What Poor But Beautiful Is About
Salvatore and Romolo live on Piazza Navona in Rome, neighbours and friends; both live with their parents, neither has any money, and both fall for the same girl, Giovanna. The friendship starts to strain because of it. The film's place in cinema history is larger than its subject: it took the poor neighbourhoods of neorealism, removed the pain and put a light romantic comedy in its place, a current that came to be called pink neorealism in Italy. It was a big hit and produced two sequels, the first real success for Dino Risi.
