A most pleasingly atmospheric rendition of the tale, noirishly photographed and moodily set, this is the version which probably would have delighted Conan Doyle the most. There is one important plot change which enables the beautiful Alice Brandt to enjoy both a larger role and a more intriguing part in the proceedings. This change also builds up the parts of Dr Mortimer and Lord Charles, yet at the same time provides a nice introduction to the is-he-sinister or is-he-a-good-guy Barrymore, deftly played here by Fritz Rasp.
Despite the sting of its well-developed story, the spellbindingly atmospheric direction and the engrossing performances delivered by the entire cast, many fans may find this version somewhat disappointing. For at least three reasons: As in the novel, the part played in the narrative by Sherlock Holmes, though vital, is minimal. And in this version, not only has no attempt been made to enlarge his role, if anything both writer and director do their best to minimize it. Holmes does not even make his entrance for half-an-hour, and when he does finally appear, he has his back to the camera. It is Fritz Odemar, as Dr Watson, who receives the more favorable camera angles. And there is a purpose in this. It is Watson, not Holmes, who figures as the main protagonist of The Hound of the Baskervilles. For the bulk of the narrative, Holmes disappears. It is Watson and Lord Henry (Peter Voss) who take up the running. The movie is almost over, before Holmes closes in on the villain. And even so, this is not the obsessed, self-important Holmes we are accustomed to see taking charge. Another problem is that the title hound itself does not figure a great deal in the action, a downgrading which will undoubtedly rate as another major disappointment for fans. And finally, it could be argued that the script gives too much attention to Conan Doyle's red herring, the escaped convict, and not enough to the real villain.
This said, it must surely be admitted by all, that Odemar's interpretation of Watson—intelligent, charming, level-headed, courageous and resourceful—is much closer to Conan Doyle's conception than either the bungling, inveterately stupid Nigel Bruce or the self-effacing Ian Fleming.
One other player deserves special mention: Erich Ponto (Dr Winkel in The Third Man) who seems exactly right for Stapleton. A difficult part, superbly played.

其实更喜欢<骑士>啦，这部也不赖，但也不至于惊叹好得过分，你能看到一个人而非只是个女性与这个世界自处的方式，和解真的存在吗？越过山水，才知道答案。
大量固定镜头，大量空镜，类纪录片模式，精简的对白，偏严肃题材。这几项元素堆积，让观影难度陡然提升，隔了好几次才看完。表面是反资本主义的现实议题，实则空洞无味，如高级版郭敬明一样感叹金钱魔力罢了。
生命因奇遇而滚动
后劲儿比较大，情绪在壮丽风景和“生活”细节的交缠下被炼出
真诚与真诚之间，有一段温存的怀疑。赵婷喜欢将镜头裹着倾斜与呼吸感，怼到她关注的事物上去。她的特写透露着一种关切。
比起Eliza Hittman更加自然主义，或许deep focus+wide scale才是自然主义电影的最佳选择！前面的配乐有点索然无味，只有最后几次主题性音乐是打动我的，因为如同赵婷以往的叙事风格一样——最后我们才明白人物的困境从何而来，而这段旅行究竟在解决什么——在故事结尾那克制涌动的情绪才尽显波浪。比骑士更弱情节，也更深沉，从关乎小我上升到大生命之情怀，如何面对孤独，死亡，路上的人和将行的路，以及保有那份如美国拓荒者一样的勇敢。
还有一个感动我的，房车营地营地有人去世，每个人都往火堆里扔她最喜欢的石头，费恩扔进去了一块巨大的。
对于游牧生活的诗意书写，摄影配乐都很棒，但女主角的个倾塑造有点模糊不清，她的“在路上”到底是无奈之选还是自我放逐，电影并没有明确表达，如果单就一部探索心灵的公路片来看，还是充满诗意的。
❶ 我見過寫詩的乞丐，彈吉他的手機貼膜師，所以相信底層不止肯洛奇，也會有吉普賽詩意（臉龐村莊裡不就有個以宇宙為家的浪漫流浪漢嗎）著墨少不同於無 ❷獨立堅韌又保持距離的善意 ❸內布拉斯加收甜菜，在亞馬遜的臨時工作，土豆山下孤獨蹲坐，深夜降溫的停車站，洗澡時沖走身上污垢，借錢碰壁，生存技能的互相傳授，停車過夜被驅逐...哪個不是生活的困苦呢 ❹收集石化的棕櫚木；荒野裡的黃昏；去大房車參觀驚嘆有洗衣機，假裝出發去夏威夷；在動物園看餵食鱷魚被嚇到；觀星體張開右手接住1987年星光並感受原子爆炸到手中；舉起多孔石塊看遠處山脈；swankie發來的燕群視頻 ❺ salute to the earth ship ❻不是homeless，是houseless ❼將遠方的石頭投入火堆中懷念我。
很有质感的一部作品，改编自美国记者杰西卡·布鲁德2017年的非虚构作品《无依之地：生存在21世纪的美国》。在金融危机背景下，一个失去爱人又失去居所的女人不得不上路，经历了露营窘境，也体验到大自然的美与惬意。路上有各种原因飘在旅途的游民，一次次相遇别离重逢，她得到成长和治愈，逐渐放下过去，重拾自由精神，拒绝宗教、家庭、爱情，独自走向新生活之路。导演虽是华人，但显然已真正融入美国生活，非常了解当地文化与民情。正如导演在采访时说的“电影中充满社会评论”，这部片子不仅捕捉到美国游民的真实状态，更是冷静客观展现出金融危机后，失业对美国底层摧毁性的影响，暗示养老金亏空现状，以及消费主义背景下，房贷带来的泡影，甚至通过YouTube大V之口直指美元暴政……影片表现出反抗资本，期待美国开拓西部精神的延续。
老无所依又没钱，那就去周游世界吧，所有的失去，世界都会还给你！
“谁此时没有房子，就不必建造，谁此时孤独，就永远孤独。”路上的那种孤寂感想起了里尔克这句诗以及亚历山大-佩恩的《内布拉斯加》。
电影是很主观的，如果说很喜欢的人是因为看到了自由和追求，那我只能看到孤独和悲伤…
今天获得金球奖，恰好昨天才看。可能还是离个人生活境遇太远，代入感不强，体悟孤独，继续上路~
What's remembered lives.
在这个潦倒的时代，她不得不逃离，即便些许留恋与施舍，也换不来心灵的慰藉，因为这是她为数不多的高贵。科恩嫂这个角色塑造得太棒了，影后有希望。
女主在别人眼里看似窘迫的公路生活，在习惯漂泊的人眼里，有着自己的孤傲与浪漫。让我想起《猜火车》里的那段经典台词，生活中就是有人不想买他妈的大电视，而选择不停地在路上，看群山，看飞鸟，looking ahead, to the day you die.
观感上比《骑士》好很多，更多的是对情绪和状态的表达。
每一个在夹缝中生存的灵魂都应该相信无依之地的也有温暖
Happy new year。
