　　The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
　　The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
　　the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
　　Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.

　　韦克菲尔德监狱建有自己的农场和牧场，但出产的粮食和牲畜却都不知去向，政府配给他们的补给品也总是会在一周之内便被消耗殆尽。囚犯们经常服苦役，却只能吃到仅有的一点很差的食物，还时常被无端施以各种体罚，因此生活苦不堪言。新任监狱长布鲁贝克在假扮囚犯亲身体验过这一切后，下定决心要整顿监狱秩序，为囚犯们争取到合法的生存条件。
　　随着布鲁贝克对滥用职权、贪污腐败、行贿受贿行为的逐步清理，最初那些对他持有怀疑态度的犯人们也都纷纷站到了他的一边。然而与此同时，被触动了利益的当地人士和政府官员们也开始暗中设置各种障碍，并不断对他施加各种压力，阻挠监狱改革的进行。最终布鲁贝克被迫离开了监狱，但在他的努力之下，有关监狱制度的改善也早已是大势所趋，不容逆转。
　　监狱作为禁锢个人自由的牢笼，理所当然汇集了各种冲突和戏剧性，因此一直是电影创作的一个重要源泉。影片《黑狱金刚》便可以算是美国监狱题材影片的先行者。它以韦克菲尔德监狱新任监狱长布鲁贝克为中心，从他的视角出发，一步步向观众揭示出了许多不为人知的黑幕。
　　精彩视点：
　　影片根据真人真事改编而成，它所揭示的沉重的社会现实问题极具震撼力。
　　片中男主人公布鲁贝克的扮演者是美国影坛“教父”罗伯特•雷德福。他自六十年代进入影坛后，先后凭借《虎豹小霸王》、《骗中骗》等影片迅速窜红。随后他开始自导自演，相继拍摄了《走出非洲》、《大河恋》、《马语者》等多部影片，多次获得奥斯卡奖。值得一提的是，罗伯特•雷德福1984年创办了世界最有影响力的独立电影节之一--圣丹斯国际电影节，二十年来该电影节推出了很多优秀电影人才和作品，雷德福也因此成为了青年导演眼中的“教父”。
　　美国著名黑人影星摩根•费里曼在本片中也有精彩表演。虽然只有短短几分钟的时间，但他塑造的歇斯底里的死囚犯形象却令人过目不忘。也正是从这部影片令年过不惑的他结束了多年来默默无闻的演艺生涯，成为了少数颇具分量的黑人演员之一。

　　In the time of Counter-Reformation, a miller and his son come under investigation by a priest of the Inquisition, when rumors spread that their prosperity comes from working with the Devil.
　　The Devil's Trap is a film directed by František Vlá?il, based on a novel by Alfréd Technik, adapted by František A. Dvorák and Miloš Kratochvíl. It was the first of three historical dramas that Vlá?il made during the Czech New Wave (technically he isn't really a part of the New Wave, however these films were made during the same era of artistic freedom), preceding his more well known Marketa Lazarová (1967) and Valley of the Bees (1968).
　　Set in the late 16th Century during the Catholic Reformation, in the Moravian Karst, situated in what is now the Eastern Czech Republic, it tells the tale of a miller (Vítezslav Vejrazka), and his son Jan (Vít Olmer), who come under suspicion and are investigated by a Jesuit priest of the Inquisition (Miroslav Macháchek), when rumors of witchcraft are spread by the local regent (Cestmír Randa), who is jealous of the miller's prosperity and degree of respect among the local populace.
　　As expected from Vlá?il, this film is a stunning experience all the way through. From the opening shot, an ominous manipulation of perspective with a close up of a mangled figure of Christ dominating the foreground against a tiny figure in black walking along the horizon, to the breathtaking confrontational finale inside the vast stalactite filled Karst caverns, it is a wonderful display of visual mastery.
　　Maybe not quite as impressive as Marketa Lazarová, but still full of astonishing imagery. As seen from unique angles and distinct points of view which highlight the director's remarkable sense of awareness of framing, motion, and positioning on the emotional and dramatic tone of the scene. The most memorable being a repeated shot where the camera is suspended and launched with speed through the air towards the miller's door.
　　The story here is a simple one and I would say more accessible than his later works. With a conventional structure emphasized as much by its plot and characters, than by its expressionistic cinematography or authentic historical detail. The events play out without much surprise, and there is a strong underlying, almost supernatural, mysterious aspect that is left unresolved, in fact barely explored, which is slightly disappointing, but only because it's so fascinating that I wish there was more.
　　Acting is great all around. Particularly the villains: Miroslav Macháchek as the priest, casting a sinister and imposing shadow wherever he goes, and Cestmír Randa as the weasel like regent behind all the persecution. While Vít Olmer brings a charismatic leading man presence in his role as the miller's son Jan, in love with the lovely orphan girl Martina (Karla Chadimová), who becomes a dangerous object of rivalry between Jan and other young men of the village.
　　The film also features the evocative music of Zden?k Liška (perhaps the most prolific composer of the Czech New Wave). In this his second of eleven collaborations with Vlá?il, his compositions are used sparingly, but to great effect, complimenting but never overpowering a scene. The best example of which can be heard in an amazingly shot celebration and dance sequence at the end of the second act.
　　The Devil's Trap might not be a masterpiece, but it is still a strong effort, with a fascinating straightforward story and a glorious historical setting captured beautifully by Vlá?il's unmistakable visual prowess. A fine work that would also be the perfect starter plate to prepare yourself for the challenging feast of Marketa Lazarová or The Valley of the Bees. It even has an easy to digest running time. It's therefore puzzling why this gem remains largely overlooked and ignored.
