"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
太棒的一个电影了！我们不要剥夺身体享受愉悦的权利！大胆的去享受吧！
我看的这一版中英字幕做的很舒适但是有不少错译，看完之后要养家禽的，大概率是看歪了。片中虽然有性，有交易，但却不是性交易，非但不是，而且是对立面。性真的是很复杂，涉及到如何看待自己的身体，如何觉察到自己的真实感受与情感，以及如何接纳自身，游走其中或掌控自如，涉及到个体的尊严，更进一步，以此为镜面，如何尊重与感受他人。记得有一项研究讲罪恶是因为缺少同理心，我看伤害他人究其根本还是缘于内心痛苦；而想要快乐也不是简单的事，不然亚里士多德也不会写本尼各马可伦理学专讲幸福生活。可以肯定，如果人人都能从身体到精神不依赖他人感受到喜悦，就不会有犯罪。但是没可能，人类从野蛮走来，只能缓慢进化。所以才会有各种机缘的互相点化，以意想不到的方式各自成长，失落的一角变成大圆满... 热死我了
把“失足性工作者”想像的太美好了吧？心理治疗加服务？
男主好美，但是有一种无人气的瓷娃娃的感觉……而且为什么做鸭还要当心理医生？ 活着好累，我今天好累，我也不喜欢我自己的身体，我不喜欢我的一切。
塑造出完美的“性幻想”，以此为切入口探讨我们身上的束缚、本能、救赎欲、控制欲，所有一切我们认为可以通过外在的某物实现的人生满足心魔其实都在于自我接纳的困扰。电影以猎奇和欲望引入，最后还是归于学院派般的存在主义讨论倾向，枝桠工整之余少了点意外。
从第一次被动地被爱抚到第二次主动的触摸，她终于感觉自己的心跳，一种眩晕的感觉让她窒息，感觉自己是活着的。人要如何诚实地对待自己年老的身体，如何真诚地面对不同阶段的自己，一生的课题。（我们需要高素质性工作者和告高素质客户，这证明全民教育很重要：）
不过不失的话剧电影，表面开放其实内核保守得像美国人写的剧本，相比之下几年前Sally field那部Doris倒显得大胆了。
Inspiring！非常好，细腻又有趣，剧本和表演都相当不错，温柔而有力量。有勇气把女性的欲望和自我矛盾拍得这么真实生动，向艾玛汤普森致敬！Ladies, go get yourself a proper orgasm!
雖然有時候覺得Nancy真的patronizingly didactic，但本質上卻是對身體和愉悅的本性和途徑的探討。鏡中日益老去鬆弛的身體，連自己都棄若敝屣，又如何指望別人能愛上呢？在年齡、性別、身分甚至技巧方面的自卑，Emma用教科書般的分階演繹因材施教，坦誠相待，把自己全身心地交付出去，還順帶處理了親密關係和原生家庭問題，Once & more!
剧本过于工整了，还有汤普森阿姨这惊天一脱，我的妈呀！[B+]
女人在性上的禁锢太深了，这是社会给我们扣上的，也是我们自己扣上的。希望我们不需要等待老去的时候才敢去解开它。
The toy will make it sooo much easier, but it will also deprive the fun of interaction and the feeling of being wanted by someone. However, what are the chances of meeting a top tier escort just like Leo? I think I will pathetically stay with the toy…
认识自己，认识自己的身体，最后时刻保持某种界限
抛开现实讲，影片里展现出来的真的是高素质、高情商、暖暖的善意和真诚

她说“身体只是我们的一个容器”，她让我们看到，即使容器中盛满了一生也可以如此轻盈自由
还挺喜欢如今自己的观影习惯：因为豆瓣八点多的高评分而产生兴趣，并在对影片基本未知的情况下直接找来观看，然后，没想到女主角竟然是艾玛·汤普森，没想到讲述的是这样的“情色”故事，想起，之前有刷到与本片相关的新闻，但那时并没有细看，所以对这部影片的了解才会如此之少，最后，又一次收获到如“开盲盒”般的惊喜观影体验。
无论怎样还是重拾美好
如果说Daryl的肉体惊艳了我，那Emma的演技则让我佩服到五体投地...how could she be so perfectly beautiful, vulnerable and satisfied at the same time...Emma身体上的每一条皱纹都让我看到了岁月能带给人的智慧和美好
看完感动了，对服务生坦白后那一整段都很有劲。orgasm的镜头也太真了吧。
