巴比伦柏林第一季

从没有一部剧像有那么多角色让我喜欢的，卡洛特、布鲁诺、夜总会老板。

卡洛特有梦想又担当，还不怕死；布鲁诺整个持权欺人的坏警察，顺手牵羊、打疑犯、动私刑，但后面听见枪声立刻动手去就拍档，最后居然陪格里安烧了录像带，还以为他怎么着也借机揽个大利呢；夜总会老板喝止手下好Man，虽然我觉得他是怕大家误伤自己哈哈哈。

无奈对相关历史背景完全空白，所以好多地方都没看明白，夜总会老板和医生一群人唱歌那段是不是表示他们是反战的？

得找些书补下课了。

各位演员的演技都好棒啊，由最没料到的主角开场，枪丢了还差点被疑犯毙了；瘾君子可悲又可怜，不过他也忒厉害，连保险箱钥匙在哪都知道……所有人的样貌都非常有特色，大爱选角导演。

实景，群众聚集的场面不糊弄，还有每段舞蹈的场景也超有感，只可惜女伯爵男性装扮压不住场（能让我惊呼的只有男装梅艳芳）。

我单方面宣布德国人才是最会拍男人的！

同样是追寻一个谜团，男主是那么的易碎，那么的脆弱，那么的奄奄一息，苍白无力。

他穿着整齐的灰暗而又价格不菲颇具质感的衣服，眼睛的颜色很浅而又总会透露出疑惑的，惊恐的眼神。

他背靠错综复杂而又高高在上的权力，被隐晦地命令去寻找并销毁这个权力下的秘辛，但是他又是如此的被动，如此的错愕，好像第一次从纯洁的伊甸园来到杂乱不堪下流无比的人间。

他被黑布蒙住双眼，他依靠药物让自己停止发抖，但有时候他来不及服药，他躲在厕所的隔间，仰面躺在马桶旁瑟瑟发抖。

他不停地给自己的爱人写信又不停被这种背德的愧疚鞭笞，他在昏暗的忏悔室像神的代言人祷告，他爱上了自己哥哥的妻子，他拿着枪指着所有人，却像一个脆弱的破碎的布偶娃娃，发出乞求被他人支配甚至凌虐的邀请。

女主呢，在破旧杂乱的老屋子里，面对着以言语猥亵自己的姐夫泰然自若穿上丝袜，面对硬拉着自己的小乞丐得意反击，面无表情整理所有的凶杀图片，到点下班轻松自得。

她的小低跟永远那么坚定的踏在她前进的路上，无论是在酒馆下面的皮肉交易所，还是宽阔敞亮的警局。

她的眼神坚毅，再深的黑眼圈也挡不住锋芒，她永远不卑不亢，游刃有余地利用自己的身体，外貌和天赐的智慧与野心去挑战不可能，无论是作为未被登记在册的妓女，还是一个被人看轻的怀揣警察梦的文员。

她永远机敏，充满活力，甚至有些孩子气的狡猾和顽劣。

她跳舞，和男孩约会，逃避冗杂的文书工作，却也会拿起木棍暴打羞辱自己的姐夫。

很高兴奶飞肯拍真正的“事业型女生”，女性的坚韧，聪颖，自尊，不甘卑弱在女主身上展现的淋漓尽致。

也很惊喜奶飞竟然知道如何最大化发挥男主身上的脆弱感，以至于我几乎是完全按照色情片的角度在欣赏男主（还是上好的色情片那种。

）就剧集本身来说，画面的质感没得说，配乐更是加分项，尤其是几场“靡靡之音”下的乐舞和杀人场景来回穿插的画面，比昆汀要优雅多了，收放自如，克制但有万钧之力。

那种糜烂的奢华和可以预见的隐秘的衰败丝丝相融，包裹住剧中人物，带动着观众的心也不由得向深渊里沉去。

故事以多线展开，最后虽然没有真正意义上的结束，但是能够清楚地交代出每条线的走向与彼此之间的关系——女主以惊人的智慧和胆识在这些线之间游走，穿起整个故事，而男主（仅角色）是个非常非常非常不容错过的花瓶。

