Fellini's tearjerker vehicle for his actress wife, Giulietta Masina, as an indomitable Roman streetwalker, a chipper chippy, a Chaplin-esque "tramp," a lonelyheart adventuress, roaming the darkness in hopeful search of True Love, and remaining miraculously impervious to the incessant cruelties, casual and calculated, in her line of work. Sweet Charity put it into song and dance, with no damage to the verisimilitude. (1957) — Duncan Shepherd
