人需要一种淡然、朴实，不张扬、不喧嚣、不妖美剧把黑帮美剧推荐。淡名利、淡世绘、淡荣辱、淡诱惑，虽无蝶来，清香依旧。没有傲气，但存傲骨。需要脚踏实地的平实，丰富而不肤浅、恬淡而不聒噪、理性而不盲从。在物欲横流的滚滚红尘中，更需要一份淡泊的心境，谢绝繁华，回归简朴。淡定从容的笑对人生。IntheAlpinevillageofTolzbadinthe1800s,thetownsfolktalkquietlyandrestraintheirmovementslesttheyincuravalanches.Thisatmospherelendsitselftorepressedemotions-shownthroughtheparallelstoriesofbutlerstudentJohannlustingafterhismother(anoldflameofthemysteriousCountKnotkers)andKlara'sattractiontoherfather(wholustsafterhisotherdaughter),leadingtoduelsandsuicidalplungesgalore.AllthisisshotinthestyleofanearlyGermansonalfilm,completewithintertitles,cracklysound-trackand'hand-tinted'coloureffects.-WrittenbyMichaelBrooke