看见本剧的标题很难不想到另一个城市的巴比伦（正好也是男男相爱相杀XD）。

如果我借用另一作品对巴比伦的解读，这里的标题应该是暗指本剧讲述的柏林，一个如同古巴比伦般耀眼的城市，从金碧辉煌逐渐跌落至混乱深渊的故事吧。

可能是因为本剧讲德语，也可能因为不熟悉德国导演整体风格，我感觉本剧的节奏稍稍与众不同。

大概三集以后本片到底在讲什么才渐渐浮出水面。

———————————————————严重剧透分割线——————————————————————整个故事围绕着一个从科隆去柏林的探员Gereon Rath发展。

作为侦探剧一共有三件案子在同时进行。

第一件是Gereon替他当政客的老爸去销毁他爸玩SM的时候不小心留下的录影带。

这些录影带被柏林本地的一个黑帮控制用来日后敲诈勒索政客。

Gereon拿到片子后在销毁之前自己当然也看了看。

然后他非常震惊地发现自己老爸原来还玩这么重口味的东西。

第二件第三件案子都是围绕着同一列火车。

一战后一群德国军官不满魏玛共和国对内对外的软弱手段，暗中利用钢铁大亨Nyssen家的运货火车从苏联走私军火，准备叛乱推翻民主政府。

这一次他们从苏联运来了一火车的化学武器，结果在Gereon和女主Charlotte Ritter一帮人的搅和下被柏林警察局扣押了。

而另一伙在德国的俄国革命组织, Red Fortress 恰好在那辆火车上暗中加了一个车厢，用以运输黄金去伊斯坦布尔来推翻斯大林的布尔什维克政权。

不要问我为什么是伊斯坦布尔，我和剧中人物一样没搞懂这一点。

结果革命党人被一个歌女 Svetlana Sorokina出卖，惨遭灭门，只有首领Alexej Kardakov逃出。

他跑去本地黑帮那里说这辆火车有黄金，帮忙者有份。

导致黑帮，军队还有Svetlana大姐都在抢火车。

场面一度混乱。

大家都摸不着头脑为什么对方在这里。

三线共进的形式的确挺有野心，能吊起悬疑剧爱好者的胃口。

不过本剧还在三线进行的描写了众多剧中人物的小故事，所以在开场的时候一度让我不知道打的发生了什么，感觉导演有些心有余而力不足。

同时，这样的结构导致分到每一条线上的精力也相对较少。

所以对侦探剧观众来讲，本剧侦探水平其实不怎么高。

Gereon扫黄片那条线基本靠殴打小混混解决。

至于俄国黄金的谜团，Gereon去找Svetlana，自己还没有开口，Svetlana什么都全招了。

相比之下，还是德军叛变的故事着墨较多。

毕竟前两条线更是关于个人的命运而军队叛变关乎到时代和国家的走向，更有空间阐述剧作者的看法。

中间穿插的各种人物的小故事，除了男女主以外其他个人都是短小精干的描写。

故事虽然精彩，但总令我觉得有些散乱。

不过倘若我对巴比伦的解读正确的话，这应该是个描写城市兴衰，而不只是一个描写孤胆英雄的剧集。

由此来讲，对芸芸众生稍有着墨又点到为止的做法也无可厚非。

对于剧情主线的印象也就到此，若说起剧中人物，让我印象深刻的反而不是铁面男主或者他亦敌亦友的搭档，而是小女生Charlotte。

当今在国产剧中，各种苦命贫贱女性发现人生最终的救赎就是嫁个好男人，人生最终的失败也不外乎嫁错了个男人。

相比之下Charlotte确实非常不同。

她过得苦不苦逼？

看着她脏兮兮，衣不遮体的全家和没日没夜工作的生活状态，不需要女主流自怨自艾的眼泪我也知道她活的挺苦逼。

然而，她有哭天抢地吗？

她有觉得自己低贱这也不配那也不配嘛？

人家照样潇洒的夜夜跳着舞，人家照样同时可以和三个男生来电，人家照样抽时间学着怎么去做法医，人家照样为了自己要当柏林第一个女警察不弃不舍地奋斗。

当看到她拿到警察徽章的时候我真的很开心。

若说一个社会的平等是机会的平等的话，她真的就是这样思想的体现。

贫穷小妓女依旧可以在满是男人和家庭主妇的世界里面，理所以当挺胸抬头去追求自己想要的生活和职业。

换成国产剧，估计有个娘娘或者嬷嬷一巴掌就甩过来，附带一句:“贱人，你不配。

” 巴比伦的阴暗处的确是丑恶不堪，但起码这个城市依旧给下水道的老鼠机会做那里的一束光。

标题太难想了，凑合一下吧……PS：感谢楼下诸位指教，原来运黄金去伊斯坦布尔的原因是帮助流亡土耳其的苏俄党内反对派托洛茨基打倒斯大林。

我个人是很喜欢看质感的历史剧的，然而这部剧的优缺点几乎同样明显。

其实在看到导演的时候我大概就有预感了，就像《云图》一样，这位导演痴迷于多线叙事，容易让人看得摸不着头脑。

所幸这次是电视剧，给了导演足够空间铺线。

饶是如此，我也差不多在第一季的结尾部分才基本搞清楚整个布局。

所以这次就不搞直抒胸臆那套了，写一篇指南向的推荐，顺便自己也理理思路，准备开始追第二季。

1.魏玛共和国首先，这部剧的历史背景对我来说挺陌生的，讲述的是魏玛共和国时期的故事。

魏玛共和国是指1918年至1933年期间采用共和宪政政体的德国，也就是一战与二战之间的德国。

而《巴比伦柏林》的故事开始于1929年，这是一个比较敏感的时间，毕竟差不多两年以后元首就上台了。

1929年柏林的局势其实已经岌岌可危，阶级分化严重、各色政党林立。

