Arkham, 1975: Jonathan Davis' father has disappeared. His tracks lead to Germany, to the Swabian-Franconian Forest where he was stationed after the Second World War. Jonathan sets out to find him and bring him home, but deep in the woods he discovers a dark mystery from the past. Based on H.P. Lovecraft's short novel "The Colour Out of Space".
brutashell review - 'Filmed in black and white and primarily spoken in German, it is obvious that Die Farbe did not have a huge budget to work with. Effects are minimal and the cast is utterly unknown. I should point out that these are all good things, and work very much in the film's favour. There is no CGI to rely on, no name actors to carry it. Rather, the filmmakers do the unthinkable: they create a genuine atmosphere of unimaginable dread and unspeakable horror, using shadow, suggestion and rare splashes of that Nameless colour in a few select frames. In short, they did a damn good job. Die Farbe is subtle in its mounting horror, nurturing a dark dread deep in your bowels with every shot. All of the best and most stomach-turningly distressing films I’ve ever seen have come out of Germany: M, The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari, The White Ribbon, and now this one. Leave it to the Germans. We know how to gross you out on the deepest psychological levels.
Lovecraft worshippers and devotees of German Expressionism alike, take heed: seek out and view this film at your earliest possible convenience. It’s a dark, noisome little gem that will squirm into your subconscious and lay its eggs in your sanity. Hey, not everyone gets the honour of being a host organism for the Elder Gods, you know.'
纽约电影节看的首映。完全舞台化的打光和表演，转场很惊艳。
极简舞台剧，中世纪建筑冷峻鬼魅，迷雾重重，影子般的乌鸦，神叨叨的恶魔，有《第七封印》的感觉了，摄影简直太美太美，灯光也打的颇具水准。一度认为莎翁原著中的活生生的人性罪恶和宿命论很适合放在德国表现主义，黑白，高反差的戏剧化影像进行表达，畸变的人，扭曲的脸在一个个特写里直击观者，而那些高大建筑生硬的切线仿佛时刻在将人分割，虽看整个片子没什么原创性但在视觉表达和呈现上足够惊艳
属于颁奖季特供了，有点<第七封印>的影子，不过也就看表演、视听和导演风格，故事真的没什么意思了。
fran来演麦克白夫人真是有生之年！非要鸡蛋里挑骨头的话就是配乐有点弱
第3524-剧情上可能对这个故事太熟悉了，黑白影像并没有使气氛冷冽多少，皇宫那朴素简化空旷的环境给人一种干燥感，就这环境，抢这个王位真的好吗？
极简的表现主义，麦克白较中规中矩的一次影像呈现。但作为科恩本人的重大突破，风格化（包括剧情的演绎）当然是成功的
极简的城堡风，极致唯美的摄影，莎士比亚的经典台词。这无疑是电影史上迄今为止最好的麦克白。
舞台化的步光以及黑白选择，非常古典，电影化的电影。除了丹泽尔华盛顿的台词有点温吞，几近完美。有几个镜头及构图实在是美不胜收，这才是光影中作画。
再次叹服他们每一版麦克白都好绝活！
Interesting shadows and lighting but why would you put a mid-century door that you can probably find on Wayfair in such a beautiful building? very disturbing. | Frances being Frances - must be satisfying for an actor to take on a role like this. | @ Coolidge Corner theater, with wine, Chardonnay in a cup and Sauvignon blanc on the coat.
对于莎翁经典的再度演绎，这一版相较于影史上较为著名的奥逊威尔斯和黑泽明的版本，亮点在于黑白摄影和极简的服化道美术，以及更加具有舞台剧质感的表演和置景，所以这一部4：3的画幅更像是看了一场舞台剧。没想到导演是科恩兄弟的哥哥，出品方是影迷的老熟人厂牌A24。
麦克白的悲剧，重点放在“悲剧”二字上。基本上在黑白光影中将暗处的悲剧呈现出来，阴暗是绝对的黑，偶尔侧身时似乎还有光。大段大段体现矛盾心理的台词，给眼睛“窒息”感，很精彩、很累。极简黑白风又像杂志插画，略显刻意了。
英语级别低者不友好，我就是。
4.现代种族价值的改编，黑人的加入，多了点政治正确。
把麦克白浓缩到光和影和表演，to the core，好适合学生看
4:3黑白、打光，这都像黑泽明的电影元素。虽然不同场景间剪辑衔接地很巧妙，但大段自言自语舞台剧风格的电影真让我受不了，20分钟弃剧。
不是很适应这种类型的电影，完全就是把话剧搬过来了而已，除了一些镜头有些惊艳意外，我还是喜欢一般电影的那种风格
科恩单飞之后的预热吧，摄影极具风格，结合建筑光影关系凸显人物内心的磊落与阴暗，这样的处理在以往电影中只作为辅助手段，这次科恩却把建筑视觉语音以舞台背景元素强调表现矛盾冲突。这也算是对莎翁戏剧《麦克白》的全新解读。可建筑光影交替和莎翁极具交响乐般的对白，无法在影片中交相辉映，略显撕扯。丹泽尔.华盛顿的内心挣扎实在显得有些疲惫，看不出本能的纠结，只有学院话戏剧功底的堆砌。
很多独白的台词能接受的话便会发现如诗一般美
3.5.文本和形式所追求的极简还是有些冲突，但是光影效果和背景的表现主义感受还是强烈的，虽然可以说确实当下追求的复古不甚必要，但偶尔观看起来还是有值得享受的地方。
