Vittorio De Sica

Japanese: デ･シーカ（英語表記）Vittorio De Sica

1901‐74
Italian film director. After World War II, he became the greatest director of "Neorealism" alongside Roberto Rossellini with his two films "Shoeshine" (1947) and "Bicycle Thieves" (1948). All of his representative works, from "The Children Are Watching" (1942) to "The Miracle of Milan" (1950), "Umberto D" (1952), "Terminal Station" (1953), and "Two Women" (1960), were made in collaboration with screenwriter Cesare Sabatini, and Sabatini's "Neorealism of the Everyday" can be considered to have been formed through his collaboration with De Sica.

1901‐74
イタリアの映画監督。第2次世界大戦後，《靴みがき》(1947)，《自転車泥棒》(1948)の2作でロベルト･ロッセリーニと並ぶ〈ネオレアリズモ〉の最大の監督となった。《子供たちは見ている》(1942)から《ミラノの奇蹟》(1950)，《ウンベルト･D》(1952)，《終着駅》(1953)，《ふたりの女》(1960)等々に至る代表作のすべてが脚本家のチェーザレ･サバティーニとコンビを組んだもので，サバティーニの主張した〈日常性のネオレアリズモ〉はむしろデ･シーカとの共同作業によって形成されていったものとみなすことができる。
