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.。故事发生在一个普通的北方家庭中，男主杨宝坤是一位工厂厂长杨富贵的儿子，处于青春期的他与其他孩子一样，抽烟、喝酒，每天游手好闲，对喜欢跳舞的马兰产生爱意，梦想着能有一辆摩托车接送马兰回家，与此同时，杨宝坤的母亲和杨宝坤妹妹意外的将杨富贵与工厂女工赵艳红捉奸在床，杨富贵的工厂又处于危机当中。杨宝坤该如何选择自己的生活，身为家庭主妇的宝坤母亲将怎样对待自己的家庭和爱情？杨富贵又将如何处理情人与自己妻子之间的关系？这一连串的问题，围绕着这个真实而又普通的家庭最终又该如何抉择？。
