I Vitelloni (1953)

We are the hollow men in this last of meeting places we grope together and avoid speech. Gathered on this beach of the torrid river.

Genre: Comedy, Drama

Released: 1953-09-17

Runtime: 103 min.

Five young men dream of success as they drift lazily through life in a small Italian village. Fausto, the group's leader, is a womanizer; Riccardo craves fame; Alberto is a hopeless dreamer; Moraldo fantasizes about life in the city; and Leopoldo is an aspiring playwright. As Fausto chases a string of women, to the horror of his pregnant wife, the other four blunder their way from one uneventful experience to the next.
