ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

gavin6942 This short film tells the story of the most important cinema trend that Italy has ever produced - Neo Realism. Born after the Second World War, this veritable cultural revolution rapidly became a boundless source of inspiration for movie-makers throughout the entire world.Although somewhat short (barely over an hour), this film looks at a very influential part of cinema history: Italian Neorealism, a style that was strong for a ten year period from the 1940s through the 1950s, giving us such classics as "Bicycle Thieves", "Umberto D" and "Rome, Open City". Although no doubt studied by film students, it is something largely overlooked by the general public.And I confess that it is something I only knew of vaguely. I knew the term and could name a few films, but had no idea of the greater context and how it grew out of World War II and something of a revolt to Hollywood films and what they call "white telephone" movies.One interview subject in the film makes a comment that we are in the "night of the zombies". This is unfortunately true, but also happens to be my entrance into Italian cinema. Through horror (not just zombie films) and giallo pictures, I have a strong appreciation for the Italian film... it was only natural to branch out into the more serious themes. Were Bava and Argento influenced by Rossellini? How could they not be?
