回复 :埃尔文·隆美尔是二战中德国最负盛名的将领，也是希特勒最为宠爱的将领。稍对世界军事史有了解的人都会知道他那个著名的绰号——“沙漠之狐”。由于他在北非沙漠战场的一系列惊人战绩（隆美尔率领2个师的军队在北非仅仅用了2个星期就让英军之前2个月的战果丧失殆尽）和德国媒体和盟国媒体的疯狂宣传，他在世时就已成为一个具有传奇色彩的军人和德国人崇拜的偶像。第二次世界大战爆发后，隆美尔作为德国最高统帅部的指挥官之一，受到希特勒的器重。1940年2月，希特勒任命他为第7装甲师师长，并赠给《我的奋斗》一书。5～6月间，在德军闪击西欧的侵略战争中，隆美尔指挥装甲第7师冲在最前面，先克比利时，接着是阿拉斯、索姆，最后直捣法国西海岸，被法国人称之为“魔鬼之师”。1941年2月，希特勒又任命隆美尔为“德国非洲军”军长，前往北非援救一败涂地的意大利军队。他到达北非的黎波里前线后，立即作了一次侦察飞行，得出了“进攻就是最好的防守”的结论。于是他便改变“固守防线”的命令，指挥他的装甲部队冒着沙漠风暴勇猛穿插，全速前进。英军猝不及防，节节败退。德军直逼亚历山大和苏伊士。隆美尔因此名声大振，赢得了“沙漠之狐”的美名，并被晋升为元帅。后来，德军主力被牵制在苏德战场，希特勒不肯抽兵援助北非前线，致使隆美尔不得不停止进攻而在阿莱曼进行防守。1942年11月，隆美尔以其仅有的5万军队和550辆坦克在阿莱曼地区抗击蒙哥马利的19.5万军队和1029辆坦克，终因寡不敌众而惨遭失败。1943年3月，隆美尔奉召回德国大本营。同年7月，调任驻北意大利的陆军“B”集团军群司令。1943年12月至1944年7月，他率陆军“B”集团军群在法国组织防御，指挥抵抗诺曼底登陆战役。随后，德国发生了行刺希特勒未遂事件，隆美尔株连其中。1944年10月14日，由于希特勒派人逼迫，他在一辆小轿车中服毒自尽，而对外宣布的消息，则是“隆美尔陆军元帅在途中中风去世”。

回复 :Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
