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.。风景如画的清河镇边上已经不知道什么时候来了一只猫，和他一起的还有一只牡羊，他和猫都一样失去了记忆，这只猫身上似乎有着神秘的诅咒，所有靠近他们的人都会受到诅咒，这只猫却又努力的想要与村人接近，但因为诅咒，所有的村人都避开他在漫长的日子中，星猫和牡羊卷毛不断地回忆自己的过往，就这样渡过了很长的时间，直到有一天他们接近村子附近的一座古塔，遭遇到了小黑怪手下的绑架并得知了他们的身世之谜，自此展开了他们的冒险旅行…。
