La Strada

FILMED IN ITALY - WHERE IT HAPPENED!

When Gelsomina, a naïve young woman, is purchased from her impoverished mother by brutish circus strongman Zampanò to be his wife and partner, she loyally endures her husband's coldness and abuse as they travel the Italian countryside performing together. Soon Zampanò must deal with his jealousy and conflicted feelings about Gelsomina when she finds a kindred spirit in Il Matto, the carefree circus fool, and contemplates leaving Zampanò.

    An overhyped movie that failed to deliver. I didn’t connect with the characters or the plot.

    Absolutely hilarious! The humor was spot on, and the comedic timing was perfect.

    Way too long and dragged out. It had potential, but it lost me halfway through.

    Boring and uninspired. I struggled to stay awake, and the characters were forgettable.

    Not my cup of tea. The storyline was predictable and the characters lacked depth.
