The Neorealism. We weren't alone… Ladri di biciclette

Carlo Lizzani & Gianni Bozzacchi

For Lizzani, Neorealism is in a way the spiritual testament and the fulfillment of the autobiography: but it is also the critical review of all the studies and thoughts elaborated by this affable and rigorous Master of Italian culture. It is not surprising that this Bozzacchi project has excited Lizzani. Because from the formal structure Neorealism emerges as a cinematographic work and an audiovisual writing more directed to the coming century than to the past: a multimedia work to be interpreted, to be moved and to take advantage of technologically at various levels: and that only because of the ancient tradition , and with some of that mental laziness that Lizzani has worked so hard to combat, we can still call it a "film" or a "documentary."
