La Strada
The title La Strada, means The Road. It is about this young lady whose mother is forced to place her in the custody of a traveling showman strongman named Zampano due to poverty. It focuses on their relationship and how it eventually leads to extremely unpleasant and unforeseen complications.
This is the film that launched Anthony Quinn to stardom. Prior to that he had been purposefully restricted to minor roles playing the part of Native Americans. Thinking that the film was not good, based on an initial negative review, Quinn sold all rights to the film. It was a decision he would later come to regret since the film proved to be a major success once released in the United States.
