乔治·希顿编导的上乘战争片，剧情重点不是一场战役，而是一场布局精妙的心理战。剧情描述美国情报员杰佛逊·匹克在诺曼第登陆战前两天被德军绑架前往德国巴伐利亚。当派克从昏迷中转醒，发现他置身于盟军的一家医院中，而且此时战争已经结束，他还有了一个妻子叫安娜。精神病医生华特·格伯要跟匹克讨论他的失忆症，其实是想从他口中套出诺曼第登陆的军事情报。在关键时刻，匹克发现了这原来是一场骗局，乃跟德军玩猫捉老鼠的斗智游戏，最后更在格伯协助下逃回盟军阵地。悬疑性浓厚的情节始终掌控着观众的好奇心，三位主角詹姆斯·加纳、爱娃·玛丽·森特、罗德·泰勒也都表现出色，可惜压轴的逃亡动作戏拍得比较一般。

一場又一場災難與疫情後，越來越少人存活。Ｋ獨自走在空無一人的同志三溫暖。這裏曾如此繁華，如此張揚，這裏曾一切陰暗。空間裡頹敗潮濕的氣息瀰漫，人與人的肌膚觸碰似乎已是上世紀的傳說，只有一株老樹像是在此扎了根，伸出細瘦的枯藤，既渴求又仰望著什麼？導演周東彥以科幻奇想，包裹現代人困囚在疫世中被迫相互隔離的寂寞，試圖描繪在近未來的時空中，對與他者觸碰的渴望以及對自我無止盡的探求。

Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
