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.
Dual & Duel～最后的决斗如同等最后一只靴子落地，让人辗转反侧😂
看简介以为是动作片 看了才知道是荒诞喜剧
一堆人在那瞎分析，对电影过度解读。很明显克隆活了下来。本体的转变过于生硬，导演故意制造悬念，实则不和逻辑
还挺喜欢这个片子的，在一个荒诞的设定下，放大了很多现实中的荒诞。 现代科幻电影中，越来越写实，已经2022年，汽车并没有飞上天，而我们也没有经历以前想象中理想的未来。 科技带来的人与人之间冷漠、被媒体摧毁的亲情和有爱、商业无孔不入地渗透，还有滑稽的社会法则…… 本体想通过决斗彻底开启新的人生，而复制体也因厌倦本体的人生，选择进一步替代本体。
概念有趣，只是除了主角的大部分角色的变化线条都毫无弧度，一而再再而三地直接90度转变有点让人无语
看到是自卫的艺术导演新电影，毫不犹豫就看了。非常喜欢这种先进行一个非常奇怪荒诞的设定然后里面所有人都一本正经的奇奇怪怪。最后不明着表现出来让观众自己理解到底是谁活了下来。
女人苦，下水道里遇老鼠
是小粉吉兰的健身操
克隆人完全成了原来的她，忍受着原来的一切。
我还挺喜欢这个电影的。当一个更讨喜的克隆人在自己的生活中取代了自己原本的地位，自己、家人、爱人，和这个克隆人会做何抉择。
影片给我的触动是，个体是环境经历所塑造的，哪怕基因相同，因为不同的经历而成为不同的人。所以接受命运的给予就是最好的选择，哪怕是不好的经历也成为了你的一部分，不可分割。另一点感悟是，他人其实不在意你的好坏，在乎的是你让他们是否感觉舒服。
主要突出复制人的恶和女主的傻白
Dual & Duel～最后的决斗如同等最后一只靴子落地，让人辗转反侧😂
故事一气呵成，看似简单易懂，背后的寓意和深度很多层面因人而异…细思极恐～
女主有点像绯红女巫奥妹。由于看之前看了眼豆瓣，剧透害死人
知难而上的逆行
救……Aaron比女主矮，我看的真的很想笑……
①如果复制体活下来，她哭是因为，自己必须隐藏人格，完完全全活成了本体。
女主大特写演技真的6，一人分式两角。不过明明一个短片的剧情拍成电影倒确实有点不必了
3.4/10 这个极具创意力与新意的设定, 多加活用可以制造一部阴森可怖的惊悚类电影, 也可以制造一部质问人性的思辩类电影,可惜本片却不属于其中任何一种。 本片不断呈现故事设定为角色所带来的危害, 却在呈现过程中丢失对原因的描绘。 本片花费大量时间叙述角色如何克服危机, 却逐渐忘记故事的核心与影片的风格。 道具的使用, 人物的刻画, 也不够优秀。 这样一部仅仅依靠设定与概念支撑的影片, 即使最终以别样的方式作结, 依旧无法改变剧本糟糕的事实。
