Film Studies Essay – Nights of Cabiria

Alex Mattaway

The movie Nights of Cabiria starts and ends with the same scenario. At the beginning of the movie you see a scene with Cabiria, the main character in the story, with her ‘boyfriend’, but it turns out that he only wanted her money, and at the end of the movie she is with her new ‘boyfriend’, but he is only after her money. In both scenes she completely trusts both of them and they take advantage of her. But in both cases she is able to rebound and come back stronger In the beginning of the movie both Cabiria and her boyfriend Giorgio are  by a cliff side, but when Cabiria is not paying attention he steals her purse and pushes her into the river so that she will drown, but she is  saved by some of the locals who happened to be by the river. At first she is in denial and she does not want to believe that Giorgio actually stole her purse but that he just got scared when she ‘fell’ in and ran away, but she eventually realizes how naïve she had been. Cabiria is able to conquer the fact that she was used and taken advantage of and afterwards become stronger. Cabiria is able to go back to her normal life after her incident, until she meets Oscar. Oscar sweeps her of her feet with his kindness and generosity. She falls deeply in love with him. Cabiria lets her guard down and allows him to penetrate her defenses. Despite the warnings she receives, Cabiria sells her house and takes all her money in her bank account so that she and Oscar can go together and start a new life. Oscar wants to take Cabiria to the woods to show her the view from the woods. She never should have gone but she soon realizes her mistakes when he takes her to a cliff where she realizes that he plans to steal her money and throw her off the cliff. She is destroyed when she finds out that the person who she is madly in love with only intention was to strip her of all that she owned. She wishes death upon her self because she could not take the grief that she has gone through. At the rock bottom of her soul she sees that both of her loves were feign. All they wanted from her but her possessions, but in spite of all the misfortune that is bestowed upon her she is able to rise up and grow from both. The purpose of Nights of Cabiria is to show that it is possible to change and grow from every experience, good or bad.
