Giulietta Masina won Best Actress at Cannes as the title character of one of Fellini's most haunting films. Oscar winner for Best Foreign Language Film, Nights of Cabiria is the tragic story of a naive prostitute searching for true love in the seediest sections of Rome. Criterion proudly presents the restored director's cut in a breathtaking new transfer. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)

Life is fragile and unfair and the blows of fate can be really hard, as Cabiria's protagonist could talk about from morning till night. Giulietta Masina nailed the role and did it brilliantly, all her movements, gestures, expressions and rapidly changing moods were very believable. And that she was quite annoying at times! Maybe it was the dubbing, or even the fate of Cabiria, but at times she reminded me terribly of a sort of Renée Zellweger in a mix of Ruby from Cold Mountain and Bridget Jones. In short, life’s a bitch and whoever wants to have it with minimal worries has to fight like a pitbull.

When you feel like your life is worthless, hold on to your ideals and dreams, because know that it can get worse. And in this case, it does. Hope dies last, but by definition, it is clear that it also dies. Fellini made a good film, but it didn't completely blow me away. However, Guilietta Masina is fantastic in her role.
