Neorealism was an Italian film movement that arose in the 1940s. It was a reaction to the glossy, unrealistic films that were popular before the war, and it sought to portray the everyday lives of ordinary people. Anna Magnani was a symbol of Neorealism because she was an actress who often played strong, working-class women.
