I said this before when I watched La Strada, but Masina truly has one of the indelible faces in all of film. She's remarkable in this--one of my favorite performances of this project. Not sure what's up with Fellini's cinematic abuse of these women, though, sheesh.

A very good and very well acted neorealist film, with a strong echo by the co-writer Pasolini, but still some of Fellini's signature elements in the background. As it is the first I have seen from the director, I am unable to put it in comparison with his others, perhaps the main criticism here is that is tied too much with neorealism leaving apart a bit of originality.

I prefer this to Fellini's La Dolce Vita and 8 1/2. Maybe it's because it's more of a tragedy in the neo-realist sense, maybe it's because the narrative is a little more succinct and flows more smoothly. Giulietta Masina (Fellini's real life wife) is brilliant as the down trodden central figure, and the ending is as tense as it is magical. Great film.

This is a superb vehicle for a very much on-form Giulietta Masina in the title role. She is a lady of the night whom we see, right at the start, being shoved into the river by her robber boyfriend and left to drown. Rescued thanks to an alert local urchin and a few locals. she is shaken but largely More
