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.
歌舞太棒了，布景、摄影也一流，两位主角缺少点魅力。
斯皮尔伯格的功力宝刀未老，几处歌舞场景调度，剪辑拍摄都颇显功力。
原本担心歌舞，没想到拉跨的是剧情和主角...配角们都不错
说真的虽然电车男+真爱至上真有让人感动，励志的的地方，但是！明明是猥琐男先骗人的为什么女生最后要这样卑微道歉啊，太假了，现实里根本不会有这样的情节。还有，欧阳万成真的真的不适合做恋爱片的男主和那么漂亮的女主。。还是觉得很违和。在最后的吻戏的地方，忍不住按下暂停想跳过那一趴。。
爱情至上也应该有点基本逻辑吧，被爱情冲昏头脑到可以弑亲的程度，什么价值观啊。
干嘛要用这种方式去翻拍一部60年前的经典电影？
故事是真的狗血，但是别的方面又十分好看，单拎出来几个片段可能比看完全片的感受要好很多。
哈哈哈哈哈天呐夭寿啦，欧阳万成洗脑成功吸血鬼日记女主啦。
电影的部分再做的怎么好，看不到载歌载舞背后的情感支持，也对我无效
……我以为自己什么歌舞片都喜欢，谢谢您，我错了
这竟然exactly是罗密欧与朱丽叶的故事。。。还以为改编了一点，这个故事里爱情overwhelm一切的感觉拍得还是很令人向往，而且他们还去了met cloister！（2021新片色彩都好美啊）
安妮特持续ptsd中，简直是灾难级的歌舞片。怎么这片子还能冲奥…别唱了！别唱了！吵死了！烦死了！难听死了！(捂耳朵)
本该交代清楚的文戏我实在没明白多少，该交代的信息量感觉都在舞戏的歌词里，难道都要靠猜吗
真的是人越老越怀旧，斯皮尔伯格也翻拍起了音乐剧。纽约版帮派争斗背景下的罗密欧与朱丽叶，歌也不好听，男主演技也略油腻，镜头调度几乎是唯一显示导演功力的了。真的是一部脱离时代的平庸之作。
喜欢欧阳万城，演的不错。不容易啊，亚裔普通男性和白人女性的浪漫喜剧电影，也算是创造历史了。
三星半，斯皮尔伯格还是牛逼的，摄影调度美术布光好得绝对享受级的顶流，调色也用偏冷色调和老版区分开来，这片也够难看，剧情叙事和老版基本无差别，连时长都基本一致，宝贝司机在里面也少带了副耳机，总的来说斯皮尔伯格还是得多珍惜生命，在剩余的时光里再拍点科幻或者战争片吧。
合格的圣诞电影。虽然很抱歉现实中会不假思索左滑男主，但营造浪漫的时空，心意的合拍胜过左滑、右滑带来的幻觉。Nina还是有一见惊艳的感觉
男女主都各有缺点和做得不对的地方，表达了建立在谎言上的感情难以维持。剧情主线光看预告就能猜到，很俗套的圣诞爱情。但请了欧阳万成以为会有很多笑点，然而并没有。再就是他的发型是半永久的吗？至少看过四部片他都是这个发型，演员造型应该多变一些
拍还是拍的挺好，只是西区故事它太古典了，虽说加了一些爵士的调调和活泼的演绎，但无论是唱腔和舞台展现还是莎士比亚式的剧情设计，都太古典了，它看起来更像是一个翻新的歌舞片而不是我心目中的音乐剧。但是也许好莱坞时不时的确实需要这个，金球奖三个奖项奥斯卡七个提名在上，老斯受我一拜。
波多黎各版罗密欧与朱丽叶 宁可看印巴宝莱坞翻拍一版
