Review of Open City (2008) by Larisa L — 28 May 2011
A beautiful portrait of people willing to sacrifice for something greater than themselves, of love for another that pursues at all costs, and of honorable lives in the face of dishonorable oppression. Rome was still in the midst of WWII during filming, meaning that actual piles of rubble from the war and troops roaming the streets lent themselves to a political and spiritual immediacy that is unmistakable.
