Since I went to Rome to attend the European Theatre Festival at the end of last year, I have been wanting to see the film "Rome Undefended", which won the Palme d'Or at the first Cannes Film Festival. When I just finished watching it, I was surprised that I liked this movie. For a long time, I have always avoided movies that involve elements of "World War II," "Nazis," or "espionage." Because I really can't stand the deliberately created "terrifying atmosphere", I can't stand the pressure. (And the disgusting patriotic sentiments) In this masterpiece called Italian neorealism, I see the smell of life belonging to Rome. Even in the face of Nazi rule, what should live is to continue living, what should drink coffee is to drink, be jealous for those you like, run around day and night for life, and the Italian-style "complaining aesthetics", all realistically. , faithfully presented in the film. #Every scene is a masterpiece of vital stills# It is said that Ingrid Bowman was deeply moved by watching this movie and wrote to Rossellini hoping to cooperate #Received four classic works of Rossellini
