"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
在现在这个时刻，太需要这部音乐剧了。小镇人民敞开大门接纳受911事件影响的一架架飞机，女性男性同性恋、少数族裔、不同信仰的乘客一齐来到了小镇上，这一刻不再有性别与人种之分，面对突如其来的恐怖袭击，他们一同祈祷默哀，人们守望相助和惺惺相惜的状态太治愈人心了。现在世界正在发生剧变，宅生存成了普遍状态，可如果连人心都被锁进了幽闭空间，就挺绝望的。一人分饰多角的表演形式完美契合全剧的主题表达，而其中的个体故事也很有代表性，女机长唱的Me and the sky让人感动。小细节：演员在扮演汽车上的乘客时，身体会保持小幅度的晃动，非常贴近真实，好棒。不过一份分饰多角也会带来一个问题就是人物往往需要用念白的方式来解释自己的身份，剧中也有一段是人物发生争吵，但就匆匆带过了，没有正面解决，有点在意。
Something's found, but more thing's missing, lost and gone. 为人类面对灾难时的齐心协力同舟共济而无比感动，但那弘扬的希望在灾难的创伤面前是如此渺小，为由此而永远逝去的生命、撕裂的信任和激化的矛盾而无比悲伤。"How do I tell him I wasn't just okay, I was way better."
在如今全球lockdown的时期，“No man is an island"的颂歌显得尤为可贵。这也是我看过了布景、角色、场景转换最有创意的一部音乐剧了，虽然一人分饰好几角，但是个个都人设分明，没有一丝混乱。里面的不同种族、宗教信仰、性别和国籍的陌生人的碰撞和交往都是理想社会中才能达到的和谐。看到最后音乐剧中原型的人和演员一一合影的时候，一边哭一边觉得：哇，原来世界可以这么美好啊。
世界大同的感动，强烈地感觉到中国离普世价值越来越远了
宿命般的遇见。TV版居然切割成了几篇...
Me and the sky入坑的，其实除了这首其他的音乐很少，可以算是音乐最少的音乐剧了（不是）
这真的是我看过现场调度最牛逼的剧了。
歌好听 女性力量 布景简陋演员很厉害 但是政治正确观念输出令人反感
经常发现眼泪先于大脑感受到情感，或者情绪，我不懂。
真实事件改编，十周年的时候当着全村人表演个专场也太感人了吧，美式主旋律的正确用法。演员们一人分饰乘客和岛民，很考验基本功和调度了。
演员们太厉害了，全场无休息，一秒钟都不停的
音乐剧将可以情绪放大，人性之光在台上变得更加闪耀，于是我就每场都哭🥹
“Imagine there’s no heaven. Imagine there’s no countries.Imagine no possessions.It isn’t hard to do. ”不是吗？
911事件导致的连锁反应，人与人在危难之中的互助充分反映了人性光芒，政治立场就不太好评价了，毕竟是美国主旋律舞台剧。
最精彩的无疑是女机长的自白之歌。还是挺感动的，但作为一部音乐剧，说话太多歌曲太少，然后每个演员都担任好几个角色稍微有些混乱。还可以吧，但没什么惊艳之处。
People used to believe in this.
密集的台词和唱段、动听的旋律、热闹的舞步、简洁炫目的舞美、缤纷的笑料和点到为止的感人瞬间，百老汇太强了。女机长的solo曲目Me and the Sky进入单曲循环。
夸夸所有演员，基本都是一人分饰几角，不停通过衣着来区分角色，布景虽然只有简单的桌椅，但是结合转盘却运用的十分巧妙。
音乐也很棒！
我以为911题材会很沉重，但很积极很快乐啊，有细节有思考，转换很流畅，女机长太帅了。人与人之间的善意好治愈。
