In turn-of-the-twentieth-century Turin, an accident in a textile factory incites workers to stage a walkout. But it's not until they receive unexpected aid from a traveling professor (8 1/2's Marcello Mastroianni) that they find a voice, unite, and stand up for themselves. This historical drama by Mario Monicello (BIG DEAL ON MADONNA STREET) is a beautiful and moving ode to the power of the people, brimming with humor and honesty. THE ORGANIZER (I COMPAGNI) features engaging, naturalistic performances; cinematography by the great Giuseppe Rotunno (AMARCORD); and a multi-layered, Oscar-nominated screenplay, by Monticello, Agenore Incrocci (THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY), and Furio Scarpelli (IL POSTINO).
