"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
第一次看舞台剧 ，而且居然还是在网上。刚看的时候眼花缭乱有点接受不了，看到后来感动地不行。里面地真情实感，比电影震撼多了。
疫情前买好的池座巡演票因为疫情而取消，最终在2022年国内疫情再次抬头的时刻把官摄看完。It's a story celebrating humanity, and no one is an island. 是的, no one is an island. 希望早日看上现场版。w /Cloudy.
几个人，一个舞台，几把椅子，表演出了地球村的感觉，回到那个充满关怀和温暖的年代，美中不足是没有亚裔的演员，少了点什么
天下没有不散的筵席
#How a small island changes the world when the world is on the edge of falling.
Idealism of all time.
前边半个小时是零碎着看完的，所以感受不是很强，后面的部分，感觉慢慢好了。我觉得音乐蛮棒的，灯光运用也恰当好处，在有限场地上，人物的安排、运动都挺好。让我感触的不是所宣扬的人性善，而是人生的世事无常。相遇、离开，得到、失去，一切都变了，一切好像又没有变化。“Something's over, somthing's done, something's missing, something's changed, something's rearranged, something’s strained, something's lost, something's not”，所以我特别喜欢最后一切结束后那一段众人的表演。
演员太棒了
这种灾难背后，芸芸众生所呈现的善意和温暖，怎能让人不喜欢。
唉
舞台剧 适合一口气看完，服化道具细节 情感氛围演绎到位
官摄重刷，要不是这该死的疫情去年6月我就在现场……
仅仅拍摄完整的舞台演出，难道不是样板戏？除了时代所限，当年的蓝苹同志在这方面也做得不错了。只感觉是话剧，谁说歌舞片？跟比迪斯尼电影比起来，不过一锅清汤。歌舞起着渲染作用，并没有推动情节。故事只是讲911事件时迫降纽芬兰的多个航班，难道也是带着任务拍的？舞台上的演员有感染力，场景转换既快捷又流畅。然而，低调而艺术的表彰大会仍是表彰大会，看久一点就真没意思。[ZXZJ]
精彩绝伦！！！
7，感谢Apple，感慨舞台和音乐的魔力，故事简单风趣又真诚平实，歌曲稍逊色大概只有三首比较出色，同样是让几十年前的记忆保持鲜活，国内影视行业应该好好学习一下，911的影视舞台歌曲作品层出不穷，发掘新视角塑造真情实感很重要
12人抛开政治不谈，那种音乐带来的直接感受的激情！还是能让我们感受到作为普通人的感动！音乐剧给人很直接的感受！
他说他是岛民！I'm an Islander. I am an Islander～很优秀的音乐剧了
太好哭了。不论来自哪里 情感还是所向披靡（天才大礼包这个戏是 情感浓度过高了呜哇————
几千旅客因为911滞留小镇的故事。说是音乐剧改编但更像是音乐剧录像。情节简单，音乐不错。
天呐Jenn Colella的机长太帅了！
