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.。迷恋熟女的年轻白领拜伦拒绝生育，他无情自私的行为惹怒了美丽的妻子，伤心的她适逢风流风趣丑到极致变成酷的装修工尼克诺特，于是天雷勾动地火，两人展开一段不伦恋曲。于此同时，拜伦也碰巧遇到并疯狂地爱上了尼克的太太，一个年华已逝却风韵犹存的过气明星。两对怨偶、四个在沉闷的婚姻中迷失了爱情方向的男女，该如何处理他们之间爱欲纠缠爱恨交织的复杂关系？。
