Herbert Vesely was one of the promises for a new German cinema already in the 50's, but after the 60's his star was already dimmed. He made a small number of films in the 70's and 80's, all non too good. This biography of Egon Schiele, one of the most important Austrian artists, is an example of the pretensions and emptiness of a Vesely-film of later date. The life of Schiele is presented here as a puzzle| well, Vesely thinks that Schiele's life was a puzzle: the core of the story is centered around the famous 1912 pornography trial and using this as base the film shows fragments of past and future. The problem is that it never becomes a unity and that the order of scenes and sequences seems to be at random: a cut-and-paste job that could have had any other result. Indeed, after seeing it twice I am almost convinced of it that a unsatisfactory linear thought-out film was changed into the puzzle in the editing room. Egon Schiele was an enigmatic man, but not a total puzzle, and this film does not bring him any closer. The films also fails in conveying the eroticism and meaning of the Schiele's paintings: the camera watches and glides over the models without any understanding of Schiele's intentions, we only see beautiful naked bodies. If interested in Schiele, you better buy a book with his works in stead.。主持人 Chad Houseknecht 是发明家，武器历史学家 Mike Loades 每周都会选择另一种历史武器。在 Loads 探索其历史的同时（经常去采访现代实践者的国家），Houseknecht 尝试使用现代技术对其进行改进。在每集的结尾，都会进行新版本的挑战测试。 在这一系列非常刺激的节目中，科技与历史将进行正面碰撞，我们将看到改变世界的武器，亲眼见证其强大力量。但古代的工匠们做对了吗？我们能否用现代材料、科学与技术制造出更加精良的武器？或者古代工匠看似简单的方法实际上就是最好的选择，且能经受住时间的考验？ 本节目共10集…… 日本武士刀（Pilot - Katana） 罗马蝎弩（Roman Scorpion） 梭标投射器（Atlatl） 双轮战车弓箭（Chariot Bow） 印度轮刃（The Deadly Chakram） 吹矢枪（B...。Rebecca is still smarting from Evan Drake's departure to Japan. So instead of men, she focuses her energies on furthering her career - she figures that Evan Drake took all the key players from the company to Japan with him, and thus all those that knew she is a "washout" are now all gone - and buying a Mercedes.
