	CNN - Review: Don't put colorful, Austrian 'Inheritors' out to pasture -- November 23, 1998
		"The Inheritors" is the story of a bunch of overworked peasants in post-World War I Austria who unexpectedly inherit a farm from their cruel master when somebody sticks his sorry ass with a knife one evening and kills him.
		Like "Days of Heaven," there are touches of magic sprinkled throughout "The Inheritors" (a lowly circus performer suddenly passes through the village with a huge elephant in tow), and sexual trysts in the haylofts are often motivating factors for the characters.
		In many ways, the theme of "The Inheritors" is the appropriation of power and the changes that can occur when people are suddenly allowed to take over the reins of their own lives.

	BBC - BBC Four Cinema - The Inheritors
		Jealousy, hypocrisy, greed and revenge run rampant on the farm in The Inheritors, a witty and often abrasive class satire from Austria.
		The peasants eventually overcome their initial fears to become "siebtelbauern" (one-seventh farmers) but their progress is jeopardised by some cloak and dagger activity from the enraged locals.
		A delirious modern spin on the 'Heimatfilm', a potent national genre, The Inheritors was Austria's official Oscar entry in 1998.

	Peter S. Alterman- Aliens in Golding's The Inheritors
		Neanderthal consciousness in The Inheritors is organic, growing out of the idea of a different consciousness, rather than being the product of a rubber mask or an unreasonable extension of one capacity, as is the case with many other science fiction aliens.
		Thus, the central concern of The Inheritors, introduced early, is an examination of two themes formerly considered the domain of pulp science fiction: the alien and telepathy, which together Golding uses to develop his observers.
		The purpose served by the alien beings in The Inheritors is, then, to comment upon the very nature of human modes of thought, perception, and behavior.

		The Inheritors, though set in Austria, is a throwback to the anti-Westerns of the Vietnam era, depresso-fests like Welcome to Hard Times and Monte Walsh.
		The Inheritors (Unrated; 90 min.), directed and written by Stefan Ruzowitzsky, photographed by Peter von Haller and starring Simon Schwarz, Sophie Rois and Lars Rudolph.

	Film & TV: The Inheritors (Austin Chronicle . 11-30-98)
		The villagers and the tight religious community are affronted by the inheritors' impudence.
		What The Inheritors adds is a sharp socio-political angle, crystalline images by cinematographer Peter von Haller, and engaging performances by this entire group of Austrian actors.
		The story meanders a bit in the latter third as the murder mystery plays more of a central role and characterization is emphasized at the expense of social analysis, but overall, The Inheritors is never less than penetrating, unusual, and finely achieved.

		Set in rural Austria in the early 20th century, "The Inheritors" is the story of a group of seven peasant workers who inherit a farm after the childless farm owner is murdered by a mysterious old woman.
		Sophie Rois gives a very strong performance as a tough and independent peasant with a young son who finds the courage to stand up to both the local farmers and her fellow peasants.
		Simon Schwarz is excellent as Lukas, the self-appointed leader of the seven inheritors.

		A few years later, when his share of the family business began to be liquidated, he was suddenly a wealthy man. By then he had earned another master's degree, this one in marriage and family therapy, and he was counseling welfare families outside Boston.
		He was a good example, in other words, of the modern inheritor.

		In The Inheritors, however, the thoughts of a group of Neandertal men are projected in a fictitious picture in the imagination.
		In Wells' text one can read that Neandertal men are hunched grey wolf-like monsters,3, and that the first humans acted in their true self-interest when they killed those Neandertal men that came too close to them for they would have eaten their children.
		The question as to who 'the inheritors' of the novel's title are may be answered by saying that the reader, themselves organized in society, belongs to the inheritors.

		Golding's "The Inheritors" was originally published in 1955, and was his first book after "Lord of the Flies" made his name.
		Unfortunately, while his first novel was intriguing, well-written and suspenseful, "The Inheritors" is one of the most bizarre and confused novels of its time.
		I really wanted to like "The Inheritors." Unfortunately, I had to force myself to finish it and ended up loathing it as much as any book I've ever read.

		In the midst of Stefan Ruzowitzky's somber rural allegory, which owes much of its visual inspiration to the palette and compositional sense of the Dutch masters, that would indeed be a ray of light.
		Set in a Austrian village in the 1930s, but often looking so classically rustic that it could date back a century or two earlier, "The Inheritors" revolves around the death of a landowner and his unexpected bequest.
		Among those who stand out are Sophie Rois as Emmy, the group's firebrand, and Simon Schwarz as Lukas, the former foundling who becomes an object of fascination all around the barnyard.

		From the author of Lord of the Flies, The Inheritors is a startling recreation of the lost world of the Neanderthals, and a frightening vision of the beginnings of a new age.
		The Inheritors was Golding's first novel and apparently his personal favourite.
		In a narrative form similar to The Spire (which is not only my favourite Golding book but my favourite book ever), The Inheritors tells the story of the arrival of human beings as we know them today over the shoulder of the semi-evolved Lok, an excellently constructed and loveable character.

		The Inheritors is the second film by writer-director Stefan Ruzowitzky, the first to find distributorship in the United States.
		It is a work that would be a credit to a far more experienced film maker, powered by a strong plot line, well developed characterizations, stunningly handsome photography, and some interesting observations of the human condition.
		In addition to The Inheritors, consider Gods and Monsters, Insomnia, Life is Beautiful, Love is the Devil, Marius et Jeannette, Pi - these easily rank among the best films we've seen in the last year.

		All that changes, however, when their misanthropic boss dies and leaves them his entire estate, a will the other landowners honor as if it were written by Howard Hughes.
		Ruzowitzsky draws the line between his heroic peasants and their cruel adversaries too boldly, but his Marxism is touched by moments of eccentric whimsy—a conversation relayed through a chorus of sniffles, a circus elephant making an unexpected climb up a hillside, the village hussy (Sophie Rois) brazenly belting out hymns from a landowner's church pew.
		The Inheritors unravels a bit toward the end, once it returns to a dark family secret that's telegraphed from the very beginning.
