Review of Open City (2008) by Edmund T — 30 Aug 2009
A masterpiece, especially considering the circumstances. A rough story, with some touch of real life in it, thus the neorealism. Despite the fact that Rossellini had to use many different types of films, gathered from different sources, the movie succeeds in looking continuous and complete.
You can see the change in film quality between sequences, but that is always used as an effect, as part of the scene. Pure magic.
