Bicycle Thieves, Vittoria De Sica, 1948

``Bicycle Thieves´´ is a 1948 drama film, which was directed by Vittorio De Sica. It tells the story of a man whose bicycle was stolen in Rome at the second post Word War. The bicycle is very important for him because without it he will lose his job, so he won´t be able to feed his family.

This story is inspired by the second post World War. At these ages there was not enough food, so the hunger it was very widespread. These is the reason why the father was so hopeless for finding the bicycle. Even if he was upset, weak or wrong, he would give everything he had for his family.

It is a very slow film, and this might be a bit boring, but it is very realistic so you can see how people was living at these ages.

In my opinion, is a boring film, so I didn´t enjoy watching it, but for someone who likes realistic slow films, I think it will love it.
