"Veteran experimental filmmakers Danielle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub helmed this unusual adaptation of a novel by Elio Vittorini. Focused on the triumphs and failures of a group of laborers and farm hands who pooled their resources to operate an alternative collective farm after the end of World War II, Operai, Contadini features a cast of 12 actors who read aloud from Vittorini's book for the duration of the film, either reciting from memory or using a clearly visible script. Hardly designed to be a crowd pleaser, Operai, Contadini proved to be controversial among the audiences for its showings at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, where it was screened as part of the Directors' Fortnight series." ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
"The group makes up a primitive community which seeks to erase not only the distress created by the war but also the hardships of life and hunger, and to protect them from violence, misery and fear. Amid the ruins of this post-war period, the characters build and invent a rapport both in their professional and daily lives between themselves, the sexes, generations, diverse social and geographical origins, and antagonistic political camps.
The group maintains a 'register', a kind of diary, as if it were entering the minutes of an inquiry or a trial." -Steve Grayson
"my favorite Straub-Huillet films are Too Early, Too Late and Operai, contadini (2001), both color landscape films with especially acute senses of place as well as of nature in all its harsh beauty." - Jonathan Rosenbaum
22.7.22 vie to ewr 1/4 另类公路片
老年牛仔的隨遇而安，品質不能說太好，情節衝突過於生硬，劇情也過於溫吞小品，但是情懷是有的，滿滿東木爺老牛仔精神揮發，收尾是美麗的，老牛仔孤單一輩子，值得人生第二春
就吵吵闹闹就过去了，这片子。看起来还是挺欢乐的，感觉叔叔永远是最惨的，姐姐永远是最酷😎的。
故事线太单薄了，老爷子又导又演实在有点力不从心了。
支离破碎，牵强附会。这应该是我看过的Clint Eastwood执导或出演过的最差劲的作品之一了。
这次终于没有人死了。近些年老东木的电影看起来是无限的套路，也充满着无解的人生选择题，就像他自己说的：你以为自己什么都懂，老了却发现什么事都没有答案，等你找到答案却为时已晚。在夜色中抽动嘴角哽咽着回忆自己伤心往事的画面好熟悉……
剧情不拖沓很紧凑，轻轻松松看完，带着一贯的亚当斯风格，星期三真的是永远的小可爱！很适合合家欢，全家都可以看的动画片。
有趣即可-09/29/21 at AMC Garden State 16
炒冷饭卖情怀…生硬插歌舞…总之不如之前几部。看的时候全程跟Wednesday一样冷漠脸(-_-)
喜欢亚当斯全家，愿在黑暗里真实，不在光明中虚伪，
挺好。还有风韵犹存的墨西哥老板娘在小镇开着店，“Until we find each other again.”全片也正如老爷子面对暮年的老狗所说： “我不知道怎么治愈‘老’，但今晚你们也许应该睡在一块儿。” 放下Macho的辉煌成就，让Cowboy好好地睡一觉吧。
故事有点散，有点像美国旅游宣传片，搞笑还是依然搞笑，就是情节一般。
91岁，要面对的迟缓、病痛、虚弱会使人越发察觉自己作为动物的一面，“我无法医治衰老”，但所有个体共享的“英勇”的品质，仍是有效的。
虽然故事太合家欢了，但是看到夫人和姐姐就很快乐
女孩青春期的迷惑和躁动，每个人都是独一无二的，有特点才是最酷的，不用强行融合
啊哈哈哈哈哈哈克苏鲁大战大鸡脖式出场就很搞笑
老爷子变温和了，给人的感觉就是，即便他还有话想说，但是也有点说不动了，干脆就编织一些童话般的美梦好了，for next generation。一趟明知终点却又中途停靠的旅程，是谢幕亦是启程，仅此已足矣。
治癒人心的西部童話，老爺子今次的處理可用「返老還童」來形容。
一家人环美旅游的公路桥段还是挺暖的，有时亲情甚至高于血缘……
