Following The Bicycle Thief, Vittorio De Sica's second effort as a producer-director was acclaimed internationally, winning the Grand prize at Cannes, and voted Best Foreign Film by the New York Film Critic's in 1951. The story of a saint-like orphan boy who rises up to fight for the rights of vagabonds living in a shanty town threatened by a greedy developer, De Sica adds a playful, fairytale dimension to the film's grim social realism. Anticipating the surrealism of Fellini's later work, Miracle in Milan plays as a neorealist fable, a heart-warming tale of good versus evil as the dicarded people of the streets - portrayed by real-life homeless people - challenge the elite that consigned them to poverty. Through it all, the protagonist Toto is offered up a a ray of innocence and hope in a world sullied by avarice and injustice.
