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.。“就算没有房，也依然要有明确的思想和喜好”做了三年家政帮佣的微笑（李絮饰）人生中只要有一杯威士忌、一口烟和心爱的男友就足矣，可随着新年到来，房租不断攀升，威士忌和烟的价格也不断上涨，薪水却依然毫无波动，既然自己的喜好变得越来越贵，那么便只有放弃房子。可爱的现代版小公主微笑的城市漂流生活就此开始，就算没有房子，生活还是照着自己喜爱的方式继续着…。
