Volker Schlöndorff transposes Bertolt Brecht’s late-expressionist work to latter-day 1969. Poet and anarchist Baal lives in an attic and reads his poems to cab drivers. At first feted and later rejected by bourgeois society, Baal roams through forests and along motorways, greedy for schnapps, cigarettes, women and men: ‘You have to let out the beast, let him out into the sunlight.’ After impregnating a young actress he soon comes to regard her as a millstone round his neck. He stabs a friend to death and dies alone. ‘You are useless, mangy and wild, you beast, you crawl through the lowest boughs of the tree.’
The film takes youthful impetuousness and hatred of oppression as its subject and also ponders the cult of genius and sexual morals. Rainer Werner Fassbinder simultaneously plays both Baal and himself and is surrounded by many actors who were later to perform in his own films. After the film was broadcast on West German television, Brecht’s widow Helene Weigel prohibited any further screenings, arguing that the social circumstances engendering Baal’s rebelliousness had not been adequately explained. 老狼影视免费提供《巴尔》高清中字BD1280在线播放,《巴尔》迅雷资源,《巴尔》国语,粤语版本高清在线观看,《巴尔》完整高清未删减版在线观看。老狼电影网所有迅雷下载资源以及在线观看资源由云端程序自动抓取,如果你喜欢《巴尔》最新一期,欢迎分享《巴尔》给你的好友,本片只做交流学习,请勿用于商业利益行为,请支持《巴尔》正版影片!请下载观看后24小时内删除,感谢支持!
