Friars and Film

Join us as we discuss Vittorio De Sica's 1948 neorealist film about, yes, a bicycle thief. Other themes: children looking up to their parents, original sin, mob mentality, and the like. Intro music: "Magne Pater" by Dominican Schola Cantorum. Outro music: "Put The Blame On Mame" by Rita Hayworth .

Our Fellini foray is here finished. We try to tackle his two greatest films and find ourselves limited. Follow us to the early 1960s as we cover nearly 6 hours of film, tracking the decline of journalist Marcello Rubini and that of the director himself. Other themes include: Biblical fish, serial adultery, and self-absorbed artists. Intro music: "Magne Pater" by Dominican Schola Cantorum. Outro music: "Experimental Film" by They Might Be Giants .
