Wars in Yugoslavia - Slovenian documentary about the wars in Yugoslavia 1991 - 1999 Douban
Vojko Bostjancic
This is a two part Slovenian documentary on the Yugoslav Wars 1991-1999. It uses extensive archive footage from Slovenian terrestrial TV. Having watched every documentary I can find on this subject I can say that much of the footage contained in this documentary is unique to it, at least from a Western European audience's standpoint. As such this is an excellent documentary for those with an interest in the fall of Yugoslavia, or those looking for an account of the wars from a Slovenian perspective. As this is a war documentary be prepared for some violent/disturbing scenes. Above all of the other documentaries covering the Yugoslav wars I think that this one has some particularly gruesome images, corpses with gunshot wounds to the head, etc. The usual war footage I see on satellite TV news, rarely if ever shows such things, or when they are shown this is done so quickly, this is not the case here. I found that this does two things, firstly it hammers home the brutality of war. Secondly it illustrates the 'glossing over' of the reality of war by much of the global (or at least Western, from my own experience) media, where scenes of intense, real life violence are perhaps too difficult to swallow with an evening meal. That said, please note that this documentary is almost two hours long and these violent scenes only take up small parts of it.

The early films of Wim Wenders are now regarded as landmarks of European film. Alice in the Cities, Wrong Move and Kings of the Road became foundations of the German New Wave and cemented the reputation of their director. In One Who Set Forth: Wim Wenders' Early Years Marcel Wehn explores the background to these films. Through personal recollection and rare home movie footage, it documents the director's early life, from experiments with his first camera, via his deviation from a career in medicine in favour of art and film, through to international recognition for the Road Trilogy. Central to these were themes that became cornerstones of all his work: national identity, the importance of personal relationships and the allure of the road. With contributions from the director and the many collaborators who helped define his vision, One Who Set Forth is a compelling account of Wim Wenders' life and work.

Frank Lloyd Wright The Man Who Built America (2017)
Frank Lloyd Wright The Man Who Built America Douban
Ian Michael Jones actor: Jonathan Adams
other title: 弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特:建筑美国之人
Frank Lloyd Wright is America's greatest-ever architect. However, few people know about the Welsh roots that shaped his life and world-famous buildings. Now, leading Welsh architect Jonathan Adams sets off across America to explore Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpieces for himself. Along the way, he uncovers the tempestuous life story of the man behind them and the significance of his radical family background. In a career spanning seven decades, Frank Lloyd Wright built over 500 buildings, and changed the face of modern architecture: Fallingwater, the house over the waterfall, has been called the greatest house of the 20th century; the spiralling Guggenheim Museum in New York reinvented the art museum; the concrete Unity Temple was the first truly modern building in the world. But the underlying philosophy that links all Wright's buildings is as important as anything he built. Those ideas were rooted in the Unitarian religion of Frank Lloyd Wright's mother. Anna Lloyd Jones was born and raised near Llandysul in west Wales and migrated to America with her family in 1844, most likely to escape religious persecution. Her son, Frank, was raised in a Unitarian community in Wisconsin, a small piece of Wales in America. The values he absorbed there were based on the sanctity of nature, the importance of hard work, and the need to question convention and defy it where necessary. Wright's architecture was shaped by, and expressed, these beliefs. Frank Lloyd Wright set out to create a new American architecture for a new country. He built his own lifelong home in the valley he was raised in, and he named it after an ancient Welsh bard called Taliesin. It was the scene of many adventures - and a horrific crime. In 1914, a servant at Taliesin ran amok and killed seven people including Wright's partner, Mamah Cheney, and her two young children. Wright rebuilt his home and went on to marry a Montenegrin woman, Olgivanna Milanoff, some 30 years younger than him. It was Olgivanna who struck upon the idea that saved Wright's career after the Wall Street Crash and personal scandal laid it low. She decided that her husband should take on apprentices and that the apprentices should pay for the privilege. The Taliesin Fellowship had a hands-on approach, with apprentices often building extensions to Wright's own houses, labouring and cooking for him. Somehow it worked, lasting for decades and nurturing hundreds of young talents. Frank Lloyd Wright died in 1959 aged 91 while working on his final masterpiece, New York's incomparable Guggenheim Museum. He had been born in the wake of the American civil war, the son of a pioneer, and died a television celebrity, in the space age. He is buried in the shadow of Taliesin, alongside his Welsh ancestors. A 150 years after his birth, Jonathan Adams argues that Frank Lloyd Wright is now a vitally important figure who can teach us how to build for a better world. Wright believed in what he called organic architecture; buildings that grace the landscape, express an idea of how to live and respond to individual needs. This bespoke approach - a philosophy, not a style - puts him at the heart of modern architectural thinking.

“The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975,” among other things an extraordinary feat of editing and archival research, takes up a familiar period in American history from a fresh and fascinating angle. In the late 1960s and early ’70s, Swedish television journalists traveled to the United States with the intention of “showing the country as it really is.” Some of the images and interviews they collected have been assembled by Goran Hugo Olsson into a roughly chronological collage that restores a complex human dimension to the racial history of the era.

other title: 自我的世纪
本系列探讨弗洛伊德精神分析学说对20世纪的巨大影响。 美国特纳出版公司最近出版的《20世纪人类全纪录》,把1900年西格蒙特·弗洛伊德《梦的释义》的出版作为20世纪的开端。这决不是别出心裁,而是把精神分析理论的问世当作一个划时代的标志,从此人类对自身的探索进入了一个新阶段,所以有些西方学者把20世纪称之为"精神分析的世纪".《梦的释义》出版100年来,人们对精神分析学说毁誉参半,研究弗洛伊德的着作就达几千部,特别是许多思想大师都对弗洛伊德做出了评价,这就使人们常常戴着大师们的眼镜去看待弗洛伊德,由此产生了一些"错误认同".正如当代意大利哲学家恩贝托·埃柯(UmbereoEco)所说,马可波罗在爪哇把犀牛认作独角兽,这种错误认同产生的原因在于"他正是他的"背景书籍"的牺牲品。"①经过100年的洗礼,弗洛伊德的思想价值不但没有减弱反而增强了。因此要摆脱以往人们对弗洛伊德的错误认同,强调个人对弗洛伊德原着的特殊理解,并把这种理解与当代学术界的研究成果结合起来是十分必要的。首先,弗洛伊德不仅是一个精神病专家,更重要的是,他作为一个人文科学思想家在历史上留下了宝贵的精神财富。 弗洛伊德从人类心理冲突的角度去关照潜意识的产生与作用。因此,他的发现不仅意味着医学的进步,还打破了人类思想与生活中的许多假象,扩展了人类对精神生活的感知,并以不能再视而不见的事实描述出潜意识这种复杂而真实的人文现象。他对梦的层层揭示触及了人类精神世界最难以接近的部分。他对导致人的梦境的潜意识的分析引导着人类更透彻地了解了自己——20世纪达利的绘画、劳伦斯的小说、希区柯克的电影、马勒的音乐,弗洛伊德对生命潜意识的透视在几乎所有人文领域里都留下了深刻的印记。 当弗洛伊德80岁诞辰来临之际,全世界200多位科学艺术家致信祝贺,他们说:“如果世间有什么行动可以被永远铭记的话,那就是对人类心灵的洞察。” 弗洛伊德,“有史以来第一位正视人类心灵问题的人”。
