回复 :2019年东京国际电影节主竞赛单元的最佳影片!丹麦日德兰半岛西北部小镇里,克莉丝与轻微中风行动不便的叔叔相互照应,一同在牧场工作与生活。两人生活虽偶有琐碎的争执,但日复一日,平淡无奇。当克莉丝面对翩然降临的爱情,以及有机会实现的兽医梦,她与叔叔该如何调适各自的状态,给彼此一个喘息的空间?电影平实且细腻地呈现规律平凡的日常,近乎固执地逐步叠加叔姪俩冲突又高度依赖的关系。存在世界各地的农村现况,年轻世代面对离乡与否的抉择,亲情与梦想能不能兼顾?从人物的情感出发,深刻勾勒一个不同于哥本哈根都市面貌的丹麦故事。「我母亲的亲戚都生活在农村,我希望透过电影呈现丹麦农村的真实样貌。饰演叔叔的演员,他真正的职业是农夫,电影中的农舍是他真正的家;两位主要演员,在真实生活中亦是真正的叔叔和姪女。我希望我电影中的角色,能尽可能真实、原汁原味地贴近地方,说当地的语言。」──费雷彼得森

回复 :"The Witch Burnt Alive"After a very long, but visually arresting animated opening credits sequence, Luchino Visconti (Death in Venice) directs the first story, which is the longest of the five, taking approximately a third of the film's running length. Mangano plays a superstar actress and model who travels to a mountain resort, only to find the well-to-do inhabitants have prejudices and preconceived notions about her based on her public persona. The women are all jealous and the men all want to sleep with her, but all Mangano wants is to be left alone. It's a mostly somber satirical piece, but story-wise, it languishes in its modest idea a bit long, becoming inconsequential to all but those fascinated by the realities of being famous."Community Spirit"Bolognini's piece isn't really a story. It's more of a visual gag, in a short segment that features Mangano offering to take an injured man to a hospital, driving him at breakneck speed throughout the city, but not stopping at locations where he might find aid. I won't give away the punchline here, but it succeeds in being amusing, even if it's the kind of thing that only is interesting the first time through."The Earth Seen from the Moon"The esteemed writer/director, Pier Paolo Pasolini (Salo), crafts the middle segment, which is the most artistic and memorable of the five. Reminiscent in style to "Don Quixote", a recently widowed father and his son travel around the country in search of a new wife and mother, and after a long period, they discover the literally speechless Mangano. She brings joy into their lives, but they are poor, and in order to find a better life for themselves, they concoct a scheme to try to make some quick cash. The story is contrived, and not completely interesting, but the outlandish performances, artwork, and costumes does evoke great charm and likeability. Although mute, it's probably the most appealing of Mangano's five performances, and Toto is terrific."The Sicilian"Franco Rossi directs the fourth an shortest piece, a straight-forward revenge story that comes and goes before it ever has a chance of becoming interesting. It's violent, but easily the least satisfying of the five stories."A Night Like Any Other"Eastwood's appearance is clearly the biggest attraction here, which was filmed in between the Sergio Leone "Dollars" trilogy. It's an enjoyable departure from his normal roles, playing a comedic romantic lead, and he is affably fun to watch. Famed Italian director, Vittorio de Sica (The Bicycle Thief, Umberto D.) does a masterful job with the story, which perfectly blends the mundane and the fantasy in a visually satisfying way. The story is about a bored housewife (Mangano, of course), who tries in vain to get her husband to realize that he is not as romantic as he used to be. The scene is interspersed with comedic romance sequences revolving around the couple's past romantic interludes, and dreams of how their lives should be.
