Review of Umberto D. (1952) by Eric N — 27 Feb 2008
Incredible film! Definitely one of the best films I've ever seen!
It's so emotional and truly captures the demoralization of the Italian people post-World War II.
Considered the pinnacle of neorealism filmmaking, Umberto D. tells the sad and desperate life of Umberto, who tries to pay off his rent while taking care of his beloved dog, Flike.
I highly recommend this film, and you would really be missing out if you never watch it.
(But note that the film is Italian and has English subtitles :P).
