The camera work is impressive in Bitter Rice

The camera work is impressive in Bitter Rice. The screenplay is great as is the acting. There was a team of writers for this film, so that can explain the well-written screenplay. They certainly wrote well together. Afterall, Bitter Rice was nominated for Best Story in the 1950 Academy Awards. Silvana can be seen with her eyes open right before she closes them, even though she had been deceased since the previous night. It is hard to imagine how such a glaring mistake made the final cut. Even still, Bitter Rice is a great film with a strong ending. I recommend. 91/100
