39/365 Paisà

6 individual stories tracking the Americans as they sweep north from Sicily to free Italy from the control of the Germans between 1943 and 1944. As well as showing the realities of war (rather than the stateside glamour which Hollywood was producing at the time), the film presents a variety of relationships hampered by a language barrier.

Cert: PG

UK Release: 1948
