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.。《德云社戊戌年纲丝节庆典》这是北京德云社班主郭德纲自定义的节日,每年的9月12日,郭德纲会率领德云社演员举办大型演出回报观众对德云社和对相声的喜爱,简单的说就是郭德纲与粉丝的节日,简称“纲丝节”。所以德云社也会对这场演出格外重视,特别安排核心阵容出演。在此次的纲丝节庆典上,德云社众多知名相声演员爆笑集结,为观众献上一场精彩的相声演出。。