失业问题的空前严重，动摇了当时的社会根基，数量巨大的失业人群极易被操纵从而颠覆当前格局。

此时，各方势力暗地里的制衡勉强维系住了柏林表面的平静，然而任何一个微小的举动都会牵动各方的神经。

男主格里安因为调查一卷胶卷，从科隆来到柏林警局，但却最终深陷其中，与各方势力纠缠在一起，难以抽身。

2.社会民主党、第四国际、黑色国防军与地头蛇黑帮其次，整理一下第一季里围绕在男主身边的各方势力，大致有四个。

一是以犹太裔警局长官本达与男主父亲为代表的德国社会民主党，也就是当前执政的那个党派。

男主来到柏林，正是受父亲委托处理掉那份对他们不利的胶卷，而他此行的目的也得到了长官本达的支持。

目前来看，男主应该是社民党那一派的。

二是由男主住处的前房客卡达可夫领导的，潜伏在在柏林的第四国际势力，旨在推翻苏联斯大林政权。

虽然第四国际的人在前几集就被灭的只剩下一个人，但他凭借一车厢黄金的诱饵，成功地搅乱了柏林的局势。

而男主因为追查误入他房间那个苏联司机的死因，陷入这个由第四国际制造的漩涡。

三是男主在警局的搭档沃尔特背后的势力——主要由军队成员组成的“黑色国防军”。

其实这方势力是其中最不起眼的，似乎只是利用钢铁商人Nyssen偷运了毒气，然而这群人在最后几集的出场却让人细思极恐。

他们多数是一战的老兵，打着怀念战友的名号聚会，却试图再次发动战争收复失地。

而且在喜爱给小男孩灌输战争思想这方面，与元首真是极其相似。

这派势力也向男主抛出了橄榄枝，而男主因为录像带的冲击似乎也有些动摇。

四是拥有胶卷试图勒索政客的本地黑帮，这群人还因为黄金的诱惑加入了火车的争夺。

还有那个研究PTSD的医生，似乎试图利用男主心理创伤控制他，不知道是不是和他们一伙的，这里我看的不是很清楚。

3.胶卷和火车再次，整理一下第一季的案件，主要都是围绕胶卷和火车这两样事物展开的。

胶卷是男主格里安来到柏林的最初原因，而在最后一集男主也成功将胶卷从黑帮手里夺走并销毁。

这条线看似很简单，但是不排除后续影响深远。

比如，胶卷内容对男主冲击巨大，可能会对他的立场有所动摇；而黑帮也不可能就此放过，很有可能继续追究。

火车则卷入了更多的势力，军队方面是为了争夺偷运来的毒气，而第四国际及黑帮则觊觎其中一车厢的黄金。

因为第四国际的关系，这辆火车还吸引了苏联使馆方面势力。

最终却因为女主的调查，成功被警局控制。

可以说这趟列车牵动着军队与社民党当局之间的矛盾，也因为苏联使馆的卷入可能引发外交问题。

4. Charlotte Ritter最后还是要私心说一下女主。

虽然近几年不乏优秀的大女主电视剧，但是这部剧里的夏洛特是我近期最喜欢的女性角色。

外表苍白纤弱，内心却是超乎常人的坚定。

她的身体里似乎蕴含着一股蓬勃向上的力量，以致浓重的黑眼圈都掩盖不住她眼睛里的光芒。

我特别喜欢看她走路的样子，低跟敲在地上的声音给人一种不容置疑的感觉，似乎她一直坚定有力地在朝一个明确的目的地行进。

私心非常希望夏洛特能如愿以偿进入警察局，不单单因为她在第一季表现出的（个人觉得远胜于男主的）查案天分，还有她身上带着的那股劲儿，是这部压抑阴暗的电视剧唯一充满生机和美好的部分。

个人非常喜欢女主与朋友在周日游泳那段剧情，几个阳光灿烂的镜头一扫之前剧情带来的压抑，对于调和整部电视剧的基调非常有益。

以上都是个人观点，随便总结一下就可以开始舒服地追第二季了。

究竟是道德的沦丧还是人性的泯灭？

还记得那个曾经带给你无数视觉体验却因为太烧钱而被迫砍掉的大尺度神剧《超感猎杀》吗？

还记得被砍时粉丝们苦苦哀求片方奈何开销太大无力继续拍摄的悲恸吗？

不过，超感的粉丝们不用再继续苦等遥遥无期的第三季了，我们超会花钱的导演汤姆·提克威已经提着他的才华继续出来烧钱啦！

（不知道这次能烧多久？

其实本人看德国电视剧不太多，我个人第一部德国电影应该是1998年的《罗拉快跑》，应该有很多人的第一部和我相同吧。

而这部奔跑中的《罗拉快跑》的导演即是这位德国人汤姆·提克威，也是这部《巴比伦柏林》的导演兼编剧。

据悉《巴比伦柏林》是迄今为止德国电视剧中最昂贵的一部，制作费高达400万欧元，想想那些投资破亿却婆婆妈妈各种植入弱智广告的国产电视剧，这部德剧真的堪称良心之作，分分钟花的都是真金白银，钱都花在刀刃上了，能不出好作品吗？

（当然不能！

与电影比肩的色调及画面

所有的打光、焦点、画面的结构，乃至人物的服饰都进行了电影化的处理，比如下图中女主孔雀绿的帽子，在一众灰黑棕中鹤立鸡群，让观众一下子就能发现谁才是重要角色。

又比如这一幕的烟雾缭绕，为主角的出场染上了神秘色彩。

看剧必备历史宝典整部剧的背景设置在上世纪20年代的柏林，一战失利后的魏玛共和国，幻想中的君主制被弱小的民主制取代，沉重的赔款和越来越严重的经济危机继续压迫着底层人民，所有的一切就像压倒骆驼的最后一根稻草，摧毁了西方上百年的价值观与宗教信仰。

人们对现代化狂热膜拜，整个国家就如同《巴比伦柏林》中所展现的一般，到处蒸汽飞扬，机械鸣笛，人们就像是一个个迷失在巨大锅炉房中的行尸走肉，看不见蓝天，没有阳光的普照，终日沦陷于纸醉金迷之中继续彷徨与迷惘。

