      Sean Axmaker Parallax View What really charges up the film is the feeling of accomplishment and ownership as they work their way through each problem and, almost without noticing, create a successful business out of the restaurant. Mar 14, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Simome Signoret, Gina Rovere, Emmanuelle Riva and Sandra Milo are a joy to watch in this obscure Italian film from 1960. Gritty, human and tragic with some humorous moments. Definitely recommend. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member 7.0/10, my review: http://wp.me/p1eXom-2fX Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review edmund p http://letterboxd.com/edmundpoliks/film/adua-and-her-friends/ Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Adua and her "colleagues" are on their own after their brothel is outlawed. As they struggle to learn a new way of living, they find that society keeps pressuring them to return to their old ways. I haven't been too thrilled with Signoret, but this is a role she was born to play, brassy and bold. The film manages to be quite entertaining, a relative rarity in neo-realism. The jazzy score helps, as does the fine camerawork, but it's really the characters and performances that keep it compelling.
