''A Year in the Death of Jack Richards'' is a 2005 psychological drama from Canada starring Vlasta Vrána as the titular character, a professor of theology, who ''may or may not'' have made himself the target of a supposed cult, whose members then worship him for a year so that they may kill him as an atonement for their sins. It is the debut feature film from Canadian director B. P. Paquette, and co-stars Micheline Lanctôt, Harry Hill, and Darryl Hunter. Presented at numerous film festivals in countries from around the world, and honoured with prizes and accolades, ''A Year in the Death of Jack Richards'' absolutely polarized critics when it was released in commercial theatres. 〔http://www.aivf.org/magazine/2011/09/Sudbury_Cinefest_Benjamin_Paquette_%28Non%29_Fiction〕〔http://ayearinthedeathofjackrichards.com/〕〔http://www.thesudburystar.com/PrintArticle.aspx?e=3300152〕 ''A Year in the Death of Jack Richards'' is the first panel in Paquette's triptych on ''the psychology of romantic love'', followed by ''The Woman of Ahhs: A Self-Portrait by Victoria Fleming'' (2008), and ''The Anonymous Rudy S.'' (2016).〔http://www.thesudburystar.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=2770031&archive=true〕 ==Interpretations and allusions== Blurring the lines between reality and non-reality, ''A Year in the Death of Jack Richards'' is an open-ended film that is vague and evasive but completely up for discussion. In interviews, Paquette has stated that it was his intention to make a film that was wide open to a variety of different interpretations. Even Vlasta Vrána, who played Jack Richards, said, “Don’t ask me about the film because I don’t know anything. I know what got me through making it, doing my part. () I had the story, I had the idea of what it is, I know what I took as my motivations—I know that the story is much more complex than what I took for myself.” 〔http://www.thecoast.ca/halifax/you-dont-know-jack/Content?oid=1016796〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「A Year in the Death of Jack Richards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
