Las películas de Ermanno Olmi suelen ser crónicas exhaustivas y minuciosas de la realidad de un personaje en circunstancias ordinarias. Allí radica la grandeza de su cine, generoso y detallista en la descripción de ambientes y personajes de todos los días. Los Novios es un maravilloso ejemplo de esta forma de asumir el hecho cinematográfico. No dejen de ver sus obras maestras El empleo y El árbol de los zuecos.

During the first eight or nine minutes, you don´t hear a single word spoken, but then, you don´t hear much conversation during the whole movie anyway. Filmic simplicity taken to its peak. And talking about tall things, this is one of the greatest italian movies of the post-neorealism era. Another thing. Olmi is regarded as a practicing catholic. Despite this, his point of view is undoubtedly marxist.

Absolutely beautiful. I love films that set out to tell a simple story but do such a fine job of it. The opening first ten minutes or so are grand. The way it is shot to tell emotions without overwhelming us with words. Very nice contemplative touches. VIva italiano cinema!

One of the most tasteful and powerful expositions I've ever seen. Olmi is a new hero.
