Extremely realistic, the chaotic scenery of real destruction, the incredible performances, many improvised scenes and lines, amazing angles and close-ups that really favor the expressions, actions and emotions of the characters. A timeless movie with a strong, melancholy and shocking story. A true masterpiece.

Early Roberto Rossellini Italian neo realism, set in ruined Berlin just after the fall of the Third Reich. Devastating.

What an awful position the despicable Nazis left their descendants at the close of the Second World War. Rossellini has the perfect, objective, almost documentarian painterly hand in his depiction of this, and I have the feeling that only someone from one of the losing Axis countries, such as he, co More

Edmund Moeschke ("Edmund") is superb in this gritty and authentic looking post-war story of a young boy struggling, with his family, to make ends meet in Berlin after the fall of the Nazis. Scrounging, scrimping, scavenging - all to try and keep his ailing father and the rest of his family fed and w More
