Français
Cinq regards latins et non des moindres sur la survivance de la sorcellerie dans l'Italie contemporaine. La femme est tour à tour vamp au ventre rebondi par une grossesse, égoïste inconsciente dédaignant un blessé pour ne pas rater son rendez-vous, sourde-muette irréprochable.

Italiano
Cinque novelle umoristico-grottesche sul tema della donna fatale, tutte con Silvana Mangano. 1) “La strega bruciata viva” (di L. Visconti con M. Girotti, A. Girardot): attrice cerca un'improbabile tranquillità a Cortina e scopre di essere incinta. 2) “Senso civico” (di M. Bolognini con A. Sordi): ricca signora raccoglie un camionista ferito, ma si preoccupa soltanto di non essere in ritardo a un appuntamento. 3) “La Terra vista dalla Luna” (di P.P. Pasolini con Totò, N. Davoli): vedovo sposa la sordomuta Assurdina che, per racimolare qualche soldo, inscena un suicidio al Colosseo con esito tragico. 4) “La siciliana” (di F. Rossi con P. Tordi): l'orgogliosa Nunzia provoca una faida. 5) “Una sera come le altre” (di V. De Sica con C. Eastwood): una moglie trascurata dal marito sogna di far l'amore, acclamata, in uno stadio.

Español
Film dividido en cinco episodios protagonizados por Silvana Mangano. En "La bruja quemada viva", de Luchino Visconti, una estrella de cine atraviesa una crisis emocional. En "Sentido cívico", de Mauro Bolognini, Un hombre (Alberto Sordi) sufre un accidente de tráfico y Silvana Mangano se ofrece a llevarlo al hospital en su coche. En "La Tierra vista desde la Luna", de Pier Paolo Pasolini, Totò se ha quedado viudo y busca una mujer para él y una nueva madre para su hijo. En "La siciliana", de Franco Rossi, se narra una historia de seducción, abandono y venganza típicamente siciliana. En "Una tarde como las demás", de Vittorio De Sica, una mujer está más que harta de su aburrido esposo (Clint Eastwood).

Magyar
A film öt, különböző hangvételű epizódját Luchino Visconti (A boszorkány, akit élve elégettek), Mauro Bolognini (Polgári szellem), Pier Paolo Pasolini (A Föld a Holdról nézve), Franco Rossi (A szicíliai szépség) és Vittorio de Sica (Egy este, akár a többi) rendezte.

Pусский
Это коллекция из пяти независимых киноновелл, снятых пятью режиссерами — классиками итальянского кинематографа.

Deutsch
Episodenfilm von fünf italienischen Meisterregisseuren zum Thema "Frau". Unter der Regie von Vittorio De Sica, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Luchino Visconti, Mauro Bolognini und Franco Rossi spielt Silvana Magnano fünf völlig verschiedenen weibliche Charaktere. Für Visconti etwa porträtiert sie ein ausgebeutete Filmdiva, für Pasolini ein taubstummes Mädchen...

Português
Cinco histórias diferentes que tem como tema a mulher na sociedade.

български език
„Вещиците” не е толкова цялостен филм, колкото по-скоро колекция от пет новели, всяка направена от различен италиански режисьор и всяка с участието на съпругата на продуцента на филма Дино Де Лаурентис, Силвана Мангано. Както при повечето филмови антологии, резултатът е и успешен, и не чак до там. Има някои интересни моменти, но доста ограничени от липсата на дълбочина и сцепление, с които ни радват обикновено пълнометражните филми. Ценителите на Силвана Мангано навярно тук ще и се зарадват най-много, но ако чакате да видите Клинт Истууд в една от ранните му роли, ще се наложи да изчакате близо 75 минути от началото, защото той се появява едва в последната новела на филма, „Обикновена вечер”.

Nederlands
Vijf verschillende verhalen over heksen. In "La Strega Bruciata Viva" nodigt een prachtige actrice de pers een paar dagen uit in een hotel in de bergen. De mannen daar adoreren haar en de vrouwen zijn jaloers. In "Senso Civico" komt een vrouw vast te zitten in het verkeer door een ongeval. Ze besluit de gewonde man naar het ziekenhuis te brengen. "La Terra Vista dalla Luna" gaat over een rouwende vader en zoon die een vervangster zoeken voor hun overleden vrouw/moeder. Ze vinden een doofstomme vrouw die aanvankelijk uitstekend voldoet. "La Siciliana" gaat over een vrouw die onrecht is aangedaan en haar vader die de wraak op zich neemt en in "Una Sera Come Le Altre" klaagt een vrouw steen en been over haar saaie huwelijk tegen haar echtgenoot.

한국어/조선말
1967년 개봉한 코미디 옴니버스 영화이다. 다섯 편의 에피소드로 구성되어있으며, 각 에피소드를 다섯 명의 감독이 연출하였다.

普通话

Polski
Producent Dino de Laurentis, mąż Silvany Mangano, zamówił u kilku reżyserów szkice scenariuszy, w których aktorka znalazłaby pole do popisu. Tak powstał film, złożony z pięciu części, zestawionych dość przypadkowo, które łączy osoba głównej wykonawczyni. Określenie "czarownice" w tytule użyte jest w sposób daleki od dosłownego i ma wyrażać ten czynnik kobiecości, który dla mężczyzn pozostaje nieodgadnięty i pełen niespodzianek. Nowela 1: "Czarownica spalona słońcem" ("La stregha bruciata viva") - Luchino Visconti; Nowela 2: "Postawa obywatelska" ("Senso civico") - Mauro Bolognini; Nowela 3: "Ziemia widziana z Księżyca" ("La terra vista dalla luna") - Pier Paolo Pasolini; Nowela 4: "Sycylijka" ("La Siciliana") - Franco Rossi; Nowela 5: "Wieczór jakich wiele" ("Una sera come le altre") - Vittorio de Sica.

A "La Terra vista des de la Lluna", de Pier Paolo Pasolini, Totò s'ha quedat vidu i busca una dona per a ell i una nova mare per al seu fill. A "La siciliana", de Franco Rossi, es narra una història de seducció, abandó i venjança típicament siciliana. A "Una tarda com les altres", de Vittorio De Sica, una dona està més que farta del seu avorrit marit (Clint Eastwood).

Don't Look NowThriller1973

Working with elements of the traditional horror genre - second sight, ESP, warnings from the dead, a mad killer - and cinematography of disquieting beauty and dreamlike sense of dislocation, director Roeg weaves a fabric of anxiety that questions all reality. The evocative use of the back streets of Venice is a sinister participant in the action based on the novel by Daphne du Maurier. This intensely erotic and macabre film boasts outstanding performances by Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland.
