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.。阿蓝是一只世界上极其稀少的蓝色金刚鹦鹉,当他还是雏鸟时,便被可鄙的偷猎者从里约的热带丛林中掳到美国。阴差阳错,他变成了小女孩琳达的宠物,从此相伴多年,如今的阿蓝俨然一个养尊处优的宅男,甚至忘记了如何飞行。某天,名叫图里奥的鸟类学家经过琳达经营的书店,他被阿蓝所震惊,并希望能将阿蓝带回里约,与世上仅存的另外一只雌鸟繁衍后代。 虽然心怀不安,但是考虑到蓝色金刚鹦鹉的命运,琳达还是带着阿蓝来到里约。阿蓝顺利见到了美丽的同类茱儿。茱儿则一心逃离樊笼,回归大自然。与此同时,一伙犯罪分子盯上了这群可爱的小生灵……。
