Herbert Vesely was one of the promises for a new German cinema already in the 50's, but after the 60's his star was already dimmed. He made a small number of films in the 70's and 80's, all non too good. This biography of Egon Schiele, one of the most important Austrian artists, is an example of the pretensions and emptiness of a Vesely-film of later date. The life of Schiele is presented here as a puzzle| well, Vesely thinks that Schiele's life was a puzzle: the core of the story is centered around the famous 1912 pornography trial and using this as base the film shows fragments of past and future. The problem is that it never becomes a unity and that the order of scenes and sequences seems to be at random: a cut-and-paste job that could have had any other result. Indeed, after seeing it twice I am almost convinced of it that a unsatisfactory linear thought-out film was changed into the puzzle in the editing room. Egon Schiele was an enigmatic man, but not a total puzzle, and this film does not bring him any closer. The films also fails in conveying the eroticism and meaning of the Schiele's paintings: the camera watches and glides over the models without any understanding of Schiele's intentions, we only see beautiful naked bodies. If interested in Schiele, you better buy a book with his works in stead.。1900年，帝国主义凭借洋枪洋炮叩开封闭已久的中国大门，八国联军长驱直入，烧杀抢掠，无恶不作。慈禧太后和皇帝仓皇逃出紫禁城，黎民百姓未及逃脱，遭受洋人的屠杀和凌辱。义和团将勇石不仁起兵反抗，无奈兵器落后，被洋人杀得丢盔弃甲，死伤无数。 北京郊区附近，醉鬼张三隐居于此，他身怀绝技，武艺高强，其父曾是清廷官员，但遭到荣禄陷害，家人尽丧性命。在青梅竹马的王丽媛的帮助下，张三杀死荣禄走狗玉面狼，逃到京城。他们与石不仁会合，四方好汉决心不惜一切代价救出被八国联军囚禁起来的妇女。一场营救行动旋即展开……。清代中叶，活跃在西北地区的白莲教义军被清庭剿灭，教民在最后一位教主苍爷的带领下准备殉教。深夜，苍爷来到秀湄的房中，举行了简单的婚礼。清军攻入，杀死了所有男教民，秀湄与其他老弱妇孺一起由干总刘杰三押送，被流放新疆。老教民徐爷被指派当教民的头。秀湄怀孕了，为保护她，刘称孩子是自己的。徐爷得知事情真相，帮助秀湄逃跑。刘一怒杀死全体教民，自己也因失职成为阶下囚。。
