Herbert Vesely was one of the promises for a new German cinema already in the 50's, but after the 60's his star was already dimmed. He made a small number of films in the 70's and 80's, all non too good. This biography of Egon Schiele, one of the most important Austrian artists, is an example of the pretensions and emptiness of a Vesely-film of later date.
The life of Schiele is presented here as a puzzle| well, Vesely thinks that Schiele's life was a puzzle: the core of the story is centered around the famous 1912 pornography trial and using this as base the film shows fragments of past and future. The problem is that it never becomes a unity and that the order of scenes and sequences seems to be at random: a cut-and-paste job that could have had any other result. Indeed, after seeing it twice I am almost convinced of it that a unsatisfactory linear thought-out film was changed into the puzzle in the editing room. Egon Schiele was an enigmatic man, but not a total puzzle, and this film does not bring him any closer.
The films also fails in conveying the eroticism and meaning of the Schiele's paintings: the camera watches and glides over the models without any understanding of Schiele's intentions, we only see beautiful naked bodies. If interested in Schiele, you better buy a book with his works in stead.。影片讲述人到中年的龙妈,终生心愿就是希望三子女能开枝散叶,圆她当祖母之愿。但三子女多年来毫无生育计划,未能让龙妈妈如愿。就在迎接龙年第一天时,一个可爱的宝宝竟然出现在龙家!宝宝的出现虽让龙妈妈欢庆鼓舞,却也让发生在龙家的事物迂迴曲折 ...。裘德在农村长大,一心要用知识改变命运,考取大学成为了他的奋斗目标。但是,年少的欲望却让他与当地一个姑娘发生了关系,大学梦也随之破碎。
