君王启示录。演员台词功底深厚,画面都是现当代,故事却是16世纪,所谓“Tomorrow and tommorrow and tomorrow”。You had to become as good with antithesis and metaphor as Shakespeare did to ski along that razorblade.What do kings get in return for the burden of responsibility? Just empty royal ceremony.

Everything and Nothing
9.3 (52 ratings) director: Nic Stacey actor: 吉姆·艾尔-哈利利
other title: 万物与虚无
Two-part documentary which deals with two of the deepest questions there are - what is everything, and what is nothing?
In two epic, surreal and mind-expanding films, Professor Jim Al-Khalili searches for an answer to these questions as he explores the true size and shape of the universe and delves into the amazing science behind apparent nothingness.
The first part, Everything, sees Professor Al-Khalili set out to discover what the universe might actually look like. The journey takes him from the distant past to the boundaries of the known universe. Along the way he charts the remarkable stories of the men and women who discovered the truth about the cosmos and investigates how our understanding of space has been shaped by both mathematics and astronomy.
The second part, Nothing, explores science at the very limits of human perception, where we now understand the deepest mysteries of the universe lie. Jim sets out to answer one very simple question - what is nothing? His journey ends with perhaps the most profound insight about reality that humanity has ever made. Everything came from nothing. The quantum world of the super-small shaped the vast universe we inhabit today, and Jim can prove it.