1927年德国影史标杆之作《大都会》，即为当时那个年代里的人们对摩天大楼的无限憧憬与对未来无知的幻想。

人们一方面消极地逃避一战战败的耻辱，一方面又在积极地在经济危机时期挥霍那些不值钱的货币。

迷失与盲目，过度的放纵与最终的极权，所有的一切终究酿成了最后的悲剧，魏玛毕竟只是块历史的垫脚石。

[The City, George Grosz]欲望的十字路口，你奔流向前，却不知哪里是天堂、哪里又是地狱。

在这样混乱的历史背景下的故事也就可以顺理成章的很黄很暴力了。

魏玛共和国的形形色色

男主格里安是一位患有严重战后PTSD（创伤后应激障碍）的探长，从科隆调到柏林，表面上是一位风纪组警官，实际上是在调查一起高官不雅视频的案件。

女主洛特，身处贫民窟，白天在警局做着文职工作，晚上做高级应召女贴补家用。

拿着不雅视频敲诈勒索的黑社会老大。

还有为了民主为了德国崭新的明天，第四国际“红色堡垒”骨干小提琴手，以及假意支持第四国际实则在转移黄金的俄国女伯爵等等。

几乎所有人物的登场都是从后脑勺开始或者先声夺人，每个角色在导演的设计中或多或少带着点朦胧的面纱，令人无法看清他背后的真面目，让观众怀揣着无数个问号在剧集的深海中找寻答案。

在悬疑这一点上，导演可谓下足了功夫不让你轻易看懂。

其实这部德剧，你只需要用45分钟的时间看完第一集就够了。

因为从一上来回忆与现实的镜头切换，到导演对于光影的把控，以及方方面面的调度，就已经注定了它的不平凡与导演无处安放的野心。

在男主不断成长不断接近真相的过程中，向世人展现德国当时的世间百态，当你真正了解看懂了格里安时，或许你就能够明白历史中的德国和人性的狂欢与丧失了。

个人公众号，分享一部电影，一点小感悟。

——《魏玛文化》摘录（我或许也会将此评论的内容同样放在这本书的书评里）

魏玛文化7.7（美）彼得・盖伊 / 2005 / 安徽教育出版社“...，难怪有许多“好的德国人”，比如像海德格尔，会把柏林看成是现代的巴比伦而不愿去住在那里。

”1.关于柏林1）作者说：哈斯出生在布拉格，最后却完全认同柏林，他在那里以写电影评论成名，同时编辑《文学世界》（Die literarische Welt）杂志，然后“我发现我所认识的柏林人很少是真正在柏林出生的”。

不过，“只要好好用力呼吸柏林的空气，很快就可以成为柏林人”。

哈斯深爱柏林，这个城市让他变得多愁善感：“我特别喜爱柏林女人机灵快速的说话样子，也喜欢剧场、酒馆、街上以及咖啡馆里人们那种敏捷反应的样子——那种凡事无所谓却又认真专注的姿态，整个气氛是那么可爱迷人，冷静却不冷淡，一种说不出的机动性感觉，他们热爱工作，随时准备接受重大打击——然后再继续生活”2）茨威格记载了通货膨胀时期的柏林：“柏林，”他写道，“已经转变成为全世界混乱离谱的中心，酒馆和许多游乐场全都在一夕之间关门大吉，我们在奥地利所见和这里相较，简直就是小巫见大巫，这说明德国人是如何爱搞怪和多么变态，许多弄成柳腰细身的男孩子，乔装成女人在大街上招摇过市。

每一位高中学生都想在外面赚外快，在阴暗的酒吧里，我们可以看见高级公务员及高级财务官员和一些喝醉酒的税收肆无忌惮地打情骂俏。

及时古罗马时代秀多尼奥斯（Suetonius）时期的众酒徒狂欢清洁，都比不上这里化妆舞台的嚣张淫乱，许多男人穿着女人的衣服，女人穿着男人的衣服，在警察的仁慈目光下，若无其事般滑着舞步。

这真是价值崩溃的时代，连许多想来号称秩序最稳固的中产阶级亦难幸免，一样跟着一起疯狂。

许多年轻女子都骄傲选成自己是性倒错，在柏林的学校里，一个16岁的姑娘如果被怀疑仍保有童贞，会觉得是一件丢脸的事情。

”2.关于青年及传媒青年（右翼青年）,......，结果都会是他们牺牲自己的青春并把自己束缚在政治冒险和狂乱的意识形态上面，或是伪装成新形势的老式工业和军事官僚机器上面。

“年轻人导出乱闯，追随错误的神和领导者，但还是坚持像追寻清明和精神的律则。

”“然而，这些年轻人身处杂音、冲突的诉求方针、纳粹的血腥集会以及共和的病态环境当中，他们如何寻找到清明和精神的律则呢？

大众传播媒体，特别是电影，只是徒然引发混乱。

”作者接着举出《大都会》的例子，并认为其只能算是一部“缺乏想象力的狂想影片”，“只讲究画面构图，内容却十分贫乏空洞”。

“父亲的复仇和全能的母亲，可以说是魏玛共和时代最常见的两大重要主题，而此两者对年轻人而言都是深具破坏性的”作者提到著名的宣传家和出版家苏尔坎普（Peter Suhrkamp）描绘并指出了父亲复仇的必然结果：“这些年轻人的思想都是一些经过伪装的本能冲动，在他们的讨论之中，把个人的观念引申成为世界观”。

