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.
直男癌之刻骨桃花源。。。可怜了那片竹林呗泡沫所覆盖呀
贯彻始终的物哀
85 生日觀影，很巧的是正好是劍心斬殺雪代巴的日子。稍晚些時候得知的一些事情，讓我知道或許總該是時候斬斷過去了。
果然还得是有血腥气，才会让动作戏更吸引人。情感浓度没有OVA好，前半程都挺不错的，剑心怎么遇见巴，俩人在客栈里来来回回的试探和若即若离的关系。但是到了乡下反而生出一种完成拍摄任务的感觉，影调不再那么暧昧了。
还原度很高，但舍弃岩崎琢的BGM等于丢弃追忆篇的灵魂
巴的眼神一点没有透露出哀伤，反而因为话多而与人设相悖。反倒是冲田总司的肺结核过于真实。
《人誅篇》帶給我的失望，《追憶篇》都補償回來了，相較於前者失控的群戲和剪輯，這一部專注於塑造劍心和巴，即便女間諜愛上仇人的戲碼不新鮮了，也拍得能夠讓人忘記薰才是劍心的最後歸宿，再加上對新舊交替亂世的刻畫和乾淨利落的動作戲呈現，明明是真正意義上的系列開篇卻異常悲壯，為系列畫下了一個完美的句號。無論《人誅篇》怎麼拖系列後腿，《浪客劍心》五部曲都是日本真人漫改的巔峰，而且目前看來連潛在的挑戰者都沒有。
先看追忆再看最终章，整个情绪更顺，虽然是大家最爱的一个篇章，个人不是很喜欢，就挺普通的，甚至有点过誉。特别是一群评论在说太虐了太刀了，大可不必….
其实作为漫改已经很好了，但千不该万不该，它不该让我在想打五星的情况下点进原作，所以我要怒扣一颗！
1.捏妈妈的，斋藤直到结尾也没说“恶即斩”，可恶的编剧，让他说一句是会死吗？2.斋藤和绯村，有关他们的战斗总是会被中止，从来没分出过胜负3.每部的片尾曲都不一样
追忆前传，动作够帅的，严肃些，不那么中二，但同样闷。★★★/6.7
可能是看过final再看的这个，觉得尚可，但仔细回忆下之前的三部曲明显觉得又略差一些，村花演技没问题但感觉没有巴霜中白梅香的气质，砂糖的演绎也老气了些，桂的诠释反倒是这部的亮点，打戏比感觉少了，文戏又没特出彩，只能算是意料之中的呈现，不功不过吧，4星
剧情非常简单？因为女人少年软弱了又振作了？！全片可以说就是一个女人带来的改变。村姑发挥余地太小。画面没得说，打斗过瘾，唯美也不错。岛国就是这样守护啊，爱人啊什么的路子……都是为了各自为了生存罢了，哪有那么多伟光正。
动作戏有点少，而且和总司那场估计期待值太高了看的不是特别过瘾。不过整体动作戏还是设计的不错的。光注意最终章了没注意回忆篇，所以新选组的出现也算意外之喜了，没想到还有池田屋的戏。不过以后前传能不能先拍？虽然佐藤很小只，现在这样叫少年也有点突兀了。又一次激起看原著的心！
一个剑客的传奇从此开启。把这追忆作为最终篇还是让人意味深长。
腥风血雨成绝响
一笔恨，血洗黑暗旧时代；
我不知道有谁和我一样，在看这部电影的约20年前，看了《追忆篇》动画电影版。至今，我都觉得那部动漫电影无论剧情、画面、配乐都登峰造极。如今，看到真人版电影，免不了跟当年的动画电影比较。剧情高度还原，两位主角演技可圈可点。格斗场面令人震撼。但我标注的这部五星真人电影也不是没有缺点。最大的缺点是：配乐跟动画电影相比，简直弱爆。更让我不解的，是片尾竟是一首英文歌曲。这是为了打入国际市场的操作吗？遗憾。
先看的这一部，抛掉情怀，只是一个简单的“爱上杀未婚夫的仇人”这个故事脉络，人物刻画是很成功，但是太冗长了，繁琐，再加上各种闪回，让人感觉乏味，一开始就猜到结尾的故事，罪——赎罪，救赎，几乎无脑的热血执行杀人命令（总带着理想般的狂热），似乎是日本电影很爱展现的主题。三星
只能再次感叹，还是追忆篇的故事最好看，还有佐藤健选的太好了。
