"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
麦克白的悲剧，重点放在“悲剧”二字上。基本上在黑白光影中将暗处的悲剧呈现出来，阴暗是绝对的黑，偶尔侧身时似乎还有光。大段大段体现矛盾心理的台词，给眼睛“窒息”感，很精彩、很累。极简黑白风又像杂志插画，略显刻意了。
莎翁原版古英语，黑白光影加象征性场景，完全是电影版舞台剧。华盛顿影帝级表演完全消除了黑人麦克白的违和感，弑君前的踌躇不安，称帝后的躁动癫狂，预言后的自负狂妄转换自如，不亚于话剧大牌演员。唯一可惜上限于此，不如真正去舞台上表演一把。
电影不同于舞台剧，可以画面表达的就绝对不要让演员用嘴去说出来。
丹泽尔华盛顿演得确实是不太行……灯光真漂亮，女巫那几场戏非常好。
像是一场无人问津的话剧被拍成了黑白电影，绚烂的词藻，夸张又惨白。
I dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do more is none，这句话我觉得可以概括全部麦克白想表达的内涵，最后一句不是要说没有人比我更男人/勇敢，而是说越界了他就走向了不是一个男人、一个正常人的limbo，这就是他的悲剧
3.5黑白光影运用，剪辑手法有特色。更多的像一出背叛，复仇的舞台剧。
不知道为什么大家对这部电影评价还挺高，有没有和我一样看不懂的，尤其黑白的片子，总感觉表现力没有彩色片好！也许我粗浅了！
形式上做到很多了
表现主义&极简风格。
莎翁的東西無論怎麼改也還是魅力永存。畫幅和黑白的復古設定更是讓影片有了一絲高級感。
科恩兄弟分开后就刻意去掉喜怒无常荒诞的命运巧合和暴力的黑色幽默了，唯一喜欢的就是古早味的美术摄影了。
感觉是看了无数个版本之后，最为精致和审美层面的最佳。构图布光和戏剧感台词对于演员的功力要求，都有做到满分。至于剧情不必苛责了，谁都知道的，就是看如何表现。
科恩这回玩极简风，突出演技，突出台词，突出摄影，灯光和舞美。简化场景，简化化妆道具，简化服装。要知道剧本是科恩强项，完全舍去，科恩在摄影和极简舞美上成功了。
宛如德莱叶回来拍了部《麦克白》，“先把那房间填满，然后一点一点的去掉”。没想到比15年那版还要极简风。
麦克白的故事改编的太中规中矩了，但是电影美学但是做到了极致，古典美的氛围拉满了，好像看一部伯格曼时期的看电影。
极简的布景与美到极致的摄影，倒是很好的呈现了舞台效果！让这部戏剧味更浓。而简化的剧情也使故事更紧凑 演绎得也很优秀
三星吧。我还记得第一次看《蜘蛛巢城》时的震惊。
将麦克白放入纪念碑谷？极简主义场景带来的效果就是更聚焦演员的表演，显然华盛顿撑住了，摄影也是极好，但也就这样了。
英语级别低者不友好，我就是。
