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.。本剧改编自原著“科莫兰·斯特莱克”系列的第五本《混沌之血》。 私家侦探Cormoran Strike正在康沃尔探亲,一位女士找到他,希望他帮忙寻找自己在1974年神秘失踪的母亲Margot Bamborough。 Strike以前从未处理过悬案,更不用说40年前的案件了,但尽管成功的机会渺茫,他还是很感兴趣,于是接手了这起案件,这成了他和搭档Robin Ellacott正在处理的一长串案件中的又一起。而Robin本人也正忙于应付一团糟的离婚和多余的男性关注,同时还要与自己对Strike的感觉作斗争。 在Strike和Robin调查Margot失踪案的过程中,他们遇到了一个极其复杂的案件,其中有一个变态连环杀手和一些不可信的证人。他们了解到,即使是几十年前的案件也可能被证明是致命的。。
