犹太人苏斯[电影解说]

《犹太人苏斯》是纳粹宣传体系中极具代表性的案例，威特·哈尔兰采用闭合式戏剧结构，将历史事件压缩为线性因果链：每个场景都服务于预设的道德结论，通过交叉剪辑制造“贪婪犹商”与“纯洁德意志”的视觉对立。说真的，这片子只适合两类人：一是研究二战宣传史的学者，二是想亲眼见识电影如何被当作杀人凶器的好奇观众。普通观众千万别当娱乐片看，心里要时刻绷根弦——这是毒药，不是艺术。但心里得明白：它从头到尾都是谎言，是技术输给了道德的典型案例。影片镜头调度颇具表现主义遗风：苏斯登场时常以低角度仰拍搭配侧逆光，强化其“外来者”的阴谋气质；而克里斯蒂娜·泽德尔鲍姆饰演的受难女性则多用柔光近景，形成情感锚点。剧情呢，改编自18世纪符腾堡公国的真实案件，但历史完全被扭曲了，结尾那段绞刑戏拍得特别“大快人心”，现在看简直细思极恐。

　　In this notorious Nazi propaganda historical costume melodrama, a conniving, ambitious Jewish businessman, Suess Oppenheimer, snares a post as treasurer to the Duke of Wurttemburg by showering the corrupt duke with treasure and promises of even greater riches. As the Jew's schemes grow more elaborate and his actions more brazen, the dukedom nearly erupts into civil war. Persuaded by the Jew, the Duke all but scuttles the constitution and alienates the assembly by lifting the local ban on Jews in Stuttgart. In a final outrage, the Jew rapes a wholesome German girl and tortures her father and fiancee. When the Duke succumbs to a sudden heart attack, the assembly of Elders try the Jew and sentence him to death for having "carnal knowledge of a Christian woman."
