Despite the small reservations one might have if one happens to be in a picky mood, The Roof, then, is an admirable film and should therefore not be missed.

De Sica’s Il Tetto emerges as a fundamental and important work, mainly because of the wealth of clues it offers for a sorely-needed revision of neo-realism.
