Sinopsis(1)
Cuando Zampanó, un artista ambulante, enviuda, compra a Gelsomina, la hermana de su mujer, sin que la madre de la chica oponga la menor resistencia. Pese al carácter violento y agresivo de Zampanó, la muchacha se siente atraída por el estilo de vida nómada, siempre en la calle (la “strada”, en italiano), sobre todo cuando su dueño la incluye en el espectáculo. Aunque varios de los pintorescos personajes que va conociendo en su deambular le proponen que se una a ellos, Gelsomina se mantendrá fiel a Zampanó hasta las últimas consecuencias.

The centre of the narrative is not Fellini's pictorial symbolism, but Giulietta Masina, an actress whose shy look full of moral innocence is worth a thousand words, and Anthony Quinn, a charismatic thunderbolt whose eccentric performance brings the viewer exactly to the emotions the situation demands. They make such an unforgettable couple, and their mutual differences become such a strong and narratively unifying bond, that master Fellini could just dryly react behind the camera this time and the tragic ending would still hit us in the back of the head with an unprecedented emotional load. The story this time is very basic and some of the philosophical motifs just stretch it unnecessarily, but in Fellini's rich filmography, full of challenging works of thought, The Road certainly doesn't get lost even after all these years, quite the opposite... 80%

There's probably not much doubt that it's a good film, just as there are excellent performances by the actors. However, I can't help feeling that it's not something that would completely blow me away to the point of being floored. It's an excellent example of how Fellini knew how to tell stories and also how he could look at people in a way that most of us wouldn’t like.
