In 1909, amidst the dying old west, Willie Boy, a long distance Desert Runner by Chemehuevi tradition, falls in love with young native beauty, Carlota. Carlota's father, a Chemehuevi shaman and local tribal leader, refuses to let the young couple be together. In a fatal confrontation, Carlota's father falls dead to an accidental gun shot and the young lovers flee to the sun enslaved Mohave desert. The local sheriff leads a mounted posse armed with fire power and two Native American trackers seeking justice for their "murdered" tribal leader. Willie Boy and Carlota evade capture outlasting the men and their horses. However, fake news stories meant to sell papers adds to the mounting pressure to capture Willie Boy. In a desert that purifies all, the search for Willie Boy forces everyone to face their own demons in this tragic tale of love, death, and desert heat
《最后的追捕》。5分。
杰森·莫玛编剧，克里斯蒂安·卡玛戈导演作品。
是的，你没看错，这部剧是“海王”杰森·莫玛写的，他还在剧中客串了警察一角。
作为西部片迷，自然一如既往的热爱片中的风景与原创音乐。不过，受限于电影画面拍摄采用的4:3的比例，风景的广镜头基本没法看，而影片后面对决的半小时近景拍摄，风光真是太美了。
故事极其简单。部落少年爱上族长的女儿，两人决定私奔。族长强烈反对，过程中少年不小心开枪走火射死族长。于是，私奔变成了逃亡。警方请出部落追踪高手一路追踪，却失手眼花射杀了少女，少年虽然愤怒，但仍然只射杀了追踪者的马匹。这一举动感动了警方，于是追踪结束。同行的记者制造少年被杀的假新闻，平息了事件。
很遗憾，这是个可以丰富的好故事，沿途有极美的风景，但导演没能表现出来。
