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.。影片讲述了一位音乐制作人，长期得过且过的度日，某天在一家即将结业的咖啡店，被老板一顿痛斥他不求上进之后，他自暴自弃的灌醉自己，却无意中穿越到16年前的相同咖啡店，经历了一幕平淡而又凄离的故事，使他完全转变了对怀恨已久的咖啡店老板的态度，他想要改变故事的发展，却发现原来一切的原因和结果都来源于他自己，消逝的终将消逝......。这是一部关于街拍鼻祖比尔·坎宁安（Bill Cunningham）的纪录片。已入耄耋之年的比尔依然是纽约时报的一名摄影师，拥有自己的板面专栏“On the Street”以及“Evening Hours”。他从六十年代起便一直沉迷街拍，并享受工作。在比尔的镜头下，不管你是上流名人、普通工人甚至是下城居民，只要你着装出位有个性，比尔都乐于捕捉你的美。几乎所有的时尚界人士都认识并尊重这位摄影顽童，就连著名时尚杂志Vogue的女主编安娜·温图尔（Anna Wintour）也说：“我们都为比尔着盛装。”然而，这样一位几乎把一生都献给了时尚且功不可没的老人，依然住在狭小工作室里，每天骑着自行车上街拍照，不过老人家却觉得这样最好，对他来说，拍照以外的任何事都无关紧要，能够自由地捕捉新鲜，才是他的追求。 本片推出后深受欢迎，先后在悉尼电影节、南塔基特电影节、墨尔本...。
