Review:
I enjoyed watching The Bicycle Thief as it had a familiar feel to the story line. The use of ordinary people for the actors really outlined the theme of poverty in the film, The bicycle itself represented the fathers job and his desperate need for an income to look after the family he loved and adored. The son showed the immensity of the father's love and his need for the bicycle constantly following him around, I found it interesting that the father got so desperate that he would force the same circumstances on another family just to remove his own problems. The movie was emotional and touching, as the young boys love for his father stayed true even after witnessing him stealing another persons bike.
