The Bicycle Thief

I guess most of you aren't very into old classics, but yeah, this movie is just great with non-professional actors

"The film tells the story of Antonio Ricci, an unemployed man in the depressed post-World War II economy of Italy. With no money and a wife and two children to support, he is desperate for work. He is delighted to at last get a good job hanging up posters, but on the sole condition that he has a bicycle which must be used for work. He is told unequivocally: "No bicycle, no job." His wife Maria pawns their bedsheets in order to get money to redeem his bicycle from the pawnbroker.Early on in the film, Ricci's coveted bicycle is stolen by a bold young thief who snatches it when he is hanging up a poster. Antonio thinks that the police will take the theft very seriously, but they are not really interested in the petty theft of a bike. The only option is for Antonio and his friends to walk the streets of Rome themselves, looking for the bicycle"

^_^don't know alot of the movies on your list storm but I agree with Falcon on Tom hanks in Forrest Gump, The Terminal and Green Mile!! <3

hahaha well clockwork orange ( great movie 2 btw) used a song from singing in the rain but its the same yes :p the song he sings is in that movie 2

^_^'
Hah.
I saw that movie in school.
Such a strange movie from which I never saw motives of that guy.. xP Really loved it though how he smashed that woman with the giant piece of white "art" ;P

hahaha well i really like the idea behind the movie!
He is a criminal and uses alot of violence..and enjoys it
then he they do tests on him and give him medicine and make him puke when he see violence or anything related to it.. so he is actually fucked up.. and his friends betray him 2...
but in the end he uses violence again but this time he doesnt enjoys it anymore.. so he gets back in his old patern
