◎ 简　　介：
看点: 拍摄于越战期间，通过5段不同的故事表达出五位导演对当时政局的看法
第一部分的主题是冷漠，楼下一桩抢劫杀人的案正在进行，楼上所有人都熟视无睹。街边发生一起交通事故，没有任何车停下来救人。直到在警察的帮助下一位司机出现，他理所当然地拒绝，但是迫于无奈只好就范，却于中途逃走，故事原来是这样的。
第二部分是一段行为艺术表演。临死的人进行死前最后的忏悔，很有意思，比现在的好多所谓行为艺术好看多了。
第三部分是帕索里尼的贡献：他的最爱演员Ninetto Davoli漫步在大街上，手握着一大扎纸花去见情人。一路走来充满阳光，这个世界的另一些地方却是另一中摸样。
第四部分是戈达尔的“爱”。有两种含义：政治层面的故事聚焦在古巴，有点自我批评的感觉。
第五部分，大学教室里正在上课，一群自称学生会的人闯了进来，声称要改革对文化的压迫，于是辩论展开。
◎ 关于影片：
意大利/法国1969年五位大师(贝尔托鲁奇、帕索里尼、戈达尔、贝洛奇奥、卡罗里扎尼)联手合导的经典名作，荣获1969年柏林影展提名金熊奖。
导演们的信条，拒绝把电影当作是故事；至少在此说：并不是因为你看多了电影就懂得了“电影”；第七艺术就好比在欧几里德之前的数学；而且导演并没有表示说“新浪潮”就是欧几里德。

Bruno和Aldo是人是很久的朋友。他们之前为了钱而出卖身体。这部故事是说好与坏，爱与暴力。他们发现肢体接触给他们带来一种难以言喻的感觉，不论是打架还是其他的接触。@樱夏枫雪

1963 anthology film by 4 different directors

Documentary footage (from the 1950s) and accompanying commentary to attempt to answer the existential question, Why are our lives characterized by discontent, anguish, and fear? The film is in two completely separate parts, and the directors of these respective sections, left-wing Pier Paolo Pasolini and conservative Giovanni Guareschi, offer the viewer contrasting analyses of and prescriptions for modern society. Part I, by Pasolini, is a denunciation of the offenses of Western culture, particularly those against colonized Africa. It is at the same time a chronicle of the liberation and independence of the former African colonies, portraying these peoples as the new protagonists of the world stage, holding up Marxism as their "salvation", and suggesting that their "innocent ferocity" will be the new religion of the era. Guareschi's part, by contrast, constitutes a defense of Western civilization and a word of hope, couched in traditional Christian terms, for man's future.

本片根据意大利著名导演帕索里尼制作的新闻电影片段整理修复，影片以新闻影像为素材，加入了电影拍摄画面和旁白诗歌，诠释了十九到二十世纪的大量西方历史事件，具有珍贵的政治和人文价值。

Two dramatic stories. In an undetermined past, a young cannibal (who killed his own father) is condemned to be torn to pieces by some wild beasts. In the second story, Julian, the young son of a post-war German industrialist, is on the way to lie down with his farm's pigs, because he doesn't like human relationships.

A man and his son take an allegorical stroll through life with a talking bird that spouts social and political philosophy.

Pier Paolo Pasolini sets out to interview Italians about sex, apparently their least favorite thing to talk about in public: he asks children if they know where do babies come from; asks old and young women if they support gender equality; asks both sexes if a woman's virginity still matters, what do they think of homosexuality, if divorce should be legal, or if they support the recent abolition of brothels. He interviews blue-collar workers, intellectuals, college students, rural farmers, the bourgeoisie, and every other kind of people, painting a vivid portrait of a rapidly-industrializing Italy, hanging between modernity and tradition — toward both of which Pasolini shows equal distrust.

1964 film directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini

Roman police detectives interrogate a series of potential perpetrators in their struggle to determine whom to arrest for the brutal murder of a beautiful prostitute whose body is discovered in a park on the day of a torrential rainstorm. One by one, the prime suspects -- girl-crazy teenager Nino, pickpocket Canticchia, a soldier on leave, a tourist and a pimp -- recount the events of the day to the police, each insisting he is innocent.

1971 film by Pier Paolo Pasolini

Pasolini's documentary is an appeal to UNESCO to save the destruction of a beautiful Yemen's ancient town of Sana'a. The old, fortified city has been inhabited for more than 2500 years and contains a wealth of intact architectural gems. It was declared a World Heritage City by the United Nations in 1984.

1967 film by Pier Paolo Pasolini

The final part of Pasolini's Trilogy of Life series is rich with exotic tales of slaves and kings, potions, betrayals, demons and, most of all, love and lovemaking in all its myriad forms. Mysterious and liberating, this is an exquisitely dreamlike and adult interpretation of the original folk tales.
