Umberto D.

Director Vittorio De Sica's masterpiece is a profound and timeless tale of poverty and loneliness in old age. The story set in post war Italy where Umberto barely lives off his pension. After his hostile landlady wants to evict him if he doesn't pay his rent on time, a desperate Umberto sets out to raise the money along with his beloved dog with devastating results. One of the most humane films in the history of cinema that's just devastating and hasn't lost one bit of its sheer power. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
