Italian cinema gave rise to a number of the best-known films of the
postwar years, from Rome Open City to Bicycle Thieves. Although
some neorealist film-makers would have preferred to abolish stars
altogether, the public adored them and producers needed their help
in relaunching the national film industry. This book explores the
many conflicts that arose in Italy between 1945 and 1953 over stars
and stardom, offering intimate studies of the careers of both
well-known and less familiar figures, shedding new light on the
close relationship forged between cinema and society during a time
of political transition and shifting national identities.
