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.
好看又不好看。
还行。真实故事改编得挺好的，虽然无法动容~
煽情的地方是真煽情，特别是妈妈帮阿伟向阿娇表白之后那一段，可以说是全片高光了。
最近怎么看的好几部电影都…很别扭的观影体验，就是那种，导演把镜头语言和思想硬塞到我脑里，说，看我是不是很厉害… 而且窦尧这演技我总觉得跟场景格格不入而且很容易用力过度，新一代的黄教主？
搁五六年前，这种反转再反转，悬疑，密闭空间，小成本黑色幽默，我还觉得新鲜，可是看多了，就真不新鲜了，范伟、窦骁表现是不错，其他演员也很卖力，但掩盖不了剧情硬伤，逻辑也站不住脚，明显一群老戏骨捧刘姓导演，我记得分数会往下掉，个人打6.5分，算给多啦。
开始还觉得好玩，看到一半就不能忍了。这为反转而反转的剧情是把观众当傻子么？
范伟和窦骁还挺有cp感，尤其是每次时间定格的时候。但看完之后感觉惊喜度还是不够大。有些地方的逻辑感觉不太顺，不知道是我的问题还是电影的问题。
没想到会有拍广告与训练的分歧..吴君如贡献了极为精彩的表演，苏桦伟不同时期的演员表演都很出色。但影片中仍存在不少遗憾，例如“同工同酬”议题没有下文，被“忽视”的弟弟内心的转变也较为突兀，配乐也过多过满。.总的来说全片总体很打动人，尤其是残奥会第一次夺金的场景，让人随之激动，还是一部很值得一看的电影
妈妈和儿子的演技都好好，对手戏很感人，母爱伟大而无私。
看到最后发现是真人世纪改编，讲述了残疾运动员的不容易，以及社会对他们的不公，他们一生下来就被关上了正常的大门，还能如此努力，拼搏，不是应该更加得到社会的关心，关爱吗？正能量电影，久违的泪水。
值得走进影院观看，强推粤语版！！
有点像套娃，一环套一环，每一环都有反转，有些情节挺搞笑的，谢谢不散观影！ps：影院的椅子不太好睡。
我遗憾自己看的居然是普通话版，难怪总有点出戏。
就各种狰狞面部大特写，高速镜头尴尬体操动作，轮着圈卖关子，反转反转再反转，大音量配乐轰炸，导演像贴着你的耳朵喊，意外吗，意外吗，大哥你意外吗，哈哈哈我都觉得好意外啊。我乏力地醒过来，看着低配的疯狂石头和滑稽戏一样的低俗小说，脑子里只有四个字，没有必要。
怎么说呢，今天北京残奥会开幕式，六公主来放这部片子，当然要给六公主面子啦～
短时间封闭空间内连环扣式的黑色幽默喜剧，也不是没硬伤，但总体都套上了，还是新导演首作的话，确实不输当年宁浩《疯狂的石头》。
虽然有些不合理的地方，但我还挺喜欢这个故事，黑色幽默做得不错，部分场景氛围也不错，要是能做点减法，再磨磨台词，利索一点就更好了，没能很好利用空间有点遗憾
很好的故事，剧本比较粗糙，逻辑性差，为了反转而反转，拖沓，前后内容割裂，窦骁的角色是赌王闺女花赌资买的吧，李春来加一星
没有足够优秀的剧本就别再走盖里奇和宁浩的老路了，逻辑都没法自圆其说，美术风格是脏乱风，但并不黑色幽默，使劲儿堆砌反转也没用 ，只能说毫无惊喜，拐卖儿童那段太突兀了，想深刻又不往深入讲，弄了个半吊子。
“你残疾是天生的，没人会怪你，但会怪妈妈”母亲就是那个为你承受一切的人，真人的励志故事更打动人心
