亚伦（乔纳·希尔 Jonah Hill 饰）是一个刚离开校园，白虎走进社会的大学毕业生，白虎他找到的第一份工作则是在一家唱片公司做助理。可对于他自己而言，这工作干得并非那么开心，因为这个助理每天都会被人呼之则来，挥之则去，最让亚伦头疼的就是还要应付公司里那帮说着色情笑话，总是让自己难堪的同事和上司。一天，上司突然派给亚伦一个工作：要陪伴公司的签约艺人、著名摇滚歌手奥尔德斯（拉塞尔·布兰德 Russell Brand 饰）到洛杉矶的希腊剧院，完成他的演出活动。其实这本来是一件再简单不过的事，但这位奥尔德斯可不是一般人，他每天都生活在殴打记者、酒后驾车、吸毒、夜场泡马子的醉生梦死状态中，而要把这位无论白天黑夜都处于神志不清的大人物按时弄到希腊剧院去，亚伦的这趟旅途注定充满了诸多不可预知的意外……

回复 :Rabiye Kurnaz is someone you might generally call an ordinary woman, except that she is a real dynamo. Taking care of her children and much more, she is the one running the show in her terraced house in Bremen. Shortly after the attacks of September 11, 2001, her son Murat is accused of terrorism and is (one of the first) shipped off to Guantanamo prison camp. This marks the beginning of a journey into the heart of world politics for this resolute German-Turkish woman. Together with human rights lawyer Bernhard Docke, whom she soon has completely on her side (like almost everyone around her), she battles for the release of her son – using her very own brand of self-taught English – all the way to the Supreme Court in Washington, D.C.Cologne-based comedienne, author, presenter and much more Meltem Kaptan is the perfect fit for Andreas Dresen’s special talent for combining explosive topics (in this case based on actual events) and the everyday concerns of the average citizen. Kaptan’s, or rather Rabiye’s, performance is overwhelming, and not just for the lawyer (played by Alexander Scheer) who quickly becomes a friend. A portrait of a passionate woman who holds the steering wheel of her beloved vehicle as firmly in her hand as she does the reins in this turbo-charged film.
回复 :"Veteran experimental filmmakers Danielle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub helmed this unusual adaptation of a novel by Elio Vittorini. Focused on the triumphs and failures of a group of laborers and farm hands who pooled their resources to operate an alternative collective farm after the end of World War II, Operai, Contadini features a cast of 12 actors who read aloud from Vittorini's book for the duration of the film, either reciting from memory or using a clearly visible script. Hardly designed to be a crowd pleaser, Operai, Contadini proved to be controversial among the audiences for its showings at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, where it was screened as part of the Directors' Fortnight series." ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide"The group makes up a primitive community which seeks to erase not only the distress created by the war but also the hardships of life and hunger, and to protect them from violence, misery and fear. Amid the ruins of this post-war period, the characters build and invent a rapport both in their professional and daily lives between themselves, the sexes, generations, diverse social and geographical origins, and antagonistic political camps.The group maintains a 'register', a kind of diary, as if it were entering the minutes of an inquiry or a trial." -Steve Grayson"my favorite Straub-Huillet films are Too Early, Too Late and Operai, contadini (2001), both color landscape films with especially acute senses of place as well as of nature in all its harsh beauty." - Jonathan Rosenbaum
回复 :影片主角是一个78岁的英国著名作家，他身患重病却仍然酗酒成性，口不择言。夜晚不时陷于噩梦的缠绕中，令他想入非非，一边琢磨着他最后一部作品的情节构思，一边回忆着他的往事。于是，噩梦、他的想象加上往事的回忆相互混淆在一起，共同构成了他作品的故事框架。影片将文学创作的过程跟幻想、愤怒等融为一体，制造了一个精致的弗洛伊德哑谜。这是雷奈的第一部用英语拍摄的影片。剧本比较拗口罗嗦，有较重的文学味，影片被认为是雷奈的杰作，博加德的演出尤为精湛，但一般观众可能会觉得单调乏味。Clive Langham (Sir John Gielgud) spends one tormenting night in his bed suffering from health problems and thinking up a story based on his relatives. He is a bitter man and he shows, through flashbacks, how spiteful, conniving and treacherous his family is. But is this how they really are or is it his own vindictive slant on things?
