It IS one of the best films ever made, and if you dig deeper into that period in general, and De Sica's art in particular, you will find more gems.It is, BTW, available both on tape and DVD.
Follow Ups:
Yes, but then he will dissolve in tears when he hears the word, "Flic!""The Bicycle Thief" is sad...but "Umberto D" is unbelievably devastating.
de Sica is an incredible director. Orson Welles once said something along the lines of, "What I can do in films I believe no one else can do. But I ran 'The Bicycle Thief' again recently and was amazed. The camera just disappeared and there were no actors, no script...it was just life up there on the screen..."

effort and one that underlines what a curious profession acting is, i.e. the "performances" of the father and boy have seldom been equalled by professionals. Imagine a non-musician picking up a Strad and trying to play a concerto...and having the result be considered one of the best of all time!
