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.。葡萄牙古城基马拉斯被选为2012欧洲文化之都，三导带同他们的3D摄影机，趁机炮制一回回过去与未来的影像对话实验。彼得格连纳韦大玩分屏、声画过场、浮动文字、视觉特效；佩拉则搬出柏拉图洞穴比喻，以逆转的视线建议观众思考真实和幻象的关系；高达更一于「话之你」，让3D摄影机对镜自拍，编就另类自恋诗篇，顺便向电影语言开一次严肃的玩笑。不用怀疑什么叫极端，因为激进的本义就藏在这铁三角里。改变不了他们，就让他们改变你和你的固有世界！。
