Watch this outstanding 1940's combo of Italian neorealism, noir and the painterly grotesque! The film is in Italian with English subtitles, and everyone is invited to stay for a discussion afterward.

In this 1949 film (in Italian with English subtitles), a rice field worker (Silvana Mangano) falls in with a small-time criminal (Vittorio Gassman) whose accomplice girlfriend (Doris Dowling) is questioning her loyalty to him and his latest scheme.

This film was directed by Giuseppe De Santis and is not rated (some scenes of violence). Its runtime is 109 minutes.

A discussion of the film will be led by SPL's Writer in Residence, Garry Thomas Morse, after the screening.
