Full Plot Details

Umberto Ferrari, aged government-pensioner, attends a street demonstration held by his fellow pensioners. The police dispense the crowd and Umberto returns to his cheap furnished room which he shares with his dog Flick. Umberto's lone friend is Maria, servant of the boarding house. She is a simple girl who is pregnant by one of two soldiers and neither will admit to being the father. When Umberto's landlady Antonia demands the rent owed her and threatens eviction if she is not paid, Umberto tries desperately to raise the money by selling his books and watch. He is too proud to beg in the streets and can not get a loan from any of his acquaintances. He contracts a sore throat, is admitted to a hospital and this puts a delay on his financial difficulty. Discharged, he finds that his dog is gone and, following a frantic search, locates him in the city dog pound. His room has been taken over by the landlady and the now-homeless Unberto determines to find a place for his beloved dog, and then kill himself. Unsuccessful, he resolves that his dog must die with him and he stands in the path of a train, with his dog in his arms.

Movie Reviews

Arizona Daily Star - 10/10 by Phil VillarrealDe Sica takes a premise that drips with sentimentality and wipes all the sappiness away, leaving only raw action and subtle underlying emotion.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Ann HornadayHeroes like Umberto D. are hard to find, and your life will be better for having met him.
Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonUmberto D. could have been one of the most depressing movies ever made, but instead it's one of the most heartfelt.
New York Times - 10/10 by Walter GoodmanVittorio De Sica's memorable ''Umberto D'' seems more sentimental now, but as you stay with it, the small story grows to a most moving climax.
Dallas Morning News - 10/10 by Charles EalyA slow-moving, gentle movie about the harsh facts of life.
Scene-Stealers.com - 9/10 by Eric MelinEven sentimentality is something that springs naturally from the characters' situations. Umberto has an immense amount of pride despite his impoverished conditions and his attempts to survive aren't accompanied by the usual filmic theatrics.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzDe Sica somehow manages to avert sentimentality and banality, and his simple storytelling leaves a profound and timeless message.
The Coast (Halifax, Nova Scotia) - 6/10 by Mark PalermoThe very concept of believability is challenged: cornball sentiment is approached with such unblinking sincerity that the viewer's given no way to process it except at face value.
User Review - 10/10 by Darryl JI had totally forgot that Vittorio De Sica also directed "The Bicycle Thieves". I was gonna write in my review that this should be a double bill with "The Bicycle Thieves". They're both such simplistic films that pack an emotional wallop. I had read the description on what the movie was about and had prepared myself for a depressing film. It was anything but! Vittorio honestly depicts the dwindling economy in Rome and how it affects the people in it but he makes it more of a light affair so by the time you get to the more dramatic parts you are fully entrenched in these characters lives. Carlo Battisti was perfect. I was surprised to learn he wasn't really a professional actor. His relationship with his lovable dog,Flike,is one of the most touching relationships put on film. Seriously. The last ten minutes of this made me extremely sad then almost euphorically happy.
User Review - 10/10 by Clare NAn absolute gem of a film by the great Italian neorealist, Vittorio De Sica, Umberto D tells the story of a lonely old man in post-WW2 Italy who is struggling to make ends meet. His only companion is his dog Flike, whom he must consider before making a drastic decision. Umberto D fills one with both joy and sadness and though slow moving, is incredibly touching.
