A movie with at least 1,000 votes on IMDB.
"Sunday With Cybele" is one I just saw on IMDB (7.9/10), but only a 44% on RT, which comprises of about 25 25-year olds.. Too much influence for such a small sample size. I think IMDB is the most accurate.
"Miracle in Milan" has a 7.7/10 w/ over 6,000 votes, but its never mentioned even in movie circles.
"Il Generale Della Rovere" - 7.8/10
For perspective, "The Godfather" has 1.5 million votes, and a rating of 9.2/10

Hurt Locker is the lowest grossing Oscar winner - 17 million
Moonlight did slightly better

People talk bad about Crash, but it has a score of 7.7/10.
Several movies with 100% approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes have relatively high scores on IMDb such as Touchez pas au grisbi, Jalsaghar, Jazz on a Summer's Day, and A Man Escaped.

this. A lot of people seem to hate this movie but the rating does not show that.

It was a sad movie about a veteran with apparent shellshock who befriends a young girl. At least that's what I remember. I've never seen "Miracle in Milan". I would like to see it, though. I bet I'd love it. The critics like to focus on "Bicycle Thief" for De Sica. I'm sure they have their reasons. I thought "Shoeshine" was better, though. And the last three minutes of "Umberto D" are, for me, the most heartwrenching of them all. But you never hear about that movie. |

I was always worried about the shell-shock leading to possible molestation.
I recommend "Miracle in Milan", but De Sica has even better movies, like "Two Women", "Sunflower" (I think easily the best love movie), and I agree Umberto D and Shoeshine (Welles' called this the favorite movie a few times) are better than Bicycle Thieves, which is a great movie, but this seems to use up all of De Sica's works. My favorite director, and a hell of an actor. Amazon has a documentary on him - Vittorio D