然后，他们努力攀附于英雄崇拜，“没有英雄他们就觉得自己一无是处、无所适从，但是他们从来不了解什么是困难，什么是危险，以及什么是现实的冷酷法则”。

总之，他们根本还未真正长大，现在，由于精神和经济的需要，他们就投向反知性的行列，把思想看成是无能的象征，所以对自由主义的党派不屑一顾，然后聚集在平凡而可靠的保护伞地下，他们喜欢“被训练、然后随时准备为命令他们的人效命”。

他们欠缺的是一种“真正的革命观念”。

然后作者写道：“这是1932年魏玛共和的真实处境：清明的视野和政治的无能、恐惧、怀疑以及非理性希望的时刻。

表面看来中产阶级的政治人物仍在运作他们的政治，但对其他人而言，危机实在已经迫在眉睫”3.最后一章的最后一段章最后一段几个月之后，希特勒成为德国的总理，魏玛人开始四处逃窜，身上带着魏玛精神，逃向伊索寓言式的放逐，逃向死亡的终结阵地，有的自杀——在柏林的公寓里听到敲门声后的自我了结，或是在西班牙的边境上，或是在巴黎租来的公寓里，或是在瑞典小村庄里，或是在巴西的某个镇上，或是在纽约的旅馆房间里。

当然还有许多其他的人带着魏玛精神继续活着，活出一番伟大的事业，有的在实验室，有的在医院，有的投向新闻事业，有的在剧场上，有的走入大学的学术园地，在各自放逐的他乡异国，让魏玛精神真正开花结果。

本书遗憾的是：目录对应章节处有一段文字那段没在正文中找到。

那是：创伤需要时间去治愈，并不是摇旗呐喊就能治疗创伤。

真正的进步依赖“木匠按部就班地工作，铁匠拿着铁锤不停敲打，还有商人仔细算计等等”。

这一段写的亲切朴实，又谦卑。

书后附录有魏玛共和的政治简史。

如果想了解相关时期一些内容，此书可略作浏览用。

精彩！

偏悬疑向的历史剧。

时间定位在一战和二战之间过渡期的德国，ptsd的男主、贫困又坚强的女主，胶片、黄金、谋杀并行的故事线。

多条故事线交织，不经意间串联在一起，细节处理得超好，情节又毫不拖沓，干净利落。

官二代男主，背负着战争的创伤、从小不被家人喜爱、深爱的女人嫁给了自己的哥哥、哥哥失踪后又跟嫂子来往，但是不狗血，大胆看。

可以说看过最菜的男主了，又菜又牛逼说得就是他了。

当然，真的很帅！

不过我最爱的其实是男主和嫂子的信件独白，饱含深情。

贫困线挣扎的女主，白天在警察局打零工、夜晚去酒吧跳舞自愿营业接客。

还没有一丝希望的时候，就可以为了理想独闯现场查案，也能够为了养活家人去风月场所。

某种意义上来说，我觉得这才是真正意义上的大女主。

说实话，我不知道如果放到国内的大环境下我能否以同样的态度去看待女主，但是在巴比伦柏林这部剧，在那个风雨飘摇的时代，可以理解，也不觉得女主做妓女对不对、道德不道德，毕竟生存是第一要义。

经济衰退、通货膨胀，社会最底层的男人很难找到工作，而女人能用以谋生的手段更是极为有限。

在风月场所挣钱，但又没放纵自己、沉湎于金钱。

苦吗？

是苦的，前两季女主经常顶着两个大大的黑眼圈，常年睡不了觉，甚至有时候只能去电影院过夜。

但是在女主身上，你很难去看到那种常见的怨天尤人，反而觉得这些都难不倒她。

因为觉得自己可以做到，不断为进入谋杀组努力，而当时警察局默认的规则是女人只能做打字员。

乐观坚强、果断大胆，而且非常富有生活智慧，能在细节处发现不寻常。

去光脚溜进女伯爵家里和自制记者证探访火车站真是又勇敢又机灵。

男女主之外，其他的演员也都各有故事。

用好人、坏人来评价剧里大部分的角色有些过于武断且潦草了，人性的复杂，在这部剧体现得淋漓尽致。

除了情节设置和演员演技，整部剧的画面、配乐也很美且非常贴合情节，值得一看！

目前一二三季优酷都有，我个人认为第一季和第二季最好看，几条故事线和人物的处理都更为饱满。

相比较之下，第三季略显单薄而且走向到了对犹太人的屠杀显得有些沉重，不过也是很优秀的剧集，一般水平之上。

第三季还有几个伏笔，所以也可以再期待一下第四季，不知道能否重回前两季的水准。

每当看历史剧的时候，是真的会感受到人性的光辉与丑陋、人性的复杂。

历史不再是教科书上的几句话，剥离开标准答案，每个人可以对历史可以有不同的、更为丰富、更全面深入的认知。

原来一战二战之间的德国有魏玛共和国，原来早期德共和纳粹有过交叉、德国和苏联有过诸多交易、苏联内部也有派系斗争，原来当时的德国也有一部分人为了阻止二战而作出过努力……经济和政治也是很难分家的。

