A translation and critical edition of the script for ""La Strada"". The notes to the shooting script reconstruct some of Fellini's changes while shooting the film. It also contains an introduction, which analyzes the work's place in film history and provides articles on the film's production.


Publisher Marketing: The performances by Giulietta Masina as the waif Gelsomina, Richard Basehart as the fool, and Anthony Quinn as the strongman Zampano, have been acclaimed for their power and sometimes ridiculed for their sentimentality. The debates over what these characters and the story represent, and the position of the film within the neorealist genre, continue today. Review Citations:
