An epic poem of the Italian countryside at the end of the 19th century. The whole film is performed by local farmers, which is cordial, simple and natural. However, the lines are obviously recorded later. Emmanuel Olmi's early works are based on realism with a bit of stream of consciousness, which is "psychological realism". The film is slightly different from its previous works. The plot still does not have much fluctuations, but it uses a traditional narrative technique, with just a few...

Life is like a long and quiet river, endless, reincarnated in the four seasons, and permanence of the heavens, overflowing in an oil painting-like lens; although the tone is quiet and simple, the light, tones, and composition are very delicate, and the audio-visual language is quite rich; it contains the meaning of religious compassion. A hymn to the land, an epic in the country; the most beautiful ones are wooden shoes, babies and weddings, "Go to find a lover in heaven, and heaven is born in...

#SIFF# is about the documentary life of poor peasants under the oppression of landlords. With the blessing of beautiful photography, it makes people feel mixed feelings. The simple photography is a beautiful rural scene like an oil painting. The three-hour scattered plot shows the kindness of the farmers and their hard life. The tragedy in this beauty is so realistic, which makes people feel even more depressing. It should be the highest level of prose movies, and the director's super control...

1978 Cannes Film Festival Best Film Palme d'Or. The film depicts a picture of the poor and hard life of rural peasants in northern Italy at the end of the 19th century. The documentary-style video style, the outstanding performances of the actors, and the beautiful and moving scenery and human feelings have become the masterpieces of life-flow movies.

Through the description of the natural landscape + the group portraits of the people working in the medium and long-term perspectives, the imitation of the ancients is realized, which is close to the texture of oil paintings. Record people's busy and repetitive work, reflecting the "Bible" emphasis on labor as a privilege bestowed by God. In the life of a small group, people rejoice and celebrate the birth of a new life, spontaneously form a common life contract, tacitly revere nature, and...

Olmi absorbed all the virtues of Neorealism, and even shot this poetic film with Visconti's aesthetic, full-length oil painting-like photography that casts a historical trace on the Italian countryside at the end of the 19th century. Different from the feeling of "Milan Heart" that incorporates the left bank, this one is more like inheriting Vigo's poetic realism, and what Olmi is best at is recording ordinary life, it seems that those ordinary days are also available under his lens. With a...

The father lifted the son whose shoes were broken and put him by the fire to keep him warm; the young man followed the girl silently, and finally said good night softly; the mother said to the elder brother who was eating: The priest said, we can send the child to the orphan go to the courtyard. The elder brother said: I can work day and night and leave them at home; men and women sing songs to break corn and plant rice seedlings; children happily do farm work; perseverance and silence are the...
