"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
如果死去女主的父母是平凡老百姓。这个案子还能彰显正义吗？
KC不做对家做同场；庭审与勾心斗角得个样。脉络散乱不成章，气势未聚过早泄。最有趣处实则应在方生的小手段和智叔的大决意，但最大篇幅却落点于相互勾结的阴暗处。阴暗并非不足道，但起势凶得仿佛要谴责些什么，还不如闭嘴好好做戏。戏如人生，戏没做好，谈什么人生？
并不感觉很烂，也算是智叔的一部遗作，不得不说，智叔演技一如既往的好，尤其是在游艇上的戏，真是很强势，表面上最后是正义战胜了恶势力，但没有智叔饰演的这个角色最后怎么也圆不回来了，庭审戏拿出赵警官录音真是让我出乎意料，还是金钱战胜了权势。方中信最后的那番话也很有韵味
结局不应该是，富一代干点权一权二然后自己当选么？
太过理想的反博一击，顺利制服富家子，匡扶正义。
香港一帮老戏骨撑着勉强看完，剧本不够扎实...可惜这强大的卡司，为廖先生勉强3星
最后是一位有权有势的打败了另一位有权有势的，太残酷了……
黑暗的黑，让人无法想象。是呀，当你的power越大，是弄权还是担起那份深深的职责。现实与理想的矛盾，无解。印象最深的是，方中信说，我一定要她在一个是非分明的社会里长大。
过程粗暴的不行，最后挽救了一点。
有点老套，在各种题材各个角度都被电影拍过的情况下，如何能推陈出新呢？
感觉像没有高潮，就很平缓的叙事，最后感觉还是资本家的胜利，如果不是有钱的爸爸，真要制裁有钱权的人，估计真会像隔壁沉默的真相那样惨烈吧，害
觉得还不错啊，不知为何评分这么低。看的粤语版。
7/10.
感觉好久没有看过这么精彩的法庭戏了。而且还是智叔的遗作。
-要是被控老爸凶残点
床戏很清楚。他们喜欢女上么？
一、搅屎棍英国的律师都不戴假髮了，这些外貌是中国人的法律职业人员还戴着可笑的东西。
结局方中信大哥的发言实在是太官方了。前面都还ok，但是很多细节都缺失，看着不够过瘾。
三、香港必须广泛建立中共基层党组织。
怎样定义“公正”，每个人的角度不同，答案也很可能是不同的。法律是有不完善的地方，也有徇私枉法的官员，但法律必须要发挥衡量公正的天平作用，而不是靠某个人用职业经验的“小聪明”来维护，那是对“公正”非常危险的“挑衅”。
