電影選播 : 《亞歷山大大帝(下)》(Alexander The Great 2)
西奥‧安哲羅普洛斯Theo Angelopoulos
影片的意念來自希臘的民間故事和傳說，亞歷山大大帝是希臘最受歡迎的民間傳奇人物。電影從1900年元旦那天開始，巴黎公社失敗後幾年，亞歷山大是監獄裏一個充滿聖靈的人，一個落敗為寇的土匪，後演變成民間英雄。有一天他發現牢門竟然自動打開，他從監獄逃脫後，劫持了幾個英國貴族，開出的“贖金”是地主將土地歸還給農民。公社成立後，社會主義的理想被內訌所取代，一群義大利無政府主義者、激進份子以及只有信仰沒有根基的人士為了搶班奪權不擇手段。

«Through his lens, Angelopoulos looks at things in silence. It is the weight of this silence and the intensity of the immobile stare of Angelopoulos' camera which makes MEGALEXANDROS so powerful that the viewer cannot break away from the screen.»
Akira Kurosawa
Drawing from the so-called Dilessi incident of 1870 (updated in the film to the dawn of the twentieth century), this Megalexandros is a bandit of the sort that typically plagued nineteenth century Greece. Wrapped in the spiritual cloak of yet another Megalexandros - a legendary Greek liberator and King Arthur-like figure whose tale originated in 1453 under Turkish domination and has come down through oral tradition over the centuries - he becomes a leader of mysterious charisma. He kidnaps a group of English aristocrats and takes them to a mountain village where he is attempting to establish an agrarian commune among a company of Italian anarchists. The socialist hero becomes a Stalin-like tyrant whose trademark silence only reinforces his power.
