燕清秋康复登台以后，寂静再也没有唱过那出戏，寂静不是因为不敢，而是不愿意再触及那段惊悚血色的回忆。苏月中枪以后，因为子弹偏离心脏半寸，而逃过了一劫。经过法庭审判，苏月被判处终身监禁。半年之后，北平沦陷，大牢也在炮火中塌陷，狱师在收尸的时候，发现苏月已经不知了去向。
回复 :在一个滂沱大雨的夜晚，辣手干探Chul-jung在监视行动中突然人有三急，却找不到「解决」的地方。当他躲在灯柱完成「解决」后，一个穿著雨衣的神秘男人与他擦身而过。Chul-jung认为此人形迹可疑，上前查问，突然间神秘男子手中的利刀一闪而过，Chul-jung眼角流血，神秘男人亦瞬即不见了踪影。一星期后，Chul-jung驻守的地区发生了一宗凶杀案。死者是一对年老的夫妇，警方发现他们是被捅多刀致死的，现场亦留下了行凶的凶器。可是，大家对这宗案件仍毫无头绪。Chul-jung仔细观察尸体，突然想起当晚曾在雨中被神秘男人击倒的事，并认得凶器和那个男人手持的刀一样。Chul-jung因此锁定了那个男人便是杀人凶手。经过连番调查，Chul-jung直觉认为投资公司顾问Kyu-hwan的嫌疑最大，可是却苦无证据。Chul-jung利用了自己的职权，不顾一切的派员跟踪Kyu-hwan，甚至不惜任何代价，都要令Kyu-hwan露出马脚，找到杀人的证据。然而，Kyu-hwan亦并非等闲之辈，他利用了自己的权势，令Chul-jung被降职，以求令Chul-jung停止对自己的滋扰。就在这时，另一宗谋杀案又发生了，手法跟第一宗亦一模一样……全片充满北野武式的暴力影像与黑色幽默，血液喷涌的枪伤、利刃狂插的杀人场景，在怵目惊心之余，也质疑所谓公理正义的真谛。
回复 :2003年文德斯参加了马丁斯科塞斯Martin Scorsese发起的为蓝调音乐寻根的Mini影集《The Blues》，拍摄了其中名为《一个人的灵魂》（The Soul of a Man）的一集。（参与这个影集的还有克林特 伊斯特伍德（《杀无赦》）和迈克 菲吉斯（Mike Figgis，《远离赌城》）等人）Martin Scorsese本人导的单元Feel Like Going Home结构松散，缺乏重心（从美国跳到西非，又只挑一两个乐手作重点，蜻蜓点水般轻轻略过），一看就知道是个音乐外行人，也难怪有些乐迷要失望不已，倒是德国大导演文德斯（巴黎德州，柏林苍穹下，直到世界末日），不愧是个道地的音乐喜好者，他所导演的The Soul of a Man，具有下列三大特色：1. 文德斯选择了自己最喜爱的三位布鲁斯艺术家斯基普·詹姆斯、布兰德·威利·约翰逊和J.B.雷诺瓦做为影片的主角，他带着虔诚与朝圣的心理，用剧情片的模式讲述了这三位音乐家的真实故事。1). Willie Johnson（应该是纪录片）2). Skip James（以戏剧方式重现其一生）3). J. B. Renoir（影片来源：主要参照一对夫妇的私藏纪录片，并穿插了部分德国六零年代的摇滚场景，与导演个人的生活记忆。）2. 刻意用二零年代的老摄影机，透过重现场景，重新演戏（re-enactment）的方式，将影像与音乐作一个巧妙的连结，其效果不亚于任何一部优秀的MTV。3. 文德斯参考了大量的历史资料，请来与这三位音乐家同时代的或者具有影响力的像Lou Reed、克里斯·托马斯·金、尼克·凯夫Nick Cave 、the Bad Seeds、詹姆斯·布拉德·乌尔姆JamesBlood Ulmer、Lucinda Williams等近二十七位美国布鲁斯音乐人，请他们重新演唱这三位音乐家的经典布鲁斯歌曲，再穿插以当年历史新闻镜头，让观众在黑白影像中重新领略到布鲁斯音乐的魅力，体味到文德斯对音乐乃至人生的理解与感悟这部片子前后的贯穿力强（以美国NASA宇宙飞船在船上放蓝调唱片藉以和外星人沟通为开场白，片末则出现了太空与Willie Johnson脸庞的迭影，颇有深意），凝聚性也高，充分显现温德斯对于音乐的投入，对于音乐--影像之间的对话与相扣，有非常好的掌握能力，值得推荐给大家看。

回复 :In the time of Counter-Reformation, a miller and his son come under investigation by a priest of the Inquisition, when rumors spread that their prosperity comes from working with the Devil.The Devil's Trap is a film directed by František Vlá?il, based on a novel by Alfréd Technik, adapted by František A. Dvorák and Miloš Kratochvíl. It was the first of three historical dramas that Vlá?il made during the Czech New Wave (technically he isn't really a part of the New Wave, however these films were made during the same era of artistic freedom), preceding his more well known Marketa Lazarová (1967) and Valley of the Bees (1968).Set in the late 16th Century during the Catholic Reformation, in the Moravian Karst, situated in what is now the Eastern Czech Republic, it tells the tale of a miller (Vítezslav Vejrazka), and his son Jan (Vít Olmer), who come under suspicion and are investigated by a Jesuit priest of the Inquisition (Miroslav Macháchek), when rumors of witchcraft are spread by the local regent (Cestmír Randa), who is jealous of