Following World War II, Silvio (Alberto Sordi), unable to keep his job, loses both his social standing and his wife (Lea Massari), until he attempts to back away from his old principles.
"Right after 'Una Vita Difficile', Risi made 'Il Sorpasso', ...The original English title of that film was 'The Easy Life'. Federico Fellini’s 'La Dolce Vita' dates from the same period. So much life!
All of these movies pulsate with the breathlessness and disorientation of a country simultaneously grappling with the past and speeding toward a confusing future. 'Una Vita Difficile' belongs in their company. It also stands by itself as an exuberant bad time, a pity party that has no business being so much fun."
