Publisher description
"Recognized as a master of Italian and world cinema, Vittorio De Sica is considered one of the major proponents of neorealism, an Italian movement that forever altered the content and style of the cinema worldwide." "This work covers De Sica's entire career as a stage and screen actor, director, and screenwriter. It begins with a chronology of his life and work. A lengthy essay discusses biographical and career information in detail. Special attention is given to the years following the war when De Sica directed Shoeshine, Bicycle Thieves, Miracle in Milan, and Umberto D. - films that made him famous." Stage acting credits, screen acting credits, a filmography of De Sica's directorial work, selected credits related to De Sica's neorealism films, and a filmography of De Sica's work as a screenwriter are included. Two interviews with the master provide additional insights. A bibliography of works by and about De Sica in the English language completes the book.
