A really daring piece of Italian neo-realism that added much in the way of other elements to its earlier neo-realist counter-parts. Sex is exploited in the figure of Silvana Mangano and a big piece of the plot becomes rather lurid in the form of Vittorio Gassman as a major criminal. The film became an international sensation with its two very appealing stars in exposé type filmmaking that appealed to the masses.
