Wikipedia article
'Not Reconciled' is a 1965 West German drama film directed by Jean-Marie Straub. It has the subtitle 'Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns' . The film is an adaptation of the 1959 novel 'Billiards at Half-past Nine' by Heinrich Bll.
Reception
Richard Brody of 'The New Yorker' reviewed the film in 2008: "Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the responseas much in style as in substancethat it demands."
