Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzSentimentalizes the peasants to the point where we're left looking too much at peasant culture as if this were a travelogue.
User Review - 10/10 by Dylan Das Pmuy bonita esta pelicula, bien enmarcada en la italia fascista, me tramo un resto el arte
User Review - 10/10 by Private UUn film (tres) austere et envoutant, dans une province italienne reculee pendant la guerre.
User Review - 10/10 by Nick MFlixter provides no synoposis, so I'll provide one: A writer is exiled to the Italian south in the mid-1930s by the ruling Fascist government of Italy. There he develops a relationship with the community of peasants who have been shunned by Italy and the world.... Christ stopped at Eboli is a beautiful film. It deals with the glimmer of hope Levi brings to the peasant community he finds himself in as he crosses the barrier between the North and the South, and the rich and poor. However, unlike the way I'm making it sound, the film has a far more subtle and complex beauty in its style, directed carefully and thoughtfully by Rosi, and also encompasses a genuinely endearing Italian humour and presenting a moving spirit among an abandoned community. Fantastically performed, lovingly filmed and genuinely moving. Wonderful. A tragedy that according to Flixster 91% aren't interested...
User Review - 10/10 by Michael SThe greatest and most beautiful film of Francesco Rosis career with yet another superb performance by Gian-Maria Volonte.
User Review - 10/10 by Rick LA wonderfully observed, quiet beautiful film telling the story of Carlo Levi's exile to a Southern Italian town. Probably far too slow and short on plot twists for most - but it rewards the audience with great cinematography and character observation. The conversations between Levi and the Fascist mayor are excellent. Highly recommended.
User Review - 10/10 by Nellie K. Agreat movie and book. I liked it very much and how they portrait the southern Italian as uneducated and very superstitious....
User Review - 10/10 by Stefanie COutstanding in every aspect. Cinema at it´s very, very best
User Review - 8/10 by Laura E[font=Century Gothic]"Christ Stopped at Eboli" takes place in 1935, just as Italy under Mussolini has invaded Ethiopia. Carlo Levi(Gian Maria Volonte) has been exiled to a remote region of the country for political reasons. He is accompanied by a stray dog, Barone, he meets along the way. He is not the only political prisoner there but he is not allowed to talk to any of the others and his movements are restricted. Overall, he makes the best of a bad situation - painting, writing letters and even taking up the practice of medicine which he once earned a degree in but never practiced.[/font] [font=Century Gothic][/font] [font=Century Gothic]"Christ Stopped at Eboli" is a touching and excellent movie. It is still timely in its discussion of dissent in time of war. I liked that Levi spends most of the film just observing the peasants without comment. The Fascists feel they are superior to the peasants and seek to dominate them but the peasants are the lifeblood of the country. [/font]
User Review - 8/10 by Russ HVolonte is on form as the exiled Carlo Levi. Rosi evokes the kind of grim fortitude of southern Italy masterfully.
