THE BICYCLE THIEF.



as a film student, here is a classic movie that i like to write about. it is a lesson for all of us to watch the bicycle thief. it is a 1948 italian neorealist film directed by vittoreo de sica. It tells the story of a poor man searching the streets of Rome for his stolen bicycle, which he needs to be able to work. The film is based on the novel of the same name by Luigi Bartolini and was adapted for the screen by Cesare Zavattini. It stars Lamberto Maggiorani as the father and Enzo Staiola as the son.

The film tells the story of Antonio Ricci, an unemployed worker who gets a job posting flyers in the depressed post-World War II economy of Italy. To keep the job, he must have a bicycle, so his wife Maria sells her wedding sheets to get the money to get his bicycle from the pawnbroker.

Early in the film, the bike is stolen, and Antonio and his son Bruno spend the remainder of the film searching for it. Antonio manages to locate the thief (who had already sold the bicycle) and summons the police, but with no proof and with the thief’s neighbors willing to give him a false alibi, he abandons this cause.

At the end of the film Antonio, desperate to keep his job, attempts to steal a bicycle himself. He is caught and humiliated in front of Bruno, but the owner of the bicycle declines to press charges, realizing that the humiliation is punishment enough. Antonio and his family face a bleak future as the film ends, coupled with Antonio's realization that he is not morally superior to the thief. i really like the film because it is a hustlin movie. maybe it is not 8mile or hustle and flow but still antonio had been hustlin. the mesage is simple. no one cares? yeah true. steal and stole. who is real for the role. i hope you ladies or gentlemans can study your identity by watching the bicyle thief. assalamualaikum.

MUSIC.


music is universal. music is your identity. music is rock and roll. music is your soul. music is your way of life. what music for me? music is running in my blood. i listen to real hip hop mostly. real hip hop? let's skip the chapter. they say hip hop is dead. some say hip hop is evolving. i say hip hop had emerge to a new level. from scratch to electro sounds. it had evolved. i met hip hop when i was 14 and still stuck 'flirting' with it. she's kinda hard to date. i'm trying to be a good writer before being a new rapper or should i say you better learn how to shoot before you learn how to aim. well my references is the sounds of lupe fiasco,nas,jay z,termanology,swizzbeats,eminem,saigon,braille,krs one,mc shan and others that in the same game. it's near 2009 i hope hip hop in malaysia will be more alive out there. dose2 and klg sqwad is impressive. they're my taste. in a young age i'm just trying to be silent and learn from others. insyaallah when i have my turn. i will carry the tradition with a great honour.

'siape yang lari semalam ada nampak tak?' 'they were like ohh ada sorang tue putih2 kerinting' then this one girl smiled and said that's justin ! damn i'm fucked up. after that they all knew who's the small batman at school. so if you're wondering who's justin? he is nazreen. well, i am 18 years old now. studying at Akademi Seni Kebangsaan on film and video. can i say i'm a rapper? i'm still learning that question. trickytongue is my group and we're resting for a moment. you can call me nazreen/justin/batman/optimus prime/jereen or anything. ohh i'm taken to nellie bt najib. my fiancee is at new mexico united states of america. i love her so much till the day i died. kuala lumpur - new mexico. far away? it's just a beat of my heart to go to new mexico. i hope allah panjangkan jodoh nazreen and nellie. can i stop? no. i just start writing.