总之，不想看书的时刻，看看剧也很好！

当然，能看书总是更好的。

看过暗黑 我们的父辈 之后 就对德剧很感兴趣 加上最近开始学德语 开始了疯狂刷剧的阶段这一部其实看完了 整体的完成度感觉没有上述两部那么高 又或者因为第二季紧随其后 所以有一些情节留在第二季了也未可知 但是第一季看完 似乎觉得哪里还没有完成的样子 很多谜团没有解开 （当然 有的是因为我自己脸盲没看懂也有可能）mark一下问题 第二季重点看一下：1.亚美尼亚人（黑帮？

酒店老板）为什么对男主没下狠手呢？

他和精神病医生是什么关系？

为什么要换男主的药？

想治疗他还是让他回忆起什么东西？

2.女主到底喜欢谁啊？

好捉急啊 女主的好朋友感觉是个伏笔 应该会探听到什么了不得的消息然后在女主的解谜环节里起到重要作用3.比划哑语那个小哥身上是不是也有什么秘密？

4.女歌手背叛革命的原因是啥？

本来就是间谍还是后来背叛的？

她换了号牌 是有能把黄金运出去的计划吗？

5.火车事件整理一下：德国老兵一伙人 用火车走私毒气（到德国？

）中间被俄罗斯人截胡挂了一节黄金准备运到伊斯坦布尔 那他们是怎么得知走私火车的具体时间的？

谁是走漏消息的人？

6.老年探长到底是什么立场？

他可信吗？

7.男主的兄弟到底死了没有？

嫂子的娃娃是男主的还是兄弟的？

想到了再补充感觉那个年代真的是混乱 又贫穷 又富有 富人的餐厅和现在的五星级酒店没什么区别 穷人挣扎在饿死的边缘 女主的价值观也挺有意思的 白天做文员 对什么都有好奇心 喜欢破案 也聪明 但是晚上去灯红酒绿的世界里 用身体换钱的时候也完全没有道德的约束感 而且一点不客气的把自己朋友也往场子里拉 而且朋友拒绝下海的原因并不是道德困境 而是身体的残缺 感觉那个时代的人 真是又开放 又保守 要恶补德国历史了

Lotte worked part-time at the police station;6. Lotte worked illegally at a nightclub;II. Plotline from four perspectivesi. Retrieval of the erotic filmEdgar the Armenian was the local gang leader, whose business included a high-end restaurant, a night club MOKA EFTI, escort services (which was under protection of Wolter), pornography production, narcotics and so on. Anno was his drug supplier and private doctor; the Father was his enforcer. Anno lured Gereon to Berlin by having Kornig make a film of Gereon’s father. Father would definitely want the film destroyed, but he wouldn’t be able to do so himself, so he would send Gereon to Berlin, which was exactly what Anno was betting on.Gereon came to Berlin, and was receiving psychological treatment from Anno. It is presumed that he got to know Anno through Edgar. And Gereon’s dealings with Edgar was still not clear.After Gereon came to Berlin Anno told Kornig to destroy the film, for its mission was completed. After that Anno would only have to let Gereon chase his own tail to keep him in Berlin. But Kornig did not destroy the film, and in a police raid, Kornig was taken into custody, and Franz was threatened into cooperating. If Gereon got the film, he might return to Koln immediately. So Anno asked Edgar to send the Father to take care of Kornig, and asked Franz to take the film from the production factory, and keep it in Edgar’s private room. During the raid, Franz tried to escape and fired a shot at Gereon from a Lignose. Wolter took the Lignose and pried out the spent bullet for Gereon.From the spoils of the raid, Gereon learned from the one piece of negative where the film was made from the resident photographer Graf; he tracked down the film factory, and knew that Franz was the one picking up the negative. Gereon and Wolter took Franz into custody. In turned out Franz suffered from PTSD as well, and was also under care of Anno. In custody, Franz suffered from withdrawal, and finally gave away the location of the film.Franz lured Edgar out; Gereon sneaked in the private room and took all the films and Edgar as hostage; in the chaos, Gereon shot Edgar in the hand, but let him go after they reached safety.Gereon and Wolter destroyed all the films and went to celebrate in a night club. Edgar had his hand treated at Anno’s, and sent the Father to pick up Gereon and take him to Anno’s. During session, Gereon escaped and killed the Father in pursuit. ii.

