丈夫為了迎娶年輕的安妮，不惜以牧師身份替被指控女巫的安妮之母脫罪，原本以為會繼續宗教自省的主題，沒想到兒子居然與年輕不少的繼母安妮發展出賞心悅目的情愫，最後再以安妮被指控女巫作為結束，最後一部德萊葉，最餘韻蕩迴的德萊葉，最喜歡的德萊葉。( 葛楚也只好退居第二 )

兒子很像年輕的 Dennis Hopper。

片尾的十字架上頭多了兩撇，變成類似雨傘的符號，是有關邪教或撒旦意味的象徵嗎？

Filmed during the Nazi occupation of Denmark, Carl Dreyer's DAY OF ANGER is a harrowing account of individual helplessness in the face of growing social repression and paranoia. Anna, the young second wife of a well-respected but much older pastor, falls in love with her stepson when he returns to their small 17th-century village where stepping outside the bounds of the village's harsh moral code has disastrous results.

infiltrate (v.)



can combine with two groups of prepositions.

If the locution (慣用語) designates the place, group, or other entity that is being infiltrated,

the prepositions are into (Our agents hope to infiltrate into their [intelligence-gathering organization])

and sometimes to (Our pioneer companies infiltrated to the [enemy supply dumps] on the other bank).

If the locution designates who or what is doing the infiltrating, then with or by are the prepositions:

Their intelligence agency was infiltrated at several levels with [by] our agents.

Other prepositions also occur occasionally, including among, from, through, toward, and within:

Our spies infiltrated among [through, within] the crowd.

Our scouts were told to infiltrate from [toward] the ravine. (溝壑,深谷)

Infiltrate can also be transitive and take a direct object, without a preposition:

We infiltrated [their perimeter line].

allegory, fable, myth, parable (nn.)

An allegory is a narrative, drama, or device in which characters and events symbolize ideas or abstractions.

A fable is a story with a moral or lesson to impart, often through the actions of animals that speak and act like people;

one extended sense is pejorative: fables never really happen, so they're lies.

A parable is a brief story told to illustrate a moral or religious idea.

A myth is a narrative that explains the prehistory of a people, often dealing with their origins and their gods;

by extension it is a modern effort to represent the origins and values of a race or nation, and, by the very nature of its imaginative qualities, it has acquired pejorative senses.

楊波貝蒙隨即映入眼簾，可惜檔期不配合。有趣的是，宣傳打著 From the director of ARMY OF SHADOWS，原來這片1969年拍完，2006年才在美國上映，並獲選為紐約影評人協會獎的最佳外語片。

基本上 Film Forum 就是分成獨立製片和經典老片兩大類，看了 Repertory Calendar 如報紙分類廣告般目不暇給的片單，我只能說紐約愛看電影的人真幸福，或者說愛看電影就得到紐約朝聖一番。

History

以上段落就可以明顯感受到 Anthology Film Archives 是個比較學院派的地方。

想像一群大學生或是剛上班不忘看電影的社會新鮮人，口沫橫飛擠眉弄眼地爭論楚浮和高達的愛恨情仇，佐以楚浮未婚妻多正為什麼要香消玉殞，高達前妻更千嬌百媚的八卦話題。

再想像戴著眼鏡書卷氣濃厚，或許 nerdy 點的研究生與老學究，正經八百地探討柏格曼和布列松，進入藏書室查閱資料的隊伍井然有序。

Film Forum 新鮮有趣，平易近人，從宣傳和片單就可以體會到那股青春活力。AFA 不管命名本身，簡約的網站設計，還是較為艱澀的片單 ( 只認得法斯賓達，有夠沒成就感。)，充滿拘謹不苟，甚至莊嚴肅穆的氣息，但他們的圖書館還有畫廊讓我非常有興趣，一切或許根本和想像不同！

德國終戰三部曲首部曲女主角很正：Alexandra Maria Lara

繼「帝國毀滅」「英雄教育」後德國終戰三部曲之完結篇。

對德國歷史文化一向冷感 ( 所以荷索讓我大開眼界 )，但片名 / 演員強迫症可不是一天兩天的事。

Downfall / Der Untergang (2004)

帝國毀滅

劇情簡介：1945年4月希特勒臨終前，貼身秘書記錄下他藏身於柏林地下碉堡內的最後掙扎，面對大勢已去，希特勒必須選擇做最後垂死抵抗或是逃離現場。

Traudl Junge

Traudl Junge (16 March 1920 – 10 February 2002), born Gertraud Humps, was Adolf Hitler's youngest personal private secretary, from December 1942 to April 1945.

希特勒最年輕的秘書女主角放在後頭。

Before the Fall / Napola (2004)

英雄教育

劇情簡介：「英雄教育」透過兩個對人生懷抱熱切夢想的年輕人，因為一心想成為德國統帥而加入NAPOLA軍事寄宿學校。但經過了一連串的事件後，他們不得不重新檢視自己的人生觀，以及他們夢想中的錦繡前程。「英雄教育」揭露了這所納粹精英學校裡，表面名為訓練精英、教育英雄，骨子裡實為魔鬼訓練的恐怖真相。

Sophie Scholl: The Final Days / Sophie Scholl: Die Letzten Tage (2005)

帝國大審判

劇情簡介：繼「帝國毀滅」「英雄教育」後德國終戰三部曲之完結篇。一九四三年，爆發在德國慕尼黑，蘇菲丘爾 (茱莉雅珍祺) 和她的哥哥漢斯丘爾都隸屬「白玫瑰」反納粹的秘密組織。他們在慕尼黑大學從事革命運動，結果兩人在二月十八日雙雙被捕。蘇菲丘爾被納粹判死刑，並在一九四三年二月二十二日被執行處死。這部片就是在講當時慕尼黑大學生物及哲學雙修的女大學生，後來成為全德國永遠懷念的女英雄─蘇菲死前最後幾天的故事。

Edelweiss Pirates / Edelweißpiraten (2004)

小白花海盜幫 ( 不屬於德國終戰三部曲 )

劇情簡介：卡爾的父親為德國第三共和的勝利光榮出征，弟弟則是希特勒青年軍的成員。十七歲的卡爾和朋友不願服從納粹體制，因為他們是「小白花海盜幫」。儘管蓋世太保橫行霸道，小白花海盜幫依舊能在亂世中自得其樂：鎮日躲避漫天飛舞的砲彈轟炸，順手在牆上搞個反戰塗鴉，頂多和希特勒青年軍發生幾場零星衝突。他單戀守寡的嫂嫂西莉，但西莉不把卡爾的追求當一回事，她希望能有真正成熟的男人愛她，在一次卡爾和友人對逃犯漢斯捨命搭救過後，西莉負責照顧重傷的漢斯因此相戀，看在卡爾眼裡除了忌妒，心中的憎恨更不自覺湧上心頭。另一方面納粹急欲消滅所有反抗份子，漢斯頓時成為頭號通緝犯，小白花海盜幫名列重要清查目標。

原來我把小白花和白玫瑰搞混了。
