"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
一个狭小的场地进行广大空间的叙事，人多而不杂乱，事多而有序井然，第一次看到这样的舞台剧，没有繁杂的舞美，没有奢华的舞台，而演出了精彩的故事，大开眼界，大吃一惊！佩服佩服！
很巧妙的剧情和舞台设计，有很多戳泪点的地方。虽然是20年前发生的事情，在20年后的疫情下居然也让人产生了奇妙的共鸣。扣掉一星是因为我觉得每个演员分饰很多角色这件事容易影响观剧感受，虽然看得出来每个人的每个角色已经尽量有明显的区别，但还是偶尔会跳戏。太想现场看音乐剧了，那种体验是看任何电影和电视剧都给不了的

他说他是岛民！I'm an Islander. I am an Islander～很优秀的音乐剧了
这是人类互助的时刻，这是悲伤的时刻，这也是欣慰的时刻。
编排太牛，节奏太紧密，简直有点目不暇接了。
看音乐剧真的能让我感动生理性的愉悦 并不是什么需要拆解钻研的深奥主题 也没有复杂的情感层次 爱 感动 一些主旋律的关键词 永远可以相信百老汇的演绎 对于美国的文艺作品非常钦佩的一点就是正视创伤的勇气 We honor what we lost we commemorate what we got. 很喜欢Dover Fault的片段 大陆汇聚又分离 但总会留下痕迹 正是脚下的这座小岛 自然的洪荒 时间的绵长 和你我的命运如此交织在一起。
下回去纽约 晚上啥也不干 把各种正在上演的百老汇全部撸一遍
20 years after thank god kindness still wins
小舞台，省演员，12人个个分饰多角，营造出人声鼎沸之感。技术上节奏明快，过场如飞，毫不拖泥带水，却一点也不突兀，有非常高水准。故事上就是一报告文学，却让人看得津津有味，灾难之际陌生人似乎更易释放善意，写得足够细腻。当然对于遭受更多苦难与灾难的人群来说显得似乎有些矫情。
最感动的几个moment和唱段。他们铺起毯子开始祷告的一段。👮飞行员的唱段，Me and the Sky - Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky. ✈️ 返程飞机上的唱段，Somewhere in the middle of nowhere, you've found your heart and left a part of you behind. 💦 分别的唱段，Something’s missing. 👨🌾 岛民最后的唱段，Tonight we honor what was lost, but we also commemorate what we found.
喜欢到说不出话来 又好笑又好哭 最喜欢的就是女机长那幕了
8.5分 ATC加成0.6分
被女主的solo吸引着看了，然后发现讲的完全是不一样的事，是关于911发生后数架飞机紧急降落在纽芬兰岛上的故事。笑话尴尬，歌曲没有记忆点，总之好无聊。

热血沸腾，哽咽多次，无论这个世界有多么糟糕，还有音乐，真是件幸运的事。表白女机长！
我想在global pandemia面前这部剧的意义无需多言，在这个时间点放出官摄我哭到时代广场都有回声。
看完后，国内的音乐剧差的不是一点，唉～还怎么进剧场！！
