Product Information

THE TREE OF WOODEN CLOGS - CRITERION COLLECTION A painterly and sensual immersion in late nineteenth-century Italian farm life, The Tree of Wooden Clogs by Ermanno Olmi (Il posto) lovingly focuses on four families working for one landowner on an isolated estate in the province of Bergamo. Filming on an abandoned farm for four months, Olmi adapted neorealist techniques to tell his story, enlisting local people to live as their own ancestors had, speaking in their native dialect on locations with which they were intimately familiar. Through the cycle of seasons, of backbreaking labor, love and marriage, birth and death, faith and superstition, Olmi naturalistically evokes an existence very close to nature, one that celebrates its beauty, humor, and simplicity but also acknowledges the feudal cruelty that governs it. Winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes in 1978, The Tree of Wooden Clogs is intimate in scale but epic in scope—a towering, heart-stirring work of humanist filmmaking.

    Purchased City Hunter Season 3 DVD Complete Collection. Listing marked "Very Good" Condition. Minimal Seller Description. Purchased when Seller posted a Discount Price. Seller had 15-20 Neutral and Negative Reviews within prior 12 months at time of purchase, primarily related to items not delivered or damaged upon arrival from inadequate packaging. So I requested extra bubble wrap and/or a crush-resistant cardboard box for shipping. I hope seller improves packaging standards for future buyers.

    I RECEIVED THE DVD AND IT WAS AS STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION. IT WAS OF HIGH QUALITY, GOOD CONDITION. THEY KEPT THE COST OF SHIPPING DOWN AND MADE SURE THE PACKING WAS ENOUGH TO KEEP THE ITENS SAFE AND SECURE. THE VALUE WAS GREAT. THE APPEARANCE WAS AS GOOD AS IT WAS DISCRIPTION - VERY NICE WOULD KEEP IT FROM GETTING DAMAGED. I WILL SHOP WITH THIS SELLER AGAIN. A+++++++++++
