The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。1971年，葡萄牙殖民战争仍未结束，被派往南非安哥拉的青年医师只能通过书信与怀孕的妻子诉说前线的见闻，他在异乡所见的自然、人文全部都化作信中既温暖又饱含思念之情的文字。但当战事越演越烈，人性最丑陋的一面终于再也藏不住了，书信里的言语也变得困惑难解...电影用壮阔绝美的黑白影像，谱写了一曲残酷的战争寓言。。圣丹斯文艺片好手塞巴斯蒂安·席尔瓦又有新作《水晶仙子》亮相，又是他自编自导，依然是好搭档迈克尔·塞拉领衔，本片在今年的圣丹斯获得世界电影单元剧情片导演大奖。影片呈现了一段公路之旅，塞拉和三个智力男女为了寻找可以致幻的圣佩德仙人掌小赚一笔踏上了旅途，公路之旅看起来轻松有趣 ，甚至有那么点嬉皮士的浪漫味道。。
