La Strada - (Fellini;1954;Italy) - ****
A street performer buys a young woman, and takes her on the streets with him as part of his act as a troubled relationship begins.
Anthony Quinn is quickly becomming one of my favorite actors. Here is another amazing performance from him. Giulietta Masina is also good as the young woman. Fellini's direction is inferior to La Dolce Vita and 8 1/2 but this is still a powerful film and great look into a tragic relationship. I don't know if anyone else thinks this but it's a very relevant film even to today. The final scene is powerful.
