这是一部很特殊的战争题材电影，它真实地描写了德占区人民的悲惨遭遇和场面，以及人们面对突如其来的灾难的恐惧，反映了战争的真实面目。它既不同于《斯大林格勒保卫战》、《攻占柏林》这些正面战场的血肉横飞、排山倒海、摧枯拉朽，也不同与《这里的黎明静悄悄》、《星》所描写的局部战斗中体现的平凡悲壮，更不是战地浪漫曲，而是降临在平民百姓头上血淋淋的残酷。影片的事件和恐怖场面远超过任何一部描写德军集中营的电影，令人毛骨悚然，提醒胆小和心软者慎看。

能力卓著但作风粗暴的橄榄球队教练怀特（凯文·科斯特纳 Kevin Costner 是），因一次暴力事件而被所在高中开除，而他的“恶行”也使得其他高中对他关上了聘用的大门。万般无奈之下，怀特来到加州一个贫穷偏远的小镇麦克法兰，在当地的高中任职。这座小镇居住者大量来自墨西哥的移民，他们贫穷、粗粝，与大城市的孩子们截然不同。尝试着改掉暴脾气的怀特，只想尽快回到城里，好让妻女的生活得到改善。而就在此期间，他发现了这群墨西哥少年在长跑方面的天赋。为此，他想方设法说服了校长、学生以及学生家长，组建了这所学校第一支长跑队。他的初衷也许只是以此当做跳板，却不曾想因此改变了自己和孩子们的人生…… 　　本片根据发生于1987年的真实故事改编。

In the time of Counter-Reformation, a miller and his son come under investigation by a priest of the Inquisition, when rumors spread that their prosperity comes from working with the Devil. 　　The Devil's Trap is a film directed by František Vlá?il, based on a novel by Alfréd Technik, adapted by František A. Dvorák and Miloš Kratochvíl. It was the first of three historical dramas that Vlá?il made during the Czech New Wave (technically he isn't really a part of the New Wave, however these films were made during the same era of artistic freedom), preceding his more well known Marketa Lazarová (1967) and Valley of the Bees (1968). 　　Set in the late 16th Century during the Catholic Reformation, in the Moravian Karst, situated in what is now the Eastern Czech Republic, it tells the tale of a miller (Vítezslav Vejrazka), and his son Jan (Vít Olmer), who come under suspicion and are investigated by a Jesuit priest of the Inquisition (Miroslav Macháchek), when rumors of witchcraft are spread by the local regent (Cestmír Randa), who is jealous of the miller's prosperity and degree of respect among the local populace. 　　As expected from Vlá?il, this film is a stunning experience all the way through. From the opening shot, an ominous manipulation of perspective with a close up of a mangled figure of Christ dominating the foreground against a tiny figure in black walking along the horizon, to the breathtaking confrontational finale inside the vast stalactite filled Karst caverns, it is a wonderful display of visual mastery. 　　Maybe not quite as impressive as Marketa Lazarová, but still full of astonishing imagery. As seen from unique angles and distinct points of view which highlight the director's remarkable sense of awareness of framing, motion, and positioning on the emotional and dramatic tone of the scene. The most memorable being a repeated shot where the camera is suspended and launched with speed through the air towards the miller's door. 　　The story here is a simple one and I would say more accessible than his later works. With a conventional structure emphasized as much by its plot and characters, than by its expressionistic cinematography or authentic historical detail. The events play out without much surprise, and there is a strong underlying, almost supernatural, mysterious aspect that is left unresolved, in fact barely explored, which is slightly disappointing, but only because it's so fascinating that I wish there was more. 　　Acting is great all around. Particularly the villains: Miroslav Macháchek as the priest, casting a sinister and imposing shadow wherever he goes, and Cestmír Randa as the weasel like regent behind all the persecution. While Vít Olmer brings a charismatic leading man presence in his role as the miller's son Jan, in love with the lovely orphan girl Martina (Karla Chadimová), who becomes a dangerous object of rivalry between Jan and other young men of the village. 　　The film also features the evocative music of Zden?k Liška (perhaps the most prolific composer of the Czech New Wave). In this his second of eleven collaborations with Vlá?il, his compositions are used sparingly, but to great effect, complimenting but never overpowering a scene. The best example of which can be heard in an amazingly shot celebration and dance sequence at the end of the second act. 　　The Devil's Trap might not be a masterpiece, but it is still a strong effort, with a fascinating straightforward story and a glorious historical setting captured beautifully by Vlá?il's unmistakable visual prowess. A fine work that would also be the perfect starter plate to prepare yourself for the challenging feast of Marketa Lazarová or The Valley of the Bees. It even has an easy to digest running time. It's therefore puzzling why this gem remains largely overlooked and ignored.
