Disarmingly realistic in its depiction of the realities of frontier life, Heartland is a strong antidote to the cliches of traditional Westerns. This semi-documentary slice of life is based on the diaries of Elmore Randall Stewart about her days on the Wyoming frontier in the early 20th century. It's a strongly feminist statement about a woman raising her small daughter alone and scrapping for a living by working for a shy Scottish rancher. Director Richard Pearce brings an endearing touch to a film that is helped greatly by the dazzling cinematography of Fred Murphy. Conchata Ferrell and Rip Torn star in this small film that substitutes veracity for a high-powered plot. Pearce worked as a cinematographer on Woodstock and other documentaries before making his directorial debut.
Winner of the 1980 Berlin Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival。奥地利诗人英格褒·巴赫曼与瑞士文豪马克斯·弗里施坠入爱河而又分手,为情所伤的她开启了前往沙漠的避世之旅。本片通过对巴赫曼与弗里施、德国作曲家汉斯·亨策、奥地利剧作家阿道夫·欧佩尔之间故事的交叉叙述,刻画了这位诗人从“为情所伤”到“追求意志独立”的女性自我觉醒过程。曾以《德国姐妹》拿下威尼斯电影节金狮奖的导演玛加蕾特·冯·特罗塔再次凭借其对女性人物细致入微的体察,展现了巴赫曼在公共光环背后更为真实多元的形象。入围2023年柏林电影节主竞赛单元。。
