  Ladri di biciclette / The Bicycle Thief / Bicycle Thieves / 1948 / film review / Italian neo-realism / Vittorio De Sica
Vittorio De Sica’s undisputed masterpiece, Ladri di Biciclette is widely considered to be one of the most important films made in Italy, and often figures in the list of the world’s top ten greatest films.
Although modest in its choice of subject and cinematic style, Ladri di Biciclette is a work of profound humanity which leaves an indelible impression on its spectator.
It is a film which shows us the best and worst in human nature, informs us about the strength and fallibility of the human spirit under circumstances of extreme penury and moves even the most hard-bitten and cynical of us to tears.

 Vittorio De Sica - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
His meeting with Cesare Zavattini was a very important event: they wrote together some of the most celebrated films of the neorealistic age, like Sciuscià (Shoeshine) and Ladri di biciclette (The Bicycle Thieves).
One of his best-received is La Ciociara (Two Women) (1961): Sophia Loren won the Oscar for her performance, and critics widely regard the film a classic.
De Sica died in Paris on November 13, 1974.

 McLuhan Studies Premiere Issue: Transmedial Migrations: Italian Literature Transformed and Transported
None of Bartolini's other works has been translated into English and it is very unlikely Ladri di biciclette would have been, had it not been for the film.
The present intense interest in Pasolini in the Anglo-American world is due to a number of factors: his sexual orientation (the rise of gay studies); his Marxist political stance; his tragic death (which contributed to defining his public persona as an outspoken outcast); his production as a filmmaker.
Ladri di biciclette is a good example of this: as I noted, the film has supplanted the novel as the cultural point of reference.

 Trivia for Ladri di saponette (1989)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
This movie makes extensive references to Ladri di biciclette (1948), starting with the title.
"Ladri di Biciclette" means "The Bicycle Thieves"; while that is sometimes used as an English title, it is better known as "The Bicycle Thief".
The Italian title of this newer movie, "Ladri di saponette", is a play on "Ladri di Biciclette"; it means "The Soap Thieves", and this apparently refers to the dialogue where Maria tells Bruno not to use up all the soap when washing his hands, remarking to Antonio that he must be eating it.
