　　Based on an unknown Schönberg opera from 1929, From Today Until Tomorrow explores one night in a not-quite loveless marriage. A husband and wife return from a party where she has flirted with another man, while he has cast an appraising eye toward an attractive, fashionably dressed acquaintance of his wife’s. Though each dreams, briefly, of leaving the marriage for the excitement and mystery of a new lover, in the end they decide stability and comfort are more important than the fleeting thrill of new romance. Directors Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet, who previously collaborated on two other films about music (The Chronicle of Anna Magdalena Bach, 1968, and Moses and Aaron, 1975), rely on long fixed shots in austere black-and-white so that the focus remains on the musical brilliance of Schönberg’s atonal score, performed here by 70 musicians. That Schönberg would choose such a relatively lighthearted message for his newly discovered musical language remains a mystery, especially since the conclusion reached by the husband and wife—to stick with the tried and true—seems directly at odds with Schönberg’s own philosophy of composing. It is just this juxtaposition, however, coupled with Straub and Huillet’s faithful presentation, that makes the opera a compelling addition to the Schönberg canon—and the film such a challenging and intriguing experience.

　　在准备结婚周年旅游的男子布兰登发现，自己的妻子似乎出轨了。伤心之余，布兰登邀请最好的男性朋友丹一起到泰国完成预定的旅游。在泰国，经历了系列自然美景和社会人物经历后，终于开始从悲伤中醒过来，勇敢面对妻子的出轨。影片最后，布兰登准备打电话和妻子联系。
　　整个片子就像是一场泰国旅游片，对泰国的美景介绍颇多。导演似乎很喜欢猫，影片中多次自然地或者不自然地出现。电影中间还放了多首比较好听的、忧伤的歌曲。
