If you loved Mariage à l'italienne, try Le Voleur de bicyclette
Un pont entre un film que tu as déjà vu et un que peu de gens ont croisé. Voici ce qu'ils partagent, et ce que le second fait que le premier ne fait pas.
Ce qu'ils partagent
Both films are directed by Vittorio De Sica, and they both carry the foreign gem mood tag, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Mariage à l'italienne, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
foreign gem
What Le Voleur de bicyclette is
Rome, post-war, a bicycle bell ringing. A father and son scour the city streets, a stolen bike their only hope for a steady income. De Sica grounds neorealism in the everyday struggles of the working class.
