"The Bicycle Thief" Analysis


This film is a great example of the realist theory and the formalist theory. The actors were not professional, deep focus long takes and the location really showed the rawness and validity of this story. The camera movements, close-ups, set design, and wardrobe enhance the story and make everything look up to standard. Antonio and Bruno can also be a representation of post WWII Italians because of their determination of finding a new and better way of living. It is an amazing film that is so captivating because of the accurate portrayal it depicts.
