To prove that neorealism had a Fascist past is by no means the same as to prove that the neorealists sought deceptively to suppress that past, however, and while critics have polemically insisted on the former point for at least the last four decades, they have not yet succeeded in establishing the latter. Nevertheless, many continue sententiously to assert that the proponents of neorealism “ignored,” “repressed,” or “denied” their
Fascist origins. These accusations are often abetted by claims that the post-war Italian intelligentsia itself propagated the now discredited myth of a Year Zero, that this was done in order deliberately to disguise their debts to Fascism, and that the myth was thus designed from the start to hide what one scholar has referred to as the “mani sporche’ [sic], or ‘dirty hands,’ of neorealism.” Even when it is conceded that many after the war acknowledged and even accentuated neorealism’s long history, it is said that they produced a selective account, singling out a few films that could be “saved” while discarding or eliding the broader tradition in which those works emerged. Thus, it is claimed that films like Alessandro Blasetti’s Quattro passi fra le nuvole (1942), Luchino Visconti’s Ossessione (1943), and Vittorio De Sica’s I bambini ci guardano (1944) were granted token status as anticipations of neo-realism by critics otherwise eager to conceal the early history of this cultural category.

Such accusations are untenable. From the beginning, it was readily apparent and widely affirmed that neorealism drew on a vast cultural inheritance. Artists and critics articulated a historical lineage that was far more inclusive and far less exculpatory than is often recognized. As we saw in the last chapter, for example, many of the respondents to Carlo Bo’s Inchiesta sul neorealismo – published, it might be remembered, in the same year as Rondi’s Cinema italiano oggi – traced the origins of the term “neorealism” back well before the Second World War. Similarly, as notions of neorealism began to be applied more consistently to post-war filmmaking, there was a concerted effort to locate the emerging tradition within the history of Italian cinematic realism. An editorial in a 1946 issue of the journal Quarta parete, for instance, argued that any hope for the success of Italy’s film industry after the war necessarily rested on the many gains made by the cinema of the Fascist period. In those years, the editorial maintained, “they made many good and even a few excellent films,” a claim supported not only by citing the early work of Blasetti, Visconti, De Sica, and Rossellini, but also by praising such filmmakers as Luigi Chiarini, Ferdinando Maria Poggioli, Gianni Franciolini, Mario Soldati, Renato Castellani, Alberto Lattuada, Mario Camerini, Goffredo Alessandrini, and Augusto Genina. Even when some of these filmmakers had worked for Mussolini’s regime, even when they had directed Fascist films, they had produced work of lasting value, the editorialists at Quarta parete explained: “we have no difficulty in recognizing that under Fascism there arose in Italy a film industry that was in many respects reputable, and it would only be right to save that industry from the ruin to which Fascism has led the entire country.” (Charles L. Leavitt IV)
