A farmer plans to kill this leader but loses interest at a brothel in the film Love and Anarchy, whose director also set her film Seven Beauties under this leader’s rule. Red and white flowers form a giant model of this leader’s head in a film inspired by the director’s boyhood, whose title translates to “I Remember.” A studio founded by this leader hosted filming of Ben-Hur and has a name meaning “Cinema City.” An official under this leader struggles over whether to kill his former professor in the film The Conformist. A genre that began at the end of this leader’s rule includes a film in which a crying boy and his father walk away in a crowd after the father is nearly arrested for theft. For 10 points, the end of what leader’s reign gave rise to a genre of neorealist films like Bicycle Thieves? ■END■
