5.0 out of 5 stars Hopes and fears!!!, 14 Jun 2008

By	Room For A View - See all my reviews

Mama Roma (Anna Magnani) loves her son and is driven by a passion to free him from the shackles of urban poverty, unemployment and criminality. But her task is a daunting one - plagued by a past life of prostitution, a cloying pimp and a dispossessed youth culture amidst the deprivation of Roman high-rise housing. Pasolini's extraordinary critique of a brave new world is laced with a profound sensitivity to time and place, reinforced by an acute observation of the lives of working class Romans. Considering the constraints of the environment, Mama Roma attempts to eke out a living with a market stall, occasionally turning to her previous occupation, to raise funds to move to a better home and buy a scooter for her son. Her demeanour is remarkably optimistic, infused with an infectious laugh and an endearing personality. Pasolini captures this woman's humanity with some glorious continuous takes and introspective close-ups - Magnani plays the role with exquisite ease and sublime confidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars is one of the most beautiful films i have ever seen, 13 Dec 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Mamma Roma [VHS] [1962] (VHS Tape)

is a film about love, done in a way only a genius like pasolini could do.

is a simple story about a mother and a son.

the images are like painting.

is a must for those that like movies
