Original Italian 1964 Re-Release Poster (79×55) for the Giuseppe De Santis drama, RISO AMARO (1949) starring Vittorio Gassman, Doris Dowling, Silvana Mangano, and Raf Vallone. In this earthy drama released in the U.S. under the title BITTER RICE, two small-time criminals (Gassman and Dowling) team up with a voluptuous rice worker (Mangano) and a former soldier (Vallone) in a complex plot involving robbery, love, and murder. The film was one of the biggest worldwide box-office hits of Neo-Realism. This original Italian re-release poster is folded and in fine condition with some minor tears.
