影片以18世纪罗马尼亚的地下秘密组织“兄弟会”为线索，欢迎该组织密谋推翻贵族政府为目的。影片拍摄时期为罗马尼亚共产党执政时期，欢迎对“兄弟会”进行颂扬。当时的罗马尼亚受到法国大革命的影响，民族主义运动兴起。片中的“兄弟会”酝酿发动革命推翻贵族统治，而黄玫瑰则帮助 “兄弟会”与贵族军队作战。影片本来要拍成《007》那样的系列电影，但是因为后来罗马尼亚政局变化，电影业私有化，最后只拍到了第八部。影片风格是美国西部片式的。男主角马尔杰拉图神出鬼没，神勇无比，为“兄弟会”出生入死。他不停地嗑瓜子动作，成为他的招牌。扮演马尔杰拉图的演员叫弗洛林·彼耶尔西克，据说，他在罗马尼亚电影表演界的地位，与现在的罗马尼亚电影创作协会主席塞尔裘·尼古莱斯库相当。片中的黄玫瑰很像个美国牛仔。比如，他的枪法很好，还会趴在地上听马蹄声，而且片中还出现了西部片必然会有的场面：群马追击四轮...
回复 :"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
