Review of Stromboli (1950) by Adrian B — 15 Aug 2011
Fairly depressing film. Ingrid Bergman, a Lithuanian refugee, escapes an internment in the aftermath of World War II and marries an Italian, who takes her to Stromboli. There, she is miserable and tries escape the island through a port on the opposite side of the island.
Much suffering throughout, but only a small satisfaction for the viewer. The scenery is at least nice to look at, but the premise and ending are relatively problematic. "Rome, Open City" it's not! Not a great film for Rosselini nor lengendary actress, Ingrid Bergman.
