这部纪录片是对鲍勃迪伦1965年英国巡演的忠实记录,导演彭内贝克用影像清晰的说明那时的鲍勃迪伦与披头士是多么的不同。与同时期的《苦难日之夜》相比,《别回头》更直接,深刻,对自己的拍摄对象也没有造星般的刻意吹捧,甚至还毫不掩饰的可以嘲讽,但是,再冷静的镜头都无法掩盖年轻迪伦的灿烂光芒,同现在的老迪伦相比,年轻的他无与伦比的傲慢,机智,激情洋溢,而其中一段以垮掉派代表艾伦金斯堡为背景的开场更是弥足珍贵。
98岁的陈玉平(Grace Lee Boggs)是一位生活在底特律的作家、倡权者和哲学家。这是一部关于她的思想、倡权行动和生活的纪录片《美国革命:陈玉平的演进》(American Revolutionary: The Evolution of Grace Lee Boggs)。 陈玉平出生于1915年,父母是移民,经营中餐馆。陈玉平从小生活舒适,但感到社会需要变革。她毕业于伯纳德学院,后在布林莫尔学院攻读哲学,1940年获得博士学位。由于少数族裔在当时美国社会的境遇,毕业后,她在芝加哥大学的哲学图书馆谋得一份低薪工作。她在租住的地区无意中见到非裔市民抗议,从此关注和参与非裔美国人争取平等权利的民权运动。 后来,她到有大量汽车工人的底特律,和汽车制造工人和工人权益倡权人士James Boggs结婚。陈玉平和新婚丈夫度蜜月时,不得不在车里过夜,因为当时的种族隔离法令她的非裔新婚丈夫无法入住汽车旅馆。她成了非裔社区的一分子,参与当地的民权运动。 陈玉平的思想深受黑格尔的辩证法和马克思的社会发展理论的影响。她的思想不断地演变,如今,她倡导非暴力,在家门口的草坪上放着“不要战争”的牌子。她认为,不应该将希望寄托在领导人身上,变化应该从自身开始。年届高龄,她还组织“底特律暑假” 和“社区花园”项目,在一个衰落的城市里致力于社区的重建。
德国柏林动物园的小北极熊克鲁特,是现在全市最受宠的小家伙,在最近一次电视台举行的投票活动中,高票当选“柏林市最重要居民”。乖巧可爱的小努特每天都要吸引无数游园者的目光。小北极熊克鲁特一亮相就拥有耀眼夺目的明星风采,马上就变成柏林动物园的镇园之宝。 这头可爱的小北极熊,有着一段凄惨的遭遇。去年12月,母熊妈妈生下克鲁特和它的孪生兄弟后,就把它们丢弃在了洞穴里。克鲁特的兄弟不久后就夭折了,而小克鲁特却幸运地被饲养员救了出来。从那以后,克鲁特的生活就大变样了,喝牛奶,吃鱼肝油,鸡汤进补,睡觉的时候抱着泰迪熊。也正是这种娇生惯养的状况,让一些动物保护人士看不惯了。他们认为这样做会破坏野生动物的天性。有的人甚至提出应该给克鲁特打毒针,让它安乐死。 不过,看着小克鲁特一双无辜的大眼睛,实在没人下得了手。柏林动物园最终还是决定留下克鲁特。柏林动物园园长说,如今全球气候变暖,再加上人类在北极附近活动频繁,严重威胁着北极熊的生存。科学家预测,照这样下去,北极熊将在100年内灭绝。因此,可爱的小克鲁特就越发显得珍贵。 纪录片《Knut und seine Freunde》叙述了小北极熊克鲁特如何征服全世界的故事。
On 6 May 1945, soldiers of the 88th US Infantry Division occupied the Himmlers’ family home in Gmund on Lake Tegernsee where they discovered hundreds of private letters, documents, journals and photographs. The film makes use of these materials and copious archive footage to sketch the biography of SS commander Heinrich Himmler who committed suicide at the end of May 1945 by taking a cyanide capsule. How did this nationalistic lower-middle-class man become Hitler’s henchman responsible for developing and executing the strategies that led to the murder of millions of Jews, homosexuals, Communists and Romany people? Where did his ideology originate? How did he see himself and how was he perceived in private by his wife Margarete, his daughter Gudrun and his mistress Hedwig? How could the man who often referred to so-called German virtues such as order, decency and goodness also write home in the midst of the war and Holocaust: ‘I am well in spite of my heavy workload’? What was it that caused his daughter to say after a visit to Dachau concentration camp: ‘It was lovely …’ A film about the pretensions of a mass murderer and the repression of any sense of guilt. Berlinale 2014
Professor Mary Beard, renowned classicist and TV historian, is to explore what life was like in one of the world’s most extraordinary and iconic archaeological sites, in Pompeii: Life Before Death, a new landmark programme for BBC One. Mary Beard – a world Pompeii expert and author of Pompeii: Life Of A Roman Town – will be joining an international team as they bring the very latest technology to bear on this most extraordinary of archaeological sites. Mary Beard says: “This is a really exciting chance to find out more about the ordinary people who lived in ancient Pompeii. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'm hoping we're going to unlock some if the secrets about who the people were.” For the first time, a team is CT scanning and fully investigating the world-famous casts of the bodies to analyse the skeletons trapped within, to ascertain all they can about who they were, where they came from and how they lived. A team is also conducting DNA analysis of the bodies for the first time. Elsewhere, the documentary will follow the work of recovering damaged frescoes and mosaics, the excavation and rebuilding of certain key buildings and the organisation and cataloguing of the thousands of astonishing artefacts in the storerooms – from loaves of bread to pet monkeys, paint pots to purses. It will shine a light on the work of archaeologists who are exploring the third of the town that has never been excavated, and will present a unique first look at the complete Pompeii in stunning CGI. Using the evidence gleaned from all this research, the BBC One film will piece together a full picture of daily life in Pompeii before the town was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD79.
