As an old film with depth, it is more than a year old, but it still looks like it is timeless. The desperate eyes of a father struggling at the bottom of society inspired every viewer who ever felt the same way. It turns out, even after so many years, things tend to be like this.
The revolutionaries said: "Where there is oppression, there is resistance." It's just that the movie was too short to be filmed, and we are not the same here.
At the end, the good-hearted people give up the setting of pursuing the unfortunate father, which has been criticized by many radical leftists, and some people even directly accused De Sica of breaking away from the line of true expression pursued by the "Italian Neorealism" movement. But for the director, what is the truth? I think it's like "you should thank God" as the last extra in the movie said. The most ruthless societies still have love omissions, and that's often the case.
