《伊甸园》是海明威去世25年后，于1986年根据其书稿几经删改编辑而成。 大卫和凯瑟琳在地中海某旅游城镇度蜜月。大卫是个作家，出版过作品，他迫切希望再现他父亲早年在非洲原野猎象的惊险生活。但妻子凯瑟琳百般阻饶，并烧毁了大卫的全部书稿。这对年轻夫妇间突然插进了另一个年轻美貌的第三者玛丽塔。她欣赏大卫对待写作的态度，大卫对她也倾心。而凯瑟琳促成了他俩的偷情，以补偿自己的孤独和报复心理。故事结尾时，大卫终于在强烈的写作欲望，和在妻子的嫉妒之间找到了新生活，完成了他的心愿。。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.。
