The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.

3.5/5.0 复古满满的千禧年青春片 对比风头过盛的LGBT正确 蛮有诚意的
人畜无害很俗套没啥野心但也挺轻松的大数据电影，一个问题在于，开头如何造成女主瘫痪的原因似乎没有点明，而这个似乎不是能够直接忽视的动机。不过，看Rebel Wilson都瘦出锁骨了，太扎心了，而我看本片的此刻仍在喝奶茶……
好old school啊 电影也兴千禧辣妹了吗 怀念那个小时候看到这种电影不会打低分的自己:)
从一个运动员的身体到一个患病变胖的身体，从不知道要干什么打拳就行的心态到想成为演员，最后成为神父的心态。故事就是简单叙事，没有感受到什么。
船长确实有失误的地方，比如为啥就那么急不能留个字条呢，艰苦的旅行和生活身边有个好心靠谱的伙伴是多么重要，弑君者的演员确实很帅，但故事不够有冲突性和绝望感。
男主我本来也不大喜欢，拳击和宗教部分都没啥兴趣。
曾经在某个无法坚持的日子里，求助过宗教的力量，直到某一天我跪拜而起的时候，我突然获得了一种无法言喻的平静力量，这是所有狂妄无知无神论的人，无法理解的，所以，我虽然不理解天主教，但我理解那份力量。
他爹穿西服好帅，原来是帅哥变老了，看演员表研究了半天才认出来😅
2个人为了探明祖国的领地范围，不远千里跋涉，只为了真相
我们来到这个世界，不停的纷争与对抗，最终对抗的还是自己，在不停的寻找内心与灵魂的真谛。
这种类型的美式轻松喜剧还是挺受用的。谁不想回到高中呢，哪怕已经是发福不再好看的中年妇女了，又有谁高中时候不想成为人见人爱的cool kid然后做一些中二的梦又在中年回望时带着点怀念去鄙夷。想起我也错过了国内的高中毕业典礼，但是我班级的同学知道我回来的日子特地邀请我重新穿上校服回到校园拍了毕业照，真是美丽的十八岁。
我跟Father Stu一样，冲着女主来的，那个演玛利亚的也好看，关注了！没想到梅尔吉布森也在里面，他仿佛还是我最爱的那个《致命武器》里的Riggs,在房车里握着酒瓶颓废醒来，突然感觉这片可以做《致命武器5》,Riggs跟老婆生了两个娃，结果夭折一个，另一个也很操蛋。结尾曲蛮好听，有个像《好莱坞往事》桥段一样的彩蛋
马克是这几年还比较喜欢的演员，剥离了宗教的外衣其实作为一个普通人的励志片还是不错的。不是所有电影都要有跌宕的情节，静下来看个故事
女主真的很坚强。
虽然在细节描述，以及困境的渲染方面还是稍显欠缺。但是，仍然足够激发每个观众对生命意义的思索。在那种无尽的孤独与迷茫之中，坚持活着是需要十足的勇气和精神力量。
冗长且无聊 好几次都要看睡着了 不过演员演技还可以
emo时刻可以选择小鸡电影来治愈，所以希望无论多“烂” 也有chick film的存在。
知名反猶分子參演，果然是個天主教福音電影。但是對於一直想要做神職人員的我來說也算有啟示。或者有一天我可以傳福音呢，還是要好好讀經。
又是一部北欧题材的影片，又是阴郁压抑的氛围。根据真实故事改编的电影，虽然节奏慢，但是还看得下去，在面临绝境的时候，人的求生欲望，以及友情，爱情对人意志的支撑都很让人动容。但是总感觉对极地生活的艰辛描述得不够，只有一头北极熊光顾，再就是男主生病产生了强烈幻觉，跟荒野猎人比还是差点意思。
