"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
多出来的40分钟得到了精致的埋线和铺垫，也带来了刻意和冗长。
陀螺总喜欢拍耸人听闻的故事，而且就怕不够耸动。影片前多半部分带来的不确定感都在Stan身上，之后他的底牌被挖掘尽，故事张力被转交给Lilith。陀螺对暗黑异色的不知魇足就像Stan一样，一定要把故事推向更紧张的高潮，却也让自己无路可走，一个循规蹈矩的结尾甚至有了一丝说教意味，最后的自毁宿命搬到来，只想让人说句俗气。WOT
意外的投入进去，凌晨四点看完，人生就是一场“骗局”，我们用我们的五官感受这个世界之后对世界的体验，只不过马戏团，心理咨询的职业更极致一些，挑个时间看原版，然后，再来看。
值得称道一点的就是光影和凯布的表演……有些故事属于写了开头结尾就已然注定了。库珀之于本片男主约等于大本之于gone girl男主——气质是服帖的演技是没有的
I like how fate has bounded the characters together. The final act is gripping to watch. The shots in the film look beautiful, but Mr. del Toro has failed to impress me with his yet again thinnly written characters.
2022年第34部：其实还不错啦，很吸引人的故事，没有倍速看完，原版太久远应该不会看。
谎言是走向地狱的捷径，贪欲是走向地狱的通行证～
没抱预期，没想到能看进去。剧本老一套，完全由叙述语气撑起的电影。
1.只有我觉得凯特和布莱德利之间一点性张力都没有吗 2.理解马戏团的个人趣味大展演，但是全片两个半小时确实用不着
可能是没看过老版所以主观上对整体故事有很强吸引力，所谓老酒换新瓶，看人手法不看原始配料，所以想起几年前老头也有一部《魔力月光》比这部轻松惬意多了~
陀螺的电影美学一如既往的无可挑剔完美至极，不知道是不是太沉溺其中马戏团部分拍得过美过长，即使已经是离谱的150分钟后面依然来不及好好讲了，故事剧情人物塑造全崩了。不忍给差评，拍得真的太美。
没看过原版，但Cooper和大魔王对手戏有点东西，所以后半段i住。前半段马戏团的剧情太长了，废戏挺多，删个半小时就好了
这次不志怪反而选择志人的Guillermo del Toro明显不够得心应手，阵容很豪华，故事却没有什么新意，实在想不出翻拍的必要在哪？
都1202年翻拍70多年前的片子了，那不精致点还能说的过去吗？给R级加一星，搭配不搞预言，搞人物前史的一小笔冲出了更浓的精神分析味儿，男主的悲惨宿命已经不是当年的自我发现和救赎，而变成了当今时髦的自己作的活该。
前半部挺有点林奇的诡调感，但影片也因此显得割裂，如果说前半段是主人公必不可少的前史，那么最后的回归又使得后半部分像是个插曲。两部分分别对应两个女性，都着了笔墨，可都太浅，本是两个极富魅力的角色却各自黯淡。括弧式的结局草率得有些敷衍，不过但也真是疯的令人唏嘘。（戒酒宣传片
后半部分节奏把控得很好，明知道where it would go我们还是不由自主地屏住呼吸。
镜头用的很讲究，画面隐喻，伏笔埋得也好。不知道为什么打低分这么多；电影还得在大银幕上才有效果出来。一点都不拖沓。主演很不错。凯特布兰切特和威廉达福的戏很足很足。都是大腕儿。值得冲奥。
哈哈哈，有趣到谈不上，一直挺替这些人着急的，最后才是老板该有的样子嘛，而阿拉伯人才是一个员工的角度该有的样子啊
《昨天》里面贾宏声承认自己没有外国血统，我觉得悲怆；这部片中他承认自己born for it，我只觉得滑稽。
故事背景,还有细节都很有意思. 一点点魔幻的感觉. 只是故事讲的稍微匆忙了点. 再铺垫的扎实点,估计会很不错.