His day job was a violinist, and sometimes he played at MOKA EFTI. His lover Svetlana let out that her family had a train full of gold and she was willing to devote the gold to Fourth International. Fourth International ambushed a train outside Berlin, and added the train of gold to it. Fourth International personnel personated as train staff and drove the train into Berlin. Meanwhile, Fourth International in Berlin forged necessary papers for the train of gold to be diverted to Istanbul, only that Svetlana filled in Paris as final destination. On the other side, Svetlana ratted the Fourth International to the Soviet embassy in Berlin, and their base was raided and all but Kadakow were butchered. When the train arrived at Berlin, Svetlana tried to take control of the gold, but the driver Boris would not cede control. In struggle, Svetlana was arrested and Boris escaped. After one night in a cell, Svetlana was released. She went to the train yard and switched the number tag on the train with gold. Kadakow escaped the slaughter and went to Svetlana’s. He was persuaded of Svetlana’s innocence, only to be double-crossed again.Boris went to Kadakow’s apartment, but Kadakow no longer lived there, it was Gereon’s room by then. During struggle, Boris dropped the cargo papers under Gereon’s bed. By the time, the Russians were waiting for Kadakow outside the apartment. When Boris emerged, they took him instead. After torture, Boris told the Russians about the gold. But he only told them about a train with gold in it, without telling them the number of the train. BUG: Boris was there when the ambush took place, and therefore he should know the number of the train with gold. And the Russians did not get it out of him. After escaping from death for the second time, Kadakow went to Edgar for help. He told Edgar about the gold, and the gang members raided the train yard at night. Only that Kadakow open the wrong train and was poisoned by phosgene. BUG: the train with gold was added at last, and therefore it should be the last train car of the whole train. Even without the number tag he should know which train to open.iii. The movements of the Reichswehr;Key members of the Reichwerhr: Major-general Seegers, WolterThe Reichswehr had been smuggling phosgene and weaponry into Germany through Nyssen’s company; they had been training armies against the Versailles treaty with the help of the Russians. Note that Premier Hindenburg the State Secretary Wendt acquiesced the Reichswehr’s activities. When the Reichswehr was smuggling a train of phosgene into Berlin, at a check point General Seegers signed on a paper in order for the train to pass. The Reichswehr would want the train be released and moved to another location as fast as possible. But the Russians detained the train claiming there was a train car of smuggled goods and should be found out and returned to Russia. But before the Russians could find out which car, the gang raid happened, and the fact that the train was full of poisonous gas was known to the police. Benda, a social democrat, was determined to bring down the Reichswehr. This gas event provided the best opportunity to investigate into the Reichswehr. But since the police did wrong during the May 1 riot, the Russian ambassador used it as leverage, and asked Wendt as intermediary to make the police let the whole train be returned to Russia.It turned out that Svetlana and Nyssen was in bed first. She knew his company was smuggling through freight trains, and that was when she came up with the idea of smuggling the train with gold into Berlin. But she could not do so alone, so she hooked up with Kadakow and used him to smuggle the train with gold into Berlin. In this phosgene matter, Nyssen became the scapegoat and was forced out of the board of his company and he desperately needed a feat to regain Reichswehr’s good graces; Svetlana was desperate not to let the train back to Russia, where it would be out of her reach forever. So Svetlana told Nyssen about the gold, and Nyssen told Wendt; and the three of them together with Wolter, they came up with a plan to intercept the gold outside Berlin. In the meantime, the Reichswehr was conniving to initiate a military coup and force Hindenburg to step down. They planned to assassinate both German and French Foreign Minister. Their plan was thwarted by Gereon, and the coup was a failure.iv. The movements of the gangThe gang had to do with the porn film, but basically it was Anno’s doing. Besides that, Edgar meddled with the gold business. After Kadakow opened the wrong train, Edgar still did not give up hope on the gold. A guy from the train yard told him that Lotte knew the whereabouts of the gold, so he abducted Lotte the pressed her for information. BUG: how could Edgar be sure that Lotte knew the whereabouts of the gold? v. The movements of Gereon and Lottea. Gereon went to Berlin to find that film, which was accomplished;b. During the May 1 riot, Gereon and Wolter knew the police wrongly shot civilians. Wolter wrote the report in the police department’s favor with a straight face. At first Gereon did not think this was right, but he would not want to help the communists either. At the end Wendt offered him a position in a secret internal affairs department, and he made up his mind to protect the police department. Therefore he perjured at the court. But this brought grudge from the communists. When they were about to lynch him, Edgar appeared to took Gereon to Anno. That was when Gereon remembered that he abandoned Anno in the battlefield, and that the doctor was none other than Anno himself. c. Boris was taken by the Russians after he broke into Gereon’s room. The next day Boris’s body was in the morgue. Gereon decided to investigate the murder. Lotte was at the morgue with Bolm, and Gereon mistook her for an official member of the police force. He decided to use Lotte to get inside info on the case; and Lotte thought if she could help solve the case, she might be able to join the force as a criminal assistant. Gereon and Lotte got Svetlana’s address from Kadakow’s belongings, but it led nowhere; after another check of Kadakow’s belongings, they found the band Kadakow played violin for. From the band leader, they knew the base of operation of Fourth International. Lotte and Janicke went to the place, where the slaughter took place, but it was already scrubbed clean; all they could find was a fake document stating that a train car was bound for Istanbul, which was also a dead end. Lotte asked an assistant criminal pathologist Rudi to dissect Boris’s body, and learned that he was a railway worker. Lotte went to the train yard, just in time to see Benda seized control of the train after the poisonous gas situation. Lotte called Gereon to the scene, and from then on, Gereon worked with Benda to bring down Reichswehr. Later, the slaughtered bodies of the Fourth International members were discovered. Wendt used the May 1 deaths to make Zorgiebel let go of the train as well as turn a blind eye to Reichswehr’s activities; but Gereon and Benda used the slaughter to press the Russian ambassador to give away files of Reichswehr menbers. d. As a Reichswehr member, Wolter wanted to know what Gereon was doing in Berlin, so he threatened Lotte to spy on Gereon. Wolter knew that someone close was spying on him, but it turned out the spy was Janicke, an assistant, who was spying on behalf of social democrat Benda. Janicke knew Wolter was conniving to intercept the gold, but his cover was blown, and was silenced by Wolter. But unluckily, Wolter used the Lignose to kill Janicke; and Gereon switched the bullet he used to kill the Father with the one fired from the Lignose. Therefore, Wolter knew Gereon killed the Father, and Gereon knew Wolter killed Janicke. e. Gereon learned that Janicke was spying for Benda, and that he had a notebook that could hold important info. Gereon stole the notebook from Wolter’s home study (nice long take) and gave it to Lotte to decipher. But Lotte was abducted by the gang and pressed for info. Lotte deciphered Janicke’s notes, and told Edgar about Reichswehr’s plan to intercept the gold. f. While Lotte was absent, Gereon and Benda were busy compiling evidence to bring down the Reichswehr. But the premier only gave them little time to interrogate the suspects, and then they were released. The first thing they did after the release, they undertook to overthrow the government by a military coup, which was stopped by Gereon. After that, Benda wanted to hold a press conference to expose the Reichswehr’s criminal deeds, but was ordered down by the premier. g. After Lotte was released, she and Gereon went to pursue the gold even without back up from Benda. Wolter and Reichswehr were waiting, but were mostly taken out by the gang; then the gang were knocked out by Gereon’s colleges. Gereon and Wolter found the gold was indeed coal, and Wolter was killed during escape. QUESTION: if Gereon really did find the gold, who would he give it to? Because among all the people who wanted the gold, Svetlana, Reichswehr, the Russians, the gang, none of them was the rightful owner of the gold. h. Benda was killed by an IED planted by the Nazis with the help of his maid Greta who thought her lover, an alleged communist Fritz was ‘killed’ by the police for stirring up disturbances. And Wendt too Benda’s place and made Gereon secret internal affairs officer. Lotte was officially enlisted as a criminal assistant. vi. Sub-plotsa. Lotte found a job at Benda’s house as a maid for Greta.b. Fritz was a Nazi, but he blended himself in the protesters of the May 1 riot, trying to find an angle, which was none other than Greta.c. Gereon slept with his former landlady Elisabeth.d. Helga had something to do with Nyssen.e. Moritz had the potential to become a Nazi.vii. Conclusions: their missions and endsGereon: a. to retrieve the film and destroy it: accomplished;b. to investigate the murder of Boris and the Fourth International members: not accomplished; c. to bring down the Reichswehr: not accomplished;d. to thwart Reichswehr’s assassination: accomplished;e. to bring the killer of Janicke to justice: accomplished, in a manner of speaking;Lotte:a. To become a formal member of the police force: accomplished;III. Review i. About the May 1 riot, of course the communists couldn’t win, because whatever the police did, they have the law on their side. ii. Honestly, there was no surprise that Gereon perjured before the grand jury. His loyalty was indeed frail, but helping the communists would do him no good either. If he helped the communists, he would become a traitor of the police department; besides, the communists would not thank him for helping. iii Gereon and Helga kind of remind me of Jack and Marilyn. But they are distinctively different. Yes both women were not loyal, for they both left the man of their heart for the brother and or money and status. But Jack would not have Marilyn back even if his brother was dead; Gereon and Helga? They couldn’t wait to be together again once Anno was declared MIA, not to mention that Gereon left Anno for dead in the battle ground. So it makes Jack a man of responsibility, of high morality, with a line in his mind that he would not cross; and it makes Gereon a weak-minded, morally disoriented and depraved man. It might look like that Gereon is loyal to the police department, in that he wouldn’t turn on his fellow officers, wouldn’t let Wolter get away with killing Janicke or conspiring to kill high ranking dignitaries; but what if the police department is led by other political forces? Such as the Nazis? I suppose as a Jew he would actually take part in persecuting the Jewish.

