	Roberto Rossellini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Rossellini was one of the most important directors of Italian neorealist cinema, contributing films such as Roma città aperta to the movement.
		Rossellini's father built the first Roman "cinema" (a theatre in which films could be shown), granting Roberto an unlimited free pass; Roberto started frequenting the cinema at an early age.
		Rossellini had started now his so-called Neorealistic Trilogy, the second title of which was Paisàn (1946), produced with non-professional actors, and the third Germania anno zero (Germany Year Zero, 1946), sponsored by a French producer and filmed in Berlin's French sector.

	Review of Roberto Rossellini's film, "Stromboli," by Fred Camper, from the "Chicago Reader."
		Rossellini, an Italian cut off from the Allies' cinema during the war and not much interested in Hollywood filmmaking anyway, had in fact never heard of Bergman — an acquaintance advised him of her fame.
		Rossellini began the 1950 essay "Why I Directed Stromboli" by stating "one of the toughest lessons from this last war is the danger of aggressive egotism," which he said leads to "a new solitude." This is the theme that unites Stromboli's subject and style.
		Though most accounts of Rossellini's life reveal that it was full of lies, deceptions, a love of seduction and luxury, and bad debts, in his films he managed to wrest from his own chaos a vision of true selflessness — transcendence not of the material world but of the mind's limits.

	Roberto Rossellini
		Filmed soon after the unexpected death of Rossellini's young son, Romano, in 1946, the protagonist, Edmund, becomes a tragic symbol of national guilt and personal pain: the embodiment of lost innocence; the uncertainty of profound change; the guilt of survival; the seeming hopelessness of the future.
		The second collaboration between Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman (after Stromboli), Europa 51 is a provocative, haunting, and compassionate examination of the isolating and often misunderstood path of personal redemption and spiritual service in contemporary society.
		A stylistic influence on the bleak industrial landscapes of Michelangelo Antonioni, Rossellini introduces the environment as a relevant, dynamic character in the lives of a married couple in crisis, and provides a visual metaphor for suppressed emotions.

	Emanuel Levy : Festivals - Rossellini's Centennial

		Rossellini had some idea of her parents' scandalous relationship, but she was sheltered from most of it because she lived in Italy.
		Rossellini was not an attractive man, and it must have been his mind and his artistry that attracted Bergman to him.
		Rossellini does not provide me with that kind of analysis, but what she has provided is a wonderful, light trifle of a read.

	Roberto Rossellini (1906-1977) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The representation of Nazism as some form of sexual 'perversion' can be seen again in Roberto Rossellini's Germany Year Zero (1948) where the school teacher who contributes to the moral malaise of and leading to the suicide of the young teenager by imposing his ideas of euthanasia upon him is a pedophile.
		That Roberto Rossellini was asked to make this film by the Soviet occupation authorities at the time points to a certain collusion in offering explanations for Nazism mutually convenient to both the Stalinist authorities and the Catholic Church.
		In this context it is important to remember that one of the first targets of the Nazis as soon as they came to power was the ritual book-burning followed by closure of the Institute for Sexual Science established by Magnus Hirschfeld (Evans, Richard 2003).

		The complexity of Rossellini's work, as well as the number of problems it raises, forces one to a non-chronological analysis.
		A good example of the importance of this community basis to Rossellini's own knowledge and ethics within his work is the treatment homosexuality receives in it, a treatment in line with the clearly reactionary prejudices of his time.
		As said before, for Rossellini knowledge is always involved in a process in which it is constantly confronted and modified by the consequences of the encounter between human action and appearances.

	ITALIAN FILMS BY Roberto Rossellini on video from THE NEW YORK FILM ANNEX
		The stories include a fl G.I. whose boots are stolen by an impoverished orphan; a soldier who tries to communicate with a Sardinian peasant girl; a nurse who risks her life to join her partisan-leader lover; the capture and execution of partisans and a thrilling action packed episode of battle in a marshy swamp.
		Rossellini shot the film in secret on the streets and in apartments of Rome under occupation.
		Strange that Rossellini would pick this man's as a subject, as he noted: "(Pascal) was a very boring man who never made love in his life..." Yet, the film does achieve moments of great intensity through its depiction of Pascal's inner struggles including the conflict between scientific thought & religion.

		Beginning with Rossellini's work within the fascist cinema, it discusses his invention of neorealism, a new cinematic style that resulted in several classics during the immediate postwar period.
		Almost immediately, however, Rossellini's continually evolving style moved beyond mere social realism to reveal other aspects of the camera's gaze, as is apparent in the films he made with Ingrid Bergman during the 1950s; though unpopular, these works had a tremendous impact on the French New Wave critics and directors.
		Rossellini's late career marks a return to his nonrealist period, now critically reexamined, in such works as the commercially successful General della Rovere, and his eventual turn to the creation of didactic films for television.

	Roberto Rossellini and his Italian Cinema: The Search for Realism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		In 1945, Roberto Rossellini was hailed "The Father of Neorealism" with his first international success "Rome, Open City" which was consistent with the neorealist prescription.
		First, Rossellini's interest in the portrayal of realism was deeply rooted within the Fascist cinematic era in which he was trained by truly Fascist film makers and government officials.
		Even though, with each consecutive film, the ticket sales steadily decreased, Rossellini continued to forge ahead in the development of his own personal portrayal of truth and realism, a movement which, though contrary to that of the mainstream, was important in shaping post-war cinema.

		Rossellini himself went around saying it is wrong to enjoy these movies (or any movies), that the sole justifiable pleasure lies in the sensation of being exposed to facts.
		Its fluid pictorial style, with its continuous reframing as Rossellini looks in (using a remote-controlled zoom he invented for this purpose), assures us of the reality of his gaze and the distance of the past, encourages us to look in, animate the characters, and bring them to life.
		He created a work (his films) baroque in its treatment of space, avid for truth in the instant, the truth of the emotion felt by him in regard to his characters, through an understanding of their interior that could resemble an identification.
