The police station, no matter what, okay! We remember the frame number, we can find it, call a friend in the streets of Rome, check all the second-hand car market carefully, look at it one by one, look for parts one by one... …Not found, in the rain, it was in vain. The search for the bike never gave up. Finally, when he was about to despair, the car thief found it, but there was no evidence, let alone a car, and the officer was powerless. The shattering of little hopes in this way gave people a devastating blow. Little by little, the desire for hope was wiped out, and a little by little, he became completely desperate and degenerate.
In this way, the moral bottom line was broken when hardship became an unbearable burden in life, and Richie had a bicycle stolen who became a bicycle stealer. It's just that he was not so lucky. He was caught on the spot and was physically and morally insulted by everyone. Fortunately, the owner saw that the innocent child forgave the bike thief and was not sent to the police station. Is the father’s crying an accusation of reality or a confession of his actions? Who should we blame, Richie or the one who stole Richie's bike? In
the final shot of the film, the son took his father's helpless hand, and the father and son disappeared into the bustling crowd in tears. The story returns to the beginning, but there are four more tears. At this moment, Dad became a weak, morally weak. The son sees all these things in his eyes, so do you still have to ask the father's image in his son's mind at this time? Does it seem too redundant? We have no right to criticize Rich's transformation. In the face of that moment, can we guarantee that we will not do the same thing as Rich.
The film "Bicycle Stealer" reflects reality in such a plain and plain manner, just like a child being squeezed by the crowd again and again in the process of looking for a bicycle. For those of us who are familiar with the plots of various movies, we will always think of the next scene. It's the kid's getting lost or being abducted, but no. Every time the child will return to his father's side safely and find his father's figure.
This is real life. There are not so many coincidences and accidents. This is a neo-realist movie, a reproduction of life, without fierce conflicts and wonderful shots, without miracles and disasters. Life is like this, but this life is more tragic.
