TO LIVE IN PEACE 1947 Aldo Fabrizi, Luigi Zampa 3 10x8 STILLS

3 Original 10 inch x 8 inch Black & White Stills for the 1947 Luigi Zampa Neo-Realist Italian Drama TO LIVE IN PEACE (VIVERE IN PACE) starring Aldo Fabrizi, Joseph Garland Moore Jr., Mirella Monti, John Kitzmiller, Heinrich Bode and Ave Ninchi.

Luigi Zampa’s film takes place during the German occupation, and there is no real peace to be had. Tigna (Aldo Fabrizi), a farmer, somewhat reluctantly hides two American soldiers, one of whom is wounded, in the cellar. Drunk, the wounded soldier, who is black, one night reveals himself to Tigna’s guest, a German official, who, himself drunk, mistakes what he sees as meaning thank goodness! the war is over. Discarding Nazi racism, the official takes to the streets with the American—two instant comrades and noisy celebrants. Their mood is contagious, waking up Tigna’s neighbors; thank goodness! the war is over. Only, of course, it isn’t, and eventually Tigna and the German, attempting to flee, are both murdered by the SS..

The stills are in very good condition. One has a small piece out of the lower right corner
