The father was cornered, slapped his son out of anger, and the pressure of life broke his bottom line. Finally, he started on a bicycle that did not belong to him. The naked and bloody reality is the careful research and skilled crime of the bad guys. After all, the method is "professional", a father who has passed his impulse. No matter what, he can't find his stolen bicycle. The important thing is to steal the bicycle and be caught on the spot in front of his son. I feel sad and disgusted with my father.
Originally, for me, the possibility of being able to get in touch with this movie was zero, but because it was Hirokazu Koreeda who had an impression of this movie, and it was Hirokazu Koreeda who expressed a plot in his "Phantom Light" work, that is, the male The owner went to a baseball stadium far away from his home and stole a bicycle and came back and said, "I think it's better to steal from the rich." When his wife asked him, he replied in a brisk tone: "If it was stolen, it should be Steal it back." Later, the couple re-painted the stolen car with another color. At first, I was a little confused when I saw this. After watching "The Bicycle Thief", I think I can understand it as this It's a tribute to this film.
I seem to have another layer of understanding of the film, and it feels very subtle. ?

    Among the classic old movies, I still prefer movies like "The Bicycle Stealer". Although the story has a strong sense of the times, most of its lens language, scene scheduling, actor performances, etc. are not outdated, and there are still many modern movies for reference. I liked the sentence that the father said to his son, "Why do you make yourself so unhappy when you are at the end of the road?" In the end, the father and son walked hand in hand in the bustling crowd.

    The unpretentious lens is full and can serve the psychological activities of the characters and the reality of life in Italy after the war. The film is known as its realist style and the history of filming has finally found resources for many years. Unfortunately, its revolutionary nature does not seem to have shocking power today. Early films The means of expression seem to be too simplistic now, and I am still distressed: Is it possible that the key to the interpretation of the classics is always missing?

  • Antonio Ricci: [At a restaurant, he and his son notice a nearby table occupied by an apparently well-off family who are eating quite well] To eat like that, you'd have to earn at least a million a month.

  • La Santona: [Addressing a young man seated before her, apparently seeking advice on his love life] You must plant your seeds in another field. Do you understand what I mean?

    Young man seeking advice: No, I don't understand.
