David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
不如无主之作，无主之作当中呈现了纳粹遗毒如何在东德这个国家以及哈德里希特这个毫无真正创作能力的视觉艺术家身上得到了延续，法比安则比较保守，前30分钟有一定新意，在快速蒙太奇中混合了分屏、快进和黑白档案镜头，同时穿插廉价的歌舞表演场景，讽刺性十足(左翼享乐青年的无能），但后面逐渐滑落成非常主流的控诉纳粹抹杀理想主义者的俗套片，不过结尾不会游泳的意象非常出色，这也是讽刺魏玛共和国当中逐渐变犬儒的知识分子(主角）丧失了创作能力，还妄图在优雅虚无当中改变社会，但最终被反噬的悲惨命运(频繁拍摄宣传游泳课的海报)
你在柏林听什么歌 跳什么舞
“我热爱生活，但我也逐渐在失去生活”
活着只是侥幸，死亡才是必然。
多少有些觉得这样克拉考尔气质的电影不应该有接近180min的时长，这让开头那种独特的纪录感有些涣散，但转念又想，能够做到完整叙述男主的主线和男二女一甚至开男妓店的女二这几个角色都表达的如此生动，还要把那个山雨欲来的魏玛柏林表现的鲜活，也只有这样的一个篇幅才能承载了，人们普遍的灰暗和挣扎，在各种荒唐的境地里自我麻醉。在我心目中这部和《彼得罗夫的流感》都是去年年度级的作品，而那部入选了奥斯卡的《贝尔法斯特》和这两部杰作相比，简直幼稚可笑。
外行人也看得出来这部影片很特别：运用报纸海报与录像带进行的场景拼接、哥特式的浓妆、裸体的疯女人、自动弹奏的钢琴、两位旁观者(话外音)…我是个老古董，本来以为这样有意为之打破观者观感，呈现碎片化的电影不会是我的审美取向，但是看完后发现这些奇特的元素都还停留在我的脑海中，如陌生化理论所说“延长了审美感受”，也许我该多尝试些新鲜事物。

不管怎样，生活是最有趣的工作
“谁不喜欢和平？但我们这一代只能做出牺牲，我们就是德意志民族的医生，为国家去除生病的毒瘤.......”“为邻居铲除屎，他们还不乐意吗？”围绕最终解决方案讨论的主要是运输和“处理”的经济性，国民会不会反抗，对国内工业技术人才流失是否有影响，混血犹太人如何处理等等来展开。觥筹交错之间，决定了几百万人的生死。
爱极了这种间离感和文学性强的脚本，他游走在声色犬马光怪陆离的魏玛，保持着难得的清醒又孤立于每一个群体和时代。汤姆真的太可爱了德国一美。
“一个当代高学历社畜的消亡史”（到最后，还在期待一个比较美好的结局，大概是有点社畜惜社畜吧～
饱满的拍摄，坚实的构成。“命悬一线”的，青年人们的理想生活和信念被丑恶的政治斗争，战争冲垮、被猝不及防的现实意外打断，追逐理想国度的人们最终只能无力地死于自己的理想，永远到不了的幸福未来QAQ
德国人精细严谨的特点被表现得很好
本片的可怕之处在于将讨论如何杀人这件事搞得如此有仪式感。各方不断地为自身利益博弈，那些我们听起来如此反人道的话在他们口中好像日常聊天那般轻松，几千万人的生命就这样被他们在话里行间给决定了。德国每年都会出一些关于纳粹历史的片子，根本是在于对自身的警醒，而现在的局势已经不仅限于德国，而是全世界全人类，这类影片在时刻提醒我们，它们曾经存在过，且离我们并不遥远
虚无代替了存在，惧怕现在和未来
你穿着旧外套，饿着肚子，但仍然可以挺直腰板。你总被拒之门外，是你自己的问题。
道德上的计算与算术是不同的。
五分钟弃,受不了拿4:3当什么高级比例的装逼派,以及这拍得也太过意识流了,要发梦回家慢慢发,别拍出来.德式摇滚也都挺土的...掉渣那种土
而当友人自杀后，法比安找学院教授对质，教授言不由衷说出——“拉布德为何在政治上如此直言不讳，我们需要新的秩序，事情不能再这样下去了，这种享乐主义......这种后战争时期的混乱必须被终结，凡事都有它的用处，牺牲也是，一切都必须要向好的方向发展”时，事情发展已无可挽回
影片有出色的光影运用。暖光中的人间混乱，暖光中的血影，却让眼睛观感舒适。一对璧人同样蓝色的眼睛，以及他们不易安放的爱情，是沉淀于影片光影缝隙的安宁，也给观影茫然的内心带来有限的安静。
