Los artistas desarraigados, los parias de la postguerra representados en esta historia amarga, paradigma del neorrealismo italiano, en la que un tosco forzudo y una dulce y miserable muchacha surcan por un paisaje desesperante, donde lo trágico se asoma camuflado de humillación y la ternura se muestra en su banalidad. Anthony Quinn está formidable y entrañable Giulietta Massina. Triste y sobrecogedora obra de Fellini. 9/10 para una deuda saldada por mi parte con el cine.
