《土地与自由》是乔治·奥威尔关于西班牙内战的回忆录《向加泰罗尼亚致敬》的影像化。西班牙内战是二十世纪最为错综复杂和耐人寻味的战争之一。这场战争是第二次世界大战的前奏，法西斯主义、共产主义、无政府主义等多种人类未来的可能性在这里碰撞、激荡；这场战争也是斯大林主义和托洛茨基主义交锋的余音，西共和马克思主义统一工人党从携手并肩的战友最终变为不共戴天的仇雠。这场战争是残酷的，大规模地虐杀战俘、屠戮平民屡见不鲜，从格罗尼卡的街道到阿拉贡的群山，白骨盈野
我一直以为盎格鲁撒克逊男人到异乡为弱小民族求解放顺便睡下当地女人的故事仅存在于我等第三世界国家，却没想到他们对第一世界其他种族一样如此。
片名叫“土地”与“自由”。然而除了一处比较深入探讨土改问题的辩论以外，整部电影其实都在叙述一场跨国恋情。而且这个恋情既和“土地”也和“自由”一点关系没有，放在任何一个其他时空背景之下都会被立刻解读为盎格鲁萨克逊男人对他国的精神猥亵。有趣的是
I am no great fan of youthful idealism, but I must confess to a secret fascination of the Spanish Civil War. If you share this interest, and/or my other, more reluctant admiration of the early Chinese Communists, the this film is for you, too.
Nothing kills a movie about idealism faster than a Utopian, absolutist tribute to a perfect ideal. This film, fortunately, manages to steer clear of the usual temptation of idolizing the youth, and their dreams of liberty and equality. We are shown the mundane stuff these lovely men and women are made of: not too smart, not so pure, not always steadfast, but nevertheless take us in with that honest urgency, that earnestness of doing good, which looks and feels both alien and touching to us pettite bourgeoisie, with our petty ambition and white-washed materialism.
《土地与自由》品质炸裂的战争片 中国完全可以翻拍
