回复 :约翰·威尔逊是一个有才华但很固执的电影导演，他接受了《非洲商人》的拍摄任务，准备去非洲拍外景。但他真正想做的事情是去非洲猎杀大象，他对影片拍摄的众多问题置之不顾，只一心一意地收集着狩猎的武器，甚至把这笔费用打入影片的预算。青年编剧皮特·维里尔跟他一起去到非洲，刚到达乌干达，威尔逊就开始追逐同一旅馆中的一位女客玛格丽特。玛格丽特心怀恶意，不断在威尔逊面前诽谤维里尔反犹太人。两个男人之间展开了一场“心理较量”，威尔逊逼着维里尔克服“懦夫心理”，一起去狩猎大象，而维里尔苦苦哀求他不要杀害珍贵的野生大象。威尔逊不顾其他猎人的阻止想猎杀公象，他带着黑人猎人基维走了。不久他托人带来口信说在基维的村子找到了更好的外景地，要剧组人员赶去。当一切就绪准备开拍时，威尔逊又消失了，他和基维去猎杀公象，使基维死于非命。这时丛林中的发报机发出了“白猎人，黑心肠”的电文，受到惩戒的威尔逊终于安定下来开拍电影。by:m.yakubd.cc

回复 :本片根据美国小说家丹尼斯·勒翰（Dennis Lehane）的同名小说改编。 1954年，联邦警官泰迪（莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥 Leonardo DiCaprio 饰）和搭档查克（马克·鲁弗洛 Mark Ruffalo 饰）乘船来到波士顿附近的禁闭岛精神病犯监狱调查一桩离奇失踪案。手刃亲生骨肉的女犯蕾切尔（艾米莉·莫迪默 Emily Mortimer 饰）从戒备森严的牢室神秘逃脱，藏匿于孤岛深处。泰迪怀疑监狱的主治精神病医师约翰·考利（本·金斯利 Ben Kingsley 饰）有意隐瞒内情，并向查克透露他上岛的真实目的其实是寻找当年纵火烧死他妻子德洛丽丝（米歇尔·威廉姆斯 Michelle Williams 饰）的管理员，并揭露美国政府利用精神病犯人进行人体科学实验的罪行。但随着调查的逐渐深入，真相却变得越来越扑朔迷离……

回复 :Three years after the loss of his brother Vittorio, with whom he shared his entire career, Paolo Taviani returns to the works of Luigi Pirandello, which the pair adapted in 1984 (Chaos) and 1998 (You Laugh). In keeping with the Sicilian playwright’s vision, the film is not at all what it appears to be. The title may come from a 1910 novella, but there is no trace of that book’s jealousy-riddled plot. Instead, the focus is on Pirandello himself, or rather, his ashes, which are transported from a hasty burial site in fascist Rome to a permanent resting place in Sicily, on a trek that takes us through post-war Italy and its filmed memories, as seen in newsreels, amateur films and fragments of Neorealism. Having buried the master, Leonora addio then shifts gear from road movie to film adaptation, but here it picks a different Pirandello story, namely the last one, written shortly before his death in 1936. From the farewell of the title to its return to the writer’s last words, it is hard not to read this work, so free and yet so much a part of the Taviani world, as a moving brotherly farewell which, just as in 2012’s Golden Bear winner Caesar Must Die, once again uses cinema to give voice to literature and history.
