After watching it, I thought it was an epic film. It was very long, 5 hours and 15 minutes. The life of Italian peasants has never been known. When it comes to Italy, most people think of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, Roman Holiday, and at most Mussolini. Why Mussolini and Fascism? This movie seems to tell me. The lives of those Italians in 1900, the film spanned more than 40 years, and experienced two wars. The son of a peasant and the son of a landlord experienced things that their ancestors did not expect in these 40 years.
To be honest, I can't understand some places. The peasants gathered and sang at every turn. The singing moved me very much, but I didn't understand why the supervisors and the police were so afraid. The music left a deep impression on me. I looked for the soundtrack of the movie, but unfortunately there is no singing part.
