量子资源网提供本资源 <> Released in France as La Kermesse Heroique, Carnival in Flanders is set during the long-ago war between the Dutch and Sanish. A tiny village in Flanders is invaded by Sanish troos. The townsfolk have heard of Sanish cruelties in other towns, and decide to deflect the vanquishers by laying dead. This isn't terribly effective (you have to take a breath once in a while), so the wife of the burgomaster tries to soften u the invaders with a lavish carnival. So successful is this venture that the Saniards allow the village to escae being decimated, or even taxed. An award-winner many times over, Carnival in Flanders was banned in Germany; evidently, Goebbels caught on that director Jacques Feyder and scenarists Bernard Zimmer and Charles Saak were drawing deliberate arallels between the Sanish and the then-burgeoning Nazis.
