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.。Mark哥（周润发 饰）和志民（梁家辉 饰）是堂兄弟，两人是越南华侨，现正在香港发展。岂料越战打响，两人都十分担心仍然居住在越南西贡的志民的父亲松叔的安危，为了凑足钱将志民父亲接到香港，两人决定帮当地黑帮走私军火到越南。岂料他们在越南遭到了丧邦的伏击，关键时刻幸亏香港黑帮老大的女友英杰（梅艳芳 饰）及时相救，两人才幸免于难。逃过一劫的三人在西贡渡过了一段快乐时光后，英杰辞别了两人。随后Mark哥和志民将松叔顺利接回了香港。回港后，两人过着安稳平静的生活，只是一直都没有打听到恩人英杰的消息。突然有一天，英杰出现了，重逢令三人都十分开心。只是，一场祸事也在悄悄逼近……。
