生死排爆

　　Justine Juel Gillmer(《地球百子》《荒原》)编写剧本，基于哈夫特之子Alan Scott Haft写作的书籍《Harry Haft: Survivor Of Auschwitz, Challenger Of Rocky Marciano》，讲述一个男人在奥斯维辛集中营被迫与狱友进行残酷的角斗，胜利意味着能活着等待另一天的考验，而他击败的76名对手则走上了死亡之路。哈夫特承担了沉重的内疚之情，他尝试通过参加二战后备受瞩目的拳击大赛、与洛基·马西安诺等传奇人物比赛而重新找到活下去的理由，并希望能找到他在战争前爱上的那个女子，她激励了他在纳粹手中活下去的斗志。

　　A most pleasingly atmospheric rendition of the tale, noirishly photographed and moodily set, this is the version which probably would have delighted Conan Doyle the most. There is one important plot change which enables the beautiful Alice Brandt to enjoy both a larger role and a more intriguing part in the proceedings. This change also builds up the parts of Dr Mortimer and Lord Charles, yet at the same time provides a nice introduction to the is-he-sinister or is-he-a-good-guy Barrymore, deftly played here by Fritz Rasp.
　　Despite the sting of its well-developed story, the spellbindingly atmospheric direction and the engrossing performances delivered by the entire cast, many fans may find this version somewhat disappointing. For at least three reasons: As in the novel, the part played in the narrative by Sherlock Holmes, though vital, is minimal. And in this version, not only has no attempt been made to enlarge his role, if anything both writer and director do their best to minimize it. Holmes does not even make his entrance for half-an-hour, and when he does finally appear, he has his back to the camera. It is Fritz Odemar, as Dr Watson, who receives the more favorable camera angles. And there is a purpose in this. It is Watson, not Holmes, who figures as the main protagonist of The Hound of the Baskervilles. For the bulk of the narrative, Holmes disappears. It is Watson and Lord Henry (Peter Voss) who take up the running. The movie is almost over, before Holmes closes in on the villain. And even so, this is not the obsessed, self-important Holmes we are accustomed to see taking charge. Another problem is that the title hound itself does not figure a great deal in the action, a downgrading which will undoubtedly rate as another major disappointment for fans. And finally, it could be argued that the script gives too much attention to Conan Doyle's red herring, the escaped convict, and not enough to the real villain.
　　This said, it must surely be admitted by all, that Odemar's interpretation of Watson—intelligent, charming, level-headed, courageous and resourceful—is much closer to Conan Doyle's conception than either the bungling, inveterately stupid Nigel Bruce or the self-effacing Ian Fleming.
　　One other player deserves special mention: Erich Ponto (Dr Winkel in The Third Man) who seems exactly right for Stapleton. A difficult part, superbly played.

　　《狂奔岁月》（Cwal/ At Full Gallop,1996）是赞努西另一部可圈可点的作品。也许是政治情势的转变，也许是创作者自身年岁的增长所致，这部回顾一九五○年代波兰共党高压统治时代的作品，非但没有想象中的正经八百，反而流露了温馨、童稚的情感，赞努西甚至在电影最后现身说法，除了自承某些情节来自个人亲身经历外，甚至带着演员一块谢幕，幽默得紧。
