99.  ANTONIO RICCI
played by Lumberto Maggiorani in Bicycle Thieves
Nothing is more tragic than the desperate measures that proud father Antonio Ricci must resort to in order to recover his stolen bicycle.  He soon finds himself becoming something he never would have imagined: a criminal.  As this realization hits, Antonio tries to muster his dignity, knowing that the eyes of his son are always on him.  A devastating, yet sympathetic, character.