第一次看德剧，而且在一天内飞快追完第一季，实在太想分享这部剧了。

这部剧从剧名上来看，Babylon，巴比伦，乍一看很快就能联想到四大文明古国古巴比伦，关键词有奢侈繁荣黑暗糜乱等等；和Berlin并列，恰好可以暗示1929年柏林的情况。

说实话，囫囵吞枣看到最后一集，才慢慢品味出一部分剧情，但概括起来也很简单，主线故事是来自Köln的警官二代男主小泪沟（要是不抓住他的部分特征在一堆男演员里我真的辨认不出来）来到Berlin帮助他父亲寻找并销毁记载着德国正在参加选举的高级官员丑闻的录像带，副线是他正好也碰上了在Berlin活动的第四国际的地区领导人为支持在土耳其的领导人而运送一大笔黄金、各派产生了斗争。

1929年的柏林是什么情况，我看完剧以后狂补历史，豆瓣里有写的特别全特别好的，我就不班门弄斧了。

了解了历史以后，我更感兴趣的是剧里对此进行的阐释，豆瓣里有一个概括非常恰当：满目疮痍的世界里的众生相。

Jeder einmal in Berlin，每个人都该去一次柏林，但是这时的柏林是什么样子呢？

我倒觉得，有点类似于中国晚唐时期的长安：繁华背后是满目萧然，有点长安十二时辰的意思了。

还有一点我个人印象较深的是，不细细看下去，你永远不知道每个人究竟是什么样的，但是，反过来说，就算是看下去了，人，也不能定性或好或坏。

这个剧，细细的线索太多了，人物之间的关系一眼看不完，我才看完第一季，还有第二季，真的是很有意思的剧啊。
