电影与《尼伯龙根之歌》之间的一个重要情节出入

特地去看了下尼伯龙根之歌的梗概（wiki）大部分印证了我的猜想，电影中不合理之处都有了更合理的解释。其中最重要的是：Sigfried 当晚睡了 Brunhild，而 Hagen 为了保卫国王的荣誉而杀死 Sigfried。

However, on their wedding night, Brünhild suspects something is amiss with her situation, particularly suspecting Siegfried as a potential cause. Gunther attempts to sleep with her and, with her great strength, she easily ties him up and leaves him that way all night. After he tells Siegfried of this, Siegfried again offers his help, proposing that he slip into their chamber at night with his invisibility cloak and silently beat Brünhild into submission. Gunther agrees but says that Siegfried must not sleep with Brünhild. Siegfried slips into the room according to plan and after a difficult and violent struggle, an invisible Siegfried defeats Brünhild. Siegfried then takes her ring and belt, which are symbols of defloration. Here it is implied that Siegfried sleeps with Brünhild, despite Gunther's request. Afterwards, Brünhild no longer possesses her once-great strength and says she will no longer refuse Gunther. Siegfried gives the ring and belt to his own newly wed, Kriemhild, in Chapter 10.

如此也不难理解为何众人力保 Hagen，最后一场戏为何成了德意志民族的赞歌。

第二部总的来说比第一部精彩不少，前半段非常棒，情节紧凑。但是出现匈人后（和匈奴不一样，有兴趣可以翻翻 wiki），欧洲中心主义思想就很明显了，打戏更是扯得没法看。

看看将近100年前的大片，其实还和现在挺像。演员的表演和剧本相对弱了不少（和同期展映的《大都会》《玩家马布斯博士》比的话），场面和服装特效等成了大看点，倒也是讽刺。
