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.
不懂日文，就不敢说读过原著。按此道理，反而更愿意接受一个电影版。虽然仍需要字幕理解对白，但视觉的丰富，以及三味线的奏唱，还原着意境。川端康成原著的故事，无需复述。拍成影片，必定经过导演的理解再加工，就很难不被指摘。可这又何妨？这次的氛围很好了。奈绪的美演绎了驹子，迷乱了岛村，也迷乱我。最后，从驹子的角度再理解一遍已经发生的。解释了“迷乱”，诠释了性别、阶级不同而产生的错位。爱与不爱都被冻在这雪国了，那里是另个世界～
还可以，关键主演颜值加分了。剧情可以压缩一下，更加紧凑
有一些改编不太喜欢，司马辽太郎应该不会这么写，大概是导演编剧跟庆喜有仇把他写的那么夸张？平助不是土方砍死的，池田屋杀阵好敷衍，是我看过所有新选组有池田屋场景最敷衍的一个版本，山崎烝的话痨，乡下版土方小碎步的走路方式总觉得很不土方，总之导演刻意要加一些喜感的元素反而很画蛇添足，局长
没看过原著。不过挺喜欢电影里的意境和念白式的推进。徒劳，無駄，一个是岛村先生的用词，一个是驹子的用词，一个用局外人的眼光看，一个从局中人的角度看，但意思都一样。我很爱你，我为你做了那么多，可是有什么用，有人依然会死，有人如期离去，独剩那个依然有所期盼的女子，在雪中等待。
物哀之美仅在表面，大量画外音和最后驹子日记的重述视角，也让电影显得一般。
先看了电影，再看了小说。电影的岛村有些时候觉得没演好，反应不应该这么木的，但是在看完小说后，突然才明白为什么男主这么处理这个角色，处理的挺好的。但是故事的结尾给我一种很仓促的感觉，导演没处理好的感觉，明明可以很高好的。但总体还不错。
不是应该让我开开心心身体健康的长久才能当好编剧😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
作为入门的剥削片爱好者不会给这片好脸色，搞艺术电影就别碰瓷砍杀片了，再说你这推镜头和跳切剪辑也没多少新意啊，居然还有人说是年度恐怖片，剧情上严重失真就不说嘞，你想致敬70s恐怖片也没抓住精髓啊，这老头老太的即视感跟正儿八经slasher比差得不是一点半点，想找新视角却显得格外生硬，甚至可以说很雷人。《农场主的女儿们》原片比这部有才华得多，这部电影最先锋的手法也不过是三次连续跳切而已，人家那部真军片都有农场风蒙太奇增添新鲜感，而且这片里那个艺术男照你那法子拍porn早破产了，怼脸拍不拍正经东西的hardcore片不是胡闹吗？
有趣，是我喜欢的那种恐怖/血浆片。里面没有强行降智行为，而是以色情片作为引入。女主一人分饰两角也很有意思，导演的视听语言让整部电影的质感更是上了一个层次。总体而言A24出品的恐怖片还是有一定水准的。想看《农场主的女儿》……
武士道精神的最后捍卫者-土方岁三，建议先了解一下背景再看
结尾，本该倾泻而下的情感，却于理性的叙事中轻飘飘地消散了。艺伎的命运在首尾呼应中成了空荡隧道的回音，仿佛不曾在大火中崩塌。只觉得和雪国的雪一样冷。
整个形式都很喜欢，复古的氛围中嵌套着复古的情色片拍摄，衰老一代的压抑爆发和小碧池的反杀，可解读和玩味的点很多也很有趣，很多拍摄镜头复古且充满对经典恐怖片的致敬，A24又一部充满个性小而美的电影。
近藤的命运、土方的命运早在他们还在武州多摩打闹的时候就决定了，要带着他们的武士精神，与幕府一起覆灭。
奈绪原来这么美~每一帧都好美,哭起来可太苍凉了～
奈绪的表演太流畅了 干净又漂亮 没看过原著 一知半解
白雪皑皑中的男主女主太好看了，其他已经不重要了
便是雪国
氛围不错。可惜没看过原著，不知道对原著的感觉表达的如何？
嘴上说着徒劳，最后没人成功超脱，还带点解谜味道。nao在这里真是太美了，一开始还觉得不昭和，属于是越看越迷人的造型和演技
其实就是常规虐杀片，味儿还挺对的，除了那些故弄玄虚的转场的腔调以及拿老年人开玩笑实在有点mean以外。后半段对于动机解释的敷衍和整体复古情调的还原相互抵消，也就没啥可夸的了。（分饰两角靠的也是化妆，又不是演技，大概也就是猎个奇吧