the miller's prosperity and degree of respect among the local populace.As expected from Vlá?il, this film is a stunning experience all the way through. From the opening shot, an ominous manipulation of perspective with a close up of a mangled figure of Christ dominating the foreground against a tiny figure in black walking along the horizon, to the breathtaking confrontational finale inside the vast stalactite filled Karst caverns, it is a wonderful display of visual mastery.Maybe not quite as impressive as Marketa Lazarová, but still full of astonishing imagery. As seen from unique angles and distinct points of view which highlight the director's remarkable sense of awareness of framing, motion, and positioning on the emotional and dramatic tone of the scene. The most memorable being a repeated shot where the camera is suspended and launched with speed through the air towards the miller's door.The story here is a simple one and I would say more accessible than his later works. With a conventional structure emphasized as much by its plot and characters, than by its expressionistic cinematography or authentic historical detail. The events play out without much surprise, and there is a strong underlying, almost supernatural, mysterious aspect that is left unresolved, in fact barely explored, which is slightly disappointing, but only because it's so fascinating that I wish there was more.Acting is great all around. Particularly the villains: Miroslav Macháchek as the priest, casting a sinister and imposing shadow wherever he goes, and Cestmír Randa as the weasel like regent behind all the persecution. While Vít Olmer brings a charismatic leading man presence in his role as the miller's son Jan, in love with the lovely orphan girl Martina (Karla Chadimová), who becomes a dangerous object of rivalry between Jan and other young men of the village.The film also features the evocative music of Zden?k Liška (perhaps the most prolific composer of the Czech New Wave). In this his second of eleven collaborations with Vlá?il, his compositions are used sparingly, but to great effect, complimenting but never overpowering a scene. The best example of which can be heard in an amazingly shot celebration and dance sequence at the end of the second act.The Devil's Trap might not be a masterpiece, but it is still a strong effort, with a fascinating straightforward story and a glorious historical setting captured beautifully by Vlá?il's unmistakable visual prowess. A fine work that would also be the perfect starter plate to prepare yourself for the challenging feast of Marketa Lazarová or The Valley of the Bees. It even has an easy to digest running time. It's therefore puzzling why this gem remains largely overlooked and ignored.
