民国年间，石大头、彭二骡、武山虎三异姓兄弟为湘西名绅沈家齐收养，三人肝胆相照，情同手足。十年后，因缘际会，三兄弟分别投入“国、共、匪”不同阵营，接连不断地卷入政治的明争暗斗，成为你死我活的对手。曾经同生共死的兄弟，在愈发激化的矛盾中，终于走到了割袍断义、挥刀相见的一天……抗日战争爆发，尽管旧日恩仇如山，但在民族大义面前，恩断义绝的三兄弟重新站在了一起。他们各自率部，组建抗日湘军，在“淞沪会战”的关键时刻，远赴杭州湾，凭着简陋的武器，与日军侵略者殊死血战，用鲜血与生命，铸就了气壮山河的血肉长城……。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.。
