Rome, Open City (1945) Ending Explained & Spoilers: What Happens at the End?

Itself Roberto Rossellini It is impossible to approach the fourth feature film of the post-war period from a purely cinematic perspective. There are certainly many new shots, expressionistic lighting and narrative elements for the time, which can also be attributed to the film noir of the time. ROME, OPEN CITY but above all it is history itself. The film is set directly after the Allies’…

DESIDERIO - (Roberto Rossellini & Marcello Pagliero, 1943-1946)

"Tired of being a prostitute, Anna (Elli Parvo) decides to come back to her native village but her return is not what she imagined for herself: in the family she is welcomed with hostility and while her brother-in-law Nando (Massimo Girotti) goes nuts over her, the slimy Riccardo (Francesco Grandjacket) blackmails her by threatening to tell her past to her naive boyfriend (Carlo Ninchi) ".

Rossellini, influenced by "Ossessione" (Luchino Visconti, 1942), began the film (temporary title: "Scalo merci") in 1943 from a screenplay by Giuseppe De Santis, Rosario Leone and Diego Calcagno but the war events forced him to stop shooting and rewrite the plot (new title: "Rinuncia"); director Marcello Pagliero completed the movie (following Rossellini's suggestions) after the end of the war but the censorship intervened heavily. Nowadays a complete version is available that allows us to judge and criticize the movie as it deserves.

I can note all the elements of the great verist melodrama are evident in the film and there is much moralizing rethorics but some values are present and undeniable like the condemnation of the family and the explicit treatment of sex as a motive of human deviance (and Elli Parvo shows also her bare breast). Rossellini tries to represent the inner life of his characters and their inability to communicate by relating to themes of his future masterpieces, from "Germania anno zero" to the films with Ingrid Bergman.
