Bicycle Thief Movie Review. A man needs a bicycle for work. The bicycle thief, a 1948 italian film by vittorio de sica, follows a poor, unemployed man who must retrieve his stolen bicycle so he can return to work.
“bicycle thieves” may seem like an improbable gateway to the glamorous golden age of italian cinema, the starry, sexy cosmos of loren, gina lollobrigida and “la dolce vita,” but sensuality. The protagonist is basically powerless against the thief, as he cannot prove anything, yet he is still without his bicycle (which is a valuable commodity, for transportation to/from work, etc.) if there was a happy ending, that would soften the impact of what the filmmaker was trying to portray. It covers the most remarkable scenes through the movie and technical elements that provide a better understanding of the historical context in which the movie takes place.
