The nature is inherently evil, and it has nothing to do with the order of the old and the young, let alone a poor street or a bright mirror. Compared with the distorted and ugly state of the broken society, the betrayal contest of childlike friendship is more shocking. The great De Sica, makes all the eight o'clock bitterness scenes real and reasonable in the viewing...

The friendship in the growth period is like white porcelain just out of the kiln, crystal clear yet vulnerable. The past happiness and friendship, the past trust and admiration, because of calculations and misunderstandings, because of incitement and revenge, because of the childishness that has not yet taken off as a child, Bai Ci was hit and shattered to the ground. Never going back to the past, the two rode on horses and enjoyed endless days. Friendship is only one of the things broken under...

The corruption of the 8.4 score system prevented a group of children from getting a chance to reform, and even paid the price of their...

3.5. Desica has a strong sense of neo-realistic choreography. The camera likes to tweet close-ups during transitions, and the reaction camera is too forward, resulting in a single scene that is too fast-paced. This may be because the director is eager to execute the effect he wants. It's too clear, but it seems deliberate. In contrast, I prefer Rossellini. Fortunately, this story focuses more on the human aspect, and the transformation of character relationships is very complicated, which is...

Perhaps what the director wanted to say was exactly that sentence: If these children are guilty, then all of us are guilty. Friendship is so fragile in the face of a changing environment. This makes me love the tuberculosis kid even more. Neither disease nor the environment robs him of his simple kindness and yearning for the sea. || This group of children was filmed too stylish, and the director, you feel your conscience and say that you are really not filming the base film, and it is enough...

@小西天. Children who are forced to become adults: They are forced to live on the streets prematurely by life, and they are forced to lose their innocence and friendship by punishment. Escape from prison, but ultimately cannot escape the sinister hearts, the bleak reality and the shadow of death. Desika is always so humble and harmless to the manifestations of hope, but a horse, a dog, and a bicycle. Even so, it is not...

Desika is really a tear-making machine. The children ask the tarot fortuneteller, does the child have no future? The children said, when you want something, you have to say the other way around. If you want to be with your friend, you have to say you hate him. Poverty makes people lose their minds, adults’ lies and conspiracies destroy the children’s innocence and righteousness, and they inform each other. Watch Free World News in prison. Looking forward to the sea and the scene of meeting with...

In post-war Italy, children and the poor were the protagonists. But with such a grand victory for the country, who cares that two slum children need a horse. When children are required to live by the social laws of adults, and to be punished by adults for wrongdoing, it is to be expected that they will go to adult-like...

A. De Sica's early focus was always on children, and De Sica's shots always entered the interior of the characters (different from Rossellini's cold outlook). Like the childhood shadow of "The Children Are Watching Us", the analogy to the haze brought to Italy by the war is also the background of the war that is not mentioned at all. The dialogue and experience of the child protagonist point directly to the misery: the elevator invention provides a place to live, the main culprit’s concern is...
