Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Italian is a 1915 film directed by Reginald Barker.Beppo is a gondolier in Venice. He is in love with Annette, but her father won't let them get married until Beppo makes enough money to support her. Beppo sails to America, where he sets up a shoeshine stand while getting a side job turning out the Italian vote for Corrigan, an Irish political boss. Eventually, he sends for Annette to join him. They get married and have a baby they name Tony, but their happiness is interrupted when Tony comes down a fever during a New York heat wave.The Italian is startlingly sophisticated for a film made in 1915, to the point where many viewers regard it as superior to The Birth of a Nation (1915)—and not just because the latter film is blatantly racist. Like The Birth of a Nation (1915), The Italian has a place in the National Film Registry.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with the Gothic Horror novel by Ann Radcliffe. | |

Framing Device | |
| The Italian / int_1e1afc1b | comment |
Framing Device: A seemingly pointless one in which lead actor George Beban, apparently playing himself, is shown at his home reading a novel called The Italian. Then the story, with Beban playing the lead character, takes place. Then the film ends with Beban-as-Beban finishing the book. | |
