回复 :这部由HBO自制的电影是「汉堡高地」导演约翰艾文的又一战争写实影片，背景设在第二次世界大战，血腥的贺根森林之役。在整排的袍泽被敌人歼灭后，唯一幸存的二等兵大卫曼宁（朗爱德 饰，「彗星撞地球」、「豪情四兄弟」）被升为士官，由于承受不了带领新兵的压力，曼宁以精神不适任的理由申请退役，然而曼宁的指挥官（马丁唐纳文 饰，「她和他和他们之间」）却向他提出条件只要带兵攻下一座德军的哨站，他就将曼宁的退役申请呈报上去。但在残酷无情的战争中，重要的并非胜利，而是如何自战场上生还。当提起第二次世界大战的史诗电影时，「拯救雷恩大兵」及「红色警戒」或许已抢尽锋芒，但该片绝对是一部不容错过且毫不逊色的最佳战争写实电影

回复 :This apocalyptic parable carries within it a clear echo of the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia. This unforgiving exploration of the Czech mentality tells the tale of a troupe of wandering actors who perform a passion play in some unnamed village. Fear of some unknown danger breaks out in the village, which is cut off from the surrounding world. Stupidity, selfishness and aggressiveness then come to the surface in this society under threat. In the film's key scene, a woman is raped by the self-styled leader. Zdenuk Mahler, who would later work on Forman's examination Mozart Amadeus, worked on the script.The director Evald Schorm (1929-1988) was one of the most original members of the Czech "New Wave". During the "normalization" era, Schorm spent many years unable to direct. His last film, Killing with Kindness (1988) was only made in the twilight years of Communism. During that period when he was unable to direct films, he became an outstanding stage director. He directed groundbreaking productions at the "Na zábradlí" Theater and Laterna Magika.
