Summary:
This academy award-winning film tells of th slow-witted innocent who falls for an abusive circus strongman. There has never been a face quite like that of Giulietta Masina. Her husband, the legendary Federico Fellini, directs her as Gelsomina in La strada, the film that launched them both to international stardom. Gelsomina is sold by her mother into the employ of Zampan�o (Anthony Quinn), a brutal strongman in a traveling circus. When Zampan�o encounters an old rival in highwire artist the Fool (Richard Basehart), his fury is provoked to its breaking point. With La strada, Fellini left behind the familiar signposts of Italian neorealism for a poetic fable of love and cruelty, evoking brilliant performances and winning the hearts of audiences and critics worldwide. The Criterion Collection is proud to present La strada, winner of the Academy Award� for Best Foreign Film in 1956. (Criterion Collection ; v. 219 -- Janus Film)
