阿格涅丝卡·霍兰凭借这部迄今为止最具野心的作品达成了导演生涯的巅峰，她呈现了一部关于20世纪捷克标志性作家弗朗茨·卡夫卡的传记片。影片以万花筒般的拼贴手法构建而成，追随卡夫卡留下的足迹——从19世纪的布拉格出发，直至他在维也纳辞世，时间跨度涵盖第一次世界大战及之后。《弗朗茨》一片将为观众提供一个独特的视角，一窥这位文学巨匠背后的人生轨迹。

First broadcast on the UK’s Channel 4 in March 1988 this was episode 10 (of 11) of the series The Modern World, Ten Great Writers. 　　It mixes documentary and interview with a part dramatisation of The Trial starring the still relatively unknown Tim Roth (he is fourth in the credits listing on Amazon). The voiceover is by the ever so serious but still rather good Melvyn Bragg and there are comments from the even more serious George Steiner who at one point makes the salient comment that Kafka is the only writer (or person?) ever to be identified by just an initial. 　　The picture quality is not great but given the nature of the piece and its rarity that is not a great drawback. Please add to the Franz Kafka Collection. 　　As ever, given its rarity, this piece is for the benefit of the members of this wonderful site and not for other sites and especially not for any public sites. If any member should see any of my uploads on a public site please let me know and I will kill, and then reload, the links.

Explores the life and work of the psychoanalytic theorist and activist Frantz Fanon who was born in Martinique, educated in Paris and worked in Algeria. Examines Fanon's theories of identity and race, and traces his involvement in the anti-colonial struggle in Algeria and throughout the world.

Alfred Brendel, one of the greatest of all pianists, plays and reflects on Franz Schubert’s last three piano sonatas. As he points out, Schubert can’t have known that he was soon to die, so they probably do not embody the air of resignation and finality future generations have sentimentally insisted they bear. They were however long neglected, all but forgotten, and only in more recent times have they come to be treasured and performed. The repose and wisdom of the maestro, together with the patient observation of one who is no stranger to the idea of the irrevocably lost, of the erasures of history, and of the value of fragile objects passed carefully from generation to generation, is a joy.
