Der besondere Film
Die Massen haben sich am Film blindgesehen. Es ist bequem, blind zu sein. Blinden die Augen öffnen zu wollen, bleibt ein quälender und undankbarer Versuch.

(siehe auch: Fahrraddiebe) - DirectorAlfred HitchcockStarsJames StewartJohn DallFarley GrangerTwo men try to convince themselves they've committed the perfect murder by hosting a dinner party after strangling a former classmate to death.Although the film lasts about 80 minutes and is supposed to be in "real time", the time frame it covers is actually longer - a little more than 100 minutes. This is accomplished by speeding up the action: the formal dinner lasts only 20 minutes, the sun sets too quickly and so on. The September 2002 issue of Scientific American contains a complete analysis of this technique (and the effect it has on the viewers, who actually feel as if they watched a 100-minute movie).

In order to win the game there is only one tactic including a system called "Nim Sum". If both players use this tactic perfectly, then the owner of the first move will eventually lose. Due to the same reason, it is always disadvantageous to start the game first.

GIL: A group of people attend a very formal dinner party and at the end of dinner when they try to leave the room, they can’t.
BUNUEL: Why not?
GIL: They just can’t seem to exit the door.
BUNUEL: But why?
GIL: When they’re forced to stay together the veneer of civilization quickly fades away and what you’re left with is who they really are. Animals.
BUNUEL: I don’t get it. Why don’t they just walk out of the room?
GIL: All I’m saying is, just think about it. Maybe when you’re shaving one day, it’ll tickle your fancy.
BUNUEL: But I don’t understand. What’s holding them in the room?

Completely wiped out. To this day, I haven't drummed up the courage to watch it again. Never again did I look into such a deep abyss and rarely have I learned so much.

The first 30 minutes of the film has a background noise with a frequency of 28 Hz (low frequency, almost inaudible), similar to the noise produced by an earthquake. In humans, it causes nausea, sickness and vertigo. It was a cause of people walking out of the theaters during the first part of the film.

This turns out to be a film that teaches you how to watch it. But the film is not content to work this out in a prosaic way, in neatly shaped theatrical scenes. Instead it is one of the most committed examples of the principle “form follows function” that you’ll see, so much so that many viewers will find it impenetrable and intolerable. Malick is the first director to attempt phenomenological ontology on screen. He follows carefully the impossible passion of hermeneutics: to grasp the movement of life itself never as an outside observer (always too late to glimpse the phenomenon), but from within the very movement of life itself. In other words, Malick attempts to allow life to show itself from itself as such. The sheer freedom of it is intoxicating if you meet the film on its own level, and accept that it's unfinished, open-ended, by design, because it's at least partly concerned with the impossibility of imposing meaningful order on experience, whether through religion, mass-produced images and stories, or family lore. There are at least two overt settings that call attention to the idea of life as an incredible simulation. Bale's performance, if you can call it that, is a perfect rendition of a man who has no idea what's going on or what his next move will be. Nobody seems to truly reach him, in the way that we want movie characters, and our own friends, and ourselves to be reached. A hand making handprints in wet beach sand, then a wave comes rolling in and erases them. Everything, everyone, every place, seems disconnected here. Treat the world as it deserves to be treated. There are no principles, only circumstances. We are not meant to accept any moments as edgy, but to laugh at the very idea of "edge." It’s a perfume commercial. It’s a trailer for itself. Plotless. Pointless. Pretentious. Vacuous. Sunlight, water, sex, laughter, sunlight? Think of Michelangelo Antonioni. Or think of the scenes where dogs diving into swimming pools and trying to grasp a floating tennis ball in their jaws. They never succeed. The inability to concentrate, follow through, finish. The whole movie is a collection of ellipses of different sorts, a series of suspended moments, cordoned-off spectacles, fleeting instants that could be beautiful or emptily pretty, meaning-filled or meaningless. The film seems to be fighting a losing battle to make sense of itself, to coalesce into a statement, to not fade away. This feels right. The sun flashes into the camera, blinding us. The soul remembers the beauty it used to know in heaven. Nobody else is making films like this. Not at this level. Why is your new movie at 50% on the Tomatometer, Terrence Malick? Do you know what the Tomatometer is? You probably don’t.
