I am GREATLY influenced by Italian Neorealism films which are often about the struggles of working-class life. I love to write stories about the unfortunate and the issues that they face on a daily basis. This creates empathy with the characters in the story and supports the universal theme of survival. If this is not your thing then I don't know why the hell you took the time to make such a fallacious comment.

Oh, I see... Just that one scene was removed due to restrictions. Maybe it wasn't pertinent to the rest of what the instructor was talking about with introductory information.

Very nice and insightful! I couldn't move from my chair! Nevertheless I'd love he said Luchino Visconti correctly. It Is LUKINO, please!!!!!

So, commenting on another work is now copyright infringement? When did that happen?

It's kind of hard to learn by example when the example is conveniently removed.

Whoa, and all these years of being a physicist I was under the impression that math and physics were based on logical constructs and supported models of the current understanding of the universe. I must be in the wrong field, I should have studied theology :P

In APu's trilogy, apu is a brahmin not an untouchable. But yes his family is poor but not untouchable. And Brahmins are are on the top of the caste system in India.
