    If roughly divided into two. Rome, Open City points to Fellini, Pontecorvo. Bicycle Thieves points to Antonioni, Ken Roach, Dardenne. The former is action-style, the latter is...

    After watching the domestic anti-Japanese drama for so many years, it still feels a little shocking, but it is still weak in general. It had a great impact back then, but now I really can't see anything (the title of the dubbed version: Italian Progressive Film: Rome, no Fortified city =...

    I don't like neorealism group portraits. The characters are a bit sloppy and the neorealist work I admire the most. The Bicycle Stealer uses the stolen-stealed structure to map the meticulously portrayed individuals into the society as a whole. In my opinion, it is much...

    Although it was filmed in the year after World War II, it feels quite normal, bland and lacking in bright spots. Movie history is more important than the movie...

    I thought it was also a big stuffy film of neo-realism, but I didn't expect the story to be so strong. It made me emotional, and I remembered immortality in the fire. Except for the live shooting, I don't think it has anything to do with the Hollywood movies at that time. The difference is that I think the majority of actors are professional actors, that is, after the little boy's stepfather escaped the catastrophe in the end, he didn't show it again. Let’s talk about the difference between...

    The Nazi-occupied Rome, the rebellion in the Eternal City, the brilliance of human freedom. The priest who was shot, the child who was affected. //The first Rossellini | 20190302 Archives Rossellini Retrospective Exhibition, Beijing is heavily smoggy today, and the meeting in a peaceful and prosperous age is about to be held. The fat bird was hunted...

    The contrast between Bina and marina is very sharp. Women can't be too selfish and stupid. Sometimes revolutionary feelings can be praised. In times of war, children are like adults. I was shocked to see how strong the little child who lost his mother still gave his stepfather the silk scarf that his mother gave...

    Really nice. The image of each character is well portrayed and the motives are reasonable. Even the reasons for the madness and confusion of the German army are explained. As a result, the film has gone from simply reflecting the patriotic war of resistance against the people of the country to thinking about the war itself, which is very good and powerful. . The first paragraph where Pina was beaten to death at the end, I almost cried... When the priest was dying, the children hummed a song...

    Excerpted from the post-screening lecture given by Professor Xu Feng of Chinese Opera

    The genre of neorealism has always been considered to be somewhere between classical and modern cinema.

    There is also a contentious issue about classical cinema: the dividing line between classical and modern cinema. I think there are two levels of analysis: the first is to discuss the relationship...

    shocking truth

    As a participant in the fascist alliance, Italy also committed crimes in the war, but at the same time Italy was also a victim of the war, so, through Rossellini's lens, we see a real record of Rome under Nazi rule.

    Hardships and hardships surround them, with a curfew imposed every day at 5pm, we...

Rome, Open City quotes

  • Marina Mari: Yes. I've had lovers. Of course. What was I supposed to do? How do you think I bought all the furniture, my clothes, everything? With my pay? It's barely enough for stockings and cigarettes. I've gotten by like every other woman. That's life.

    Giorgio Manfredi aka Luigi Ferraris: Life is what we want it to be.

    Marina Mari: Words! Life is filthy and brutal.

  • Marina Mari: I know what poverty is and it scares me. Sure, I could have married a streetcar driver and be starving to death today - me, my children and him.

    Giorgio Manfredi aka Luigi Ferraris: Poor Marina. You think happiness means a fancy apartment, nice clothes, a maid, and rich lovers?

    Marina Mari: If you'd really loved me, you'd have changed me. But you're just like all the others - no, worse. At least they don't preach to me.

    Giorgio Manfredi aka Luigi Ferraris: You're right. Forgive me.
