休斯敦国际电影节简介
由常与罗根合作的摄影师Brandon Trost执导，改编自刊登于2013年《纽约客》的中篇小说《Sell Out》，原作者Simon Rich写剧本。罗根一人分饰两角，之一是1920年代移民到美国的劳工Herschel Greenbaum，他不慎跌进了一缸泡菜，被腌了一百年，保持了完美的形态。百年后的如今，Greenbaum在纽约布鲁克林醒来，身体没有丝毫苍老。他去寻找自己现在的家人，却发现只有曾孙Ben Greenbaum(也是罗根出演)尚存。Ben是个性格温和的程序猿，Herschel完全无法理解他。。该剧由圣丹斯频道和BBC2联合出品，将于7月中旬开机拍摄，2014年播出。Maggie Gyllenhaal担任主演。 该剧描述了一个快节奏的、迷宫般复杂的国际政治惊悚故事。主人公Nessa Stein的父亲是个支持犹太复国运动的武器生产商，在Nessa和兄弟年幼的时候遭人暗杀。Nessa长大后继承了父亲的公司并将其"发扬光大"——她现在的主业不再是生产和销售武器，而是在以色列和约旦河西岸地区架设高科技数据网络。由于她多年来坚持促成以色列人和巴勒斯坦人的和解，因此被选入以色列议会，一个国际政治大漩涡由此形成。据称该剧的故事地点包括英国、中东地区和以色列，全都会实景拍摄。。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.。
