视频简介
英国人Marc Singer的黑白纪录片，拍了一群住在纽约地下的流浪汉的生活，很容易让人联想到杜海滨的《铁路沿线》，王兵的《铁西区》，还有Edet Belzberg的Children Underground（2001年，反映罗马尼亚街头儿童的生存状态）。Dark Days 被洛杉矶影评人协会评为2000年最佳纪录片，并斩获当年圣丹斯的观众最喜爱影片奖，自由表达奖，最佳摄影奖。这最后一个奖得的有点嘲讽意味，Mark Singer那时候根本不懂摄影术。从英国来到曼哈顿，他留意到了一群无家可归者，出没在城市的垃圾场和街角，晚上走下地道，在地下铁道周围巨大的荒凉中生活。他跟着这群人转悠了五年半，拍了这部电影。给他做录音、灯光、器材的人就是这些流浪汉。当然，少不了可爱的大资本家的帮助：柯达公司给他全程提供胶片，Cinevision拿一个摄像机给他白用了两年半。...。三名职业罪犯发现自己被困在仓库里，警方步步逼近，更糟糕的威胁还在里面等着他们，一只近乎不可阻挡的猛犬。。Susanne Wallner returns to the ruins of Berlin from a Concentration Camp after WW2 to discover that someone else lives in her apartment: Dr. Hans Mertens, the war made him depressive and he drinks a lot of alcohol. Susanne asks him to go but he doesn't want to, so they share Susanne's apartment and even discover their sympathy and then their love for each other. That encourages him a little, of course. But then he hears that Ferdinand Brückner is still alive and also lives in Berlin. Brückner was his Captain during WW2, he gave the order to kill more than 100 innocent people, many children and women among them, on Christmas 1942 in Poland. Summary written by Cinemator。
