The subject of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub’s Der Tod des Empedokles (The Death of Empedocles, 1987) is the Greek pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles (c. 490 BC – 430 BC), who lived in the Greek colony of Agrigentum in Sicily. His theories are mentioned in several of Plato’s dialogues. He maintained that all matter is made up of four irreducible elements: water, earth, air and fire. A mystic and a poet, he is considered to be the founder of classical rhetoric. He is also thought to be the last Greek philosopher to write in verse; two fragments of his works survive: Katharmoi (Purifications) and Peri Phuseôs (On Nature). An advocate of democracy, he came into conflict with his fellow citizens of Agrigentum and, as result, was banished with his young disciple, Pausanius. When he was asked to return, he preferred to commit suicide by throwing himself into the active volcano at Mount Aetna.
The German writer Friedrich Hölderlin wrote two versions of Der Tod des Empedokles in 1798 and 1800, and a final third version in 1820, all three ultimately unfinished. They were conceived as five-act tragedies and all three differ in plot. According to Michael Hamburger, Hölderlin’s English-language translator,
the main reason why Hölderlin finished no version of the play must be that he remained too closely identified with Empedocles, at the very period in his life when his own view of the poet as philosopher, prophet and priest – and as tragic hero – was subject to perpetual crisis and re-examination.
Huillet-Straub’s The Death of Empedocles is based on Hölderlin’s first version (the longest of the three), whereas Black Sin is based on the third version.
致命录像带依旧是我最爱的伪记录系列，出多少我都看。
跟天鹅挽歌有点相似，不过天鹅挽歌那个没有更深入，这个伦理方面有更深入一点，还有就是法律有点扯，凭啥只能活一个，替身一个小时就做好了
最后到底是本体还是复制体活下来，好像都可以，这个开放式结局算点睛之笔了，本以为最后会来一场饥饿游戏式的决斗，结果意料之外细思极恐
随着剧情的发展，肉眼可见的星云妹子的体型越来越好。剧设的立意很好，但是探讨的还是太浅了，有一种想发力但是又无力可发的无奈
最大的亮点是决斗规则的设计，挺刺激的，但中间太文艺，又内心冲突表达不足，就显得没那么精彩了
电影就像他妈，一个老太太坐着给你讲个童话故事。漏洞百出，不合理的地方太多。剧本还算过得去，导演太完蛋，没拍好。
6分。科幻外衣下的人性探讨。许多对白还是很精炼的，还很黑色幽默，故事讲得很流畅，最后的结局也在意料之中。
女主角颜值高身高高，但是感觉语调没有起伏呢？
难道不是本体杀了克隆，然后假装克隆假装本体吗？
那些说本体赢了然后不得不扮演复制体的，可能没注意一个细节。喝水的时候本体是扎了头发+圆领T恤，复制体是披着头发里面是衬衫。本体毒发死亡后，复制体穿了她的外套，但是里面的衣服没有换掉。所以死的就是本体，复制体说自己是本体，因为一来可以避免法律制裁，二来其妈妈和男友其实都是喜欢复制体的，合谋害死了本体，心照不宣。结尾哭啥？因为这也不是复制体想要的生活啊！
白瞎了小粉了
故事还挺有意思的，本体和克隆人只能活一个，通过决斗定死活。有点反乌托邦的设定，但重心还是放在这个高概念故事下的人物抉择上。最后没等来一场决斗有点泄气。
太逗了
科幻的设定很好，故事结构也可以，只可惜了女主太过天真，让贱人得逞还要再矫情。有些细节应该呼应得更好，比如眼睛👁️颜色
应该是不错的电影 但是对于我来说太过压抑和无趣了
这个片子主要是结局很有意思，最后出现的可能是本体也可能是克隆体，就看你怎么去解读了，练了一年的技能也都没用上啊！
冷漠、自私、草率、薄情的情绪铺得很满，最后的开放性结局辐射面很大。替身蓄谋毒杀、或者是本身识破阴谋后反杀，这两个结局都造就了片尾的崩溃情绪。看起来不知所云实际上涵义颇深，大约就是看自己怎么去理解了。如此一样样病态的社会现象，却是值得深思的…
最后死掉的应该是original，被copy毒死了。判断依据是妈妈和男友对她投以蜜汁笑容，说明他们俩都知道这个人是copy，而且妈妈还给她买了隐形眼镜(遮盖眼珠颜色)。copy蹩脚的开车技术和对车祸的描述也是copy的语言风格。
借着塑双重身体和身份，讲了一个应该如何自我成长和蜕变的故事
感觉最后活着的如果是本体，暴风哭泣更有说服力。但是本体的话，最后环岛逆行又怎么解释……
