，不拍不觉得，拍了感觉一切跟以前一样，又感觉有点不一样。
前几十分钟场面有点局限，不够宏大，有那么些失望，但最后的打斗还行，逻辑上有点强行，但也没办好，条件所限。我爱假面骑士OOO。(真的舍不得打低分)
和rider time龙骑接触差不多，都是换成主角牺牲复活好兄弟。
打情怀牌就打的好一点，不三不四的，不如不拍。TV结局不是HE，本来已经神作了，以为电影要来个俗套的改变，搞个大团圆啥的，结果从一个悲剧变成另一个悲剧，把映司给我搞没了，这魔改也就东映做的出来，而且映司可以说是根本没出场吧，这像话吗？真的，不如不拍。（多给1分给情怀）
怎么说呢 欧兹的起点在哪里 初心在何处 他跟其它骑士有什么不一样 想一想就觉得这结局挺好 愿望这东西 实现了就死日式故事
情怀够了，剧情流畅，节奏紧凑，不知道还有没有20周年🥺
期待值拉满最终却被狠狠殇到了。但即便如此还是很喜欢，我的ooo，我的映安。
TV的回放其实可以不用
编剧你不会写可以不写 搞个十周年恶心人？滚！我宁愿接受tv结局 你搁这反复横跳是吧？
所以希望他复活是你个人的心愿吗火野映司，那你希望的到底是他得到真正的生命、还是一个你们共同存在的明天呀？
两星都是给情怀的。只作为一个故事讲得也不合格……既然选择了be还这么处处透着敷衍，那这样的十周年纪念我宁愿不要。
有刀有糖
刀子啊刀子😭😭😭代打那段复刻经典直接破防😭😭😭
大概是我长大了，又或者是剧场版里没有主题曲，这次的新内容我是没有被故事感动到的，但是回忆的片段还是有那么一些让人触动的，即使我已忘了小时候看OOO热血澎湃的感觉。
