Sažetak
The aim of the thesis is to find out how much the Italian neorealism influenced the American postwar cinema of the fifties, known as the New York Film School. This movement of the American independent cinema developed from the so called 'underground film' of the fifties and included a series of techniques of avant-garde films that aesthetically and economically opposed the traditional Hollywood production. The specific task of the thesis is to investigate if Morris Engel, although using some different techniques, and working usually on low-budget films, managed to show the real picture of New York of those days like De Sica and his compatriots did in Italy. Methodological procedures are based on the comparative analysis of the Italian neorealism and the New York Film School, specifically the films of Vittorio de Sica, The Children Are Watching Us, The Bicycle Thief, and Shoeshine, and films of Morris Engel, The Little Fugitive, Lovers and Lollipops, and Babies and Weddings.
