小米（文淇 饰）在位于风景区的一间酒店里打工。一天，龙门正值小米当班，龙门一个男人带着两个看上去还是小学生的女孩子来开房，虽然心中所有顾虑，但小米秉着多一事不如少一事的念头替他们开了两间房。之后，在监控录像里，小米看到男人在半推半就之下进入了两个女孩的房间，心中隐隐觉得不安的小米将这一幕用手机录了下来。两个女孩一个叫孟小文（周美君 饰），一个叫张新新（蒋欣悦 饰），那个男人是他们的“干爹”。东窗事发之后，小文的母亲报警并找到了律师郝洁（史可 饰），希望法律能够还他们一个公道。然而事与愿违，证据的缺乏让嫌疑人迟迟不能定罪，而最最关键的证据，正掌握在小米的手中。
回复 :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.

回复 :《爱德华·蒙克》（Edvard Munch，1863年12月12日—1944年1月23日），挪威表现主义画家和版画家。蒙克作品的强烈精神和感情，对心理苦闷的强烈的、呼唤式的处理手法对20世纪初德国表现主义的成长起了主要的影响。他的作品“呐喊”（挪威语Skr ik，也译作《尖叫》，作于1893年）被视为后工业现代化的极度痛苦之象征。这部传记影片大致遵循了1884年到1894年的时间顺序，爱德华·蒙克开始表现主义创作并且成为欧洲北部最具有争议、最多诽谤的画家。影片同时还回溯到在他五岁的时候，母亲死于肺病，其姐姐的死亡以及他自己在13岁的时候因为肺部疾病差点丧命。影片还回顾了，蒙克短暂的爱情以及他在挪威首都和德国柏林参与的一些政治活动。花絮：彼得·沃特金（Peter Watkins）1974年执导的这部影片记录了挪威表现主义画家爱华德·蒙克的一生，被英格玛·伯格曼评价为“天才之作”。这部影片被认为是表现艺术创作过程的最佳作品之一，它不仅聚焦于蒙克早期循规蹈矩的岁月，还深刻地展现了情感、政治和社会的剧变对他的艺术创作产生的影响。MoC这次发行的是原始的 211分钟电视版本，这也是本片地位和评价最高的一个版本。依彼得·沃特金斯所言，这是他最具个人风格的一部影片。当他被蒙克的画作触动之后，花了三年的时间来说服挪威电视台拍摄这部影片。影片1976年3月在英国BBC电视台播放之后得到评论界的广泛褒扬。《时代》杂志在评论中用到了“催眠”一词，的确，Watkins就像催眠大师一样将观众拖进了1884年的挪威。这部传记影片大致遵循了1884年到1894年的时间顺序，爱德华•蒙克开始表现主义创作并且成为欧洲北部最具争议性、得到最多诽谤的画家。影片回溯了在他五岁的时候母亲死于肺病、其姐姐的死亡以及他自己在13岁的时候也因为肺部疾病差点丧命的经历。影片还回顾了蒙克短暂的爱情以及他在挪威首都和德国柏林参与的一些政治活动。
