A very good movie

An anticipation of Blasetti's style. A great movie about the Siena Palio. Guido Celano (Zarre) is a very good actress and Leda Gloria too. The Tuscany environment is very well depicted. The performing style is influenced by the period, but it is quite good anyway. It is a very uncommon movie and the best representation of Palio, a religious and sporting event in Siena. Blasetti, then, after Il Palio and Terre Sole, start a wonderful career as director and will anticipates the "neorealism" with his 1942's movie "Quattro passi fra le nuvole". Very impressive the opening scene with Zarre riding a horse in the Siena countryside.
