法国生态电影大导演克劳德·努利德山与玛丽亚·贝兰奴，成年继《小宇宙》之后，成年历经6年的酝酿，于 2004年推出又一力作：《小宇宙 2 基因狂想曲》。影片重现亿万年前混沌乍开、熔浆奔流的壮美气魄。大地冷却、落雨成海，终于在水中孕育出地球最初的生命……昆虫是无语的主角，没有旁白注脚，观众全然用自己的心思与眼耳来解读昆虫的一天。《小宇宙 2 基因狂想曲》的主题是宏观的，它讲的是自然界本身与存在于自然界中的万物，因此，人的元素被置入了——选择非洲老祖父代言，因为非洲是人类发源的摇篮，说的故事也有以口述语言传承文化的意味。《小宇宙2：基因狂想曲》不仅仅是一部纪录片，它还是一部喜剧音乐电影，有刻意安排的情节、演员、也有布景与聚光灯；它希望帮助人们发掘宇宙之美、发掘动物与人类、无生物与生物之间的联贯性。当一切都能被拆解成原子，死亡不过是生命现象的转换：水母优雅地漂至岸边、静静等待生命乾涸；落叶腐果，也都有着孕育新生的使命。而人呢，如同智者所说，“某日，我将回到那个当初生我、造我的世界"。

回复 :1960年捷克卡罗维发利国际电影节最佳导演水晶球奖。Originally titled Seryozha, the Russian A Summer to Remember was co-adapted by Vera Panova from her own short story. War and Peace director Sergei Bondarchuk plays the new stepfather of young Seryozha (Borya Barkhatov). So close do the stepfather and the boy become in the months following their meeting that, when time comes for the boy to move on in life, he refuses to leave his new dad's side. Their summer idyll takes place on a Soviet collective farm, managed by Bondarchuk and depicted by novice filmmakers Georgiy Daneliya and Igor Talankin in the most glowing and apolitical of terms. Though there isn't much to the plot, the film admirably succeeds as a sort of cinematic tone poem.From All Movie Guide: Russian filmmaker Georgi Daneliya ranks among his country's most popular directors of satirical comedies. The Georgia-born Daneliya comes from a distinguished family of film performers; his grandmother, Veriko Andzhaparidze, was a famed Georgian silent film actress, his cousin, Sofiko Chiaureli, is also a major actress, and his mother, Meri Andzhaparidze, spent more than a decade at Mosfilm Studios. However, he first chose to train as an architect (perhaps out of respect for his father, an engineer). Following his graduation in 1955, Daneliya worked only briefly in that field when he decided he'd rather be in films, enrolling in Mosfilm Studios' Directors' Courses in 1958. In 1960, Daneliya co-directed Seryozha/A Summer to Remember with Igor Talankin. Two years later, he made his solo directorial debut, Put K Prichalu/The Way to the Wharf (1962). His 1969 comedy Ne Goryuy!/Don't Worry! successfully blended humor and melancholy, a device that would become Daneliya's trademark. In addition to directing, Daneliya co-authors the scripts for his films and occasionally works on screenplays for other directors. Daneliya has won numerous national and international awards for his work. In 1964, his Ya Shagayu po Moskve/I Walk Around Moscow received an honorable mention at the Cannes Film Festival, while in 1975 Afonya received a special award at the All Union Festival, a major U.S.S.R. event. Daneliya's biggest hit in the U.S.S.R., Mimino (1977), earned the special prize at the Moscow International Film Festival and the U.S.S.R. State Prize. In 1991, Daneliya earned the Nika Award (the Russian equivalent to an Oscar) for Best Screenplay for Pasport (1990).

回复 :KITTY LOVE: AN HOMAGE TO CATS is a one-hour Dutch documentary (in Dutch with English subtitles) narrated by Abatutu, a feline "star" of Dutch stage and screen. Via self congratulatory narration voiced by, well, a human, Abatutu describes his talent and inevitable rise to the top. A news reporter provides some backstory as she interviews the cat's owner, an animal handler who does non-human casting for movies and other entertainments. Between snippets of that constructed narrative are cat home videos, hundreds of clips of cats demonstrating the ability to be endlessly absorbed by the complexity of rolls of yarn, the enduring wetness of water, and the towering terror of little white bunnies.
