UNA VITA DIFFICILE (New 4K Restoration!)

Italy | 1961 | 119 minutes | NR


Following the national trauma of World War II, Italian society is in turmoil. Ardent leftist Silvio Magnozzi (Alberto Sordi) spent the war as an anti-fascist guerrilla, and he’s dismayed to see the country he fought for lurching rightward politically and focusing on shallow materialism instead of civil rights. Unable to keep his former job as a journalist, Silvio loses both his social standing and his wife (Lea Massari), until he attempts to back away from his principles.


Director: Dino Risi
Cast: Alberto Sordi, Lea Massari, Franco Fabrizi, Lina Valonghi


DETAILS

NEW 4K RESTORATION! NEVER BEFORE RELEASED IN THE CANADA!

Silvio (Alberto Sordi), a leftist resistance fighter turned journalist, tries to cling to his political convictions while it becomes increasingly difficult to provide for his family. His wife, Elena (Lea Massari), supports his idealism less and less and reproaches him for not wanting to take advantage of the Italian post-war economic miracle. When she leaves him, Silvio tries to win her back by agreeing to a compromise with a rich industrialist.

UNA VITA DIFFICILE was scanned in 4K from the original negative by Istituto Luce, Rome. The restoration was carried out at VDM by StudioCanal.
