April 26, 1947. NY Daily News. Under the title “The Little Martyr”, De Sica’s heartrending 1944 “The Children Are Watching Us” (I bambini ci guardano) made a furtive first appearance in New York. A few blocks over at the Avenue on 6th Avenue, his “Shoe Shine” was getting enormous acclaim. This earlier masterpiece was not even reviewed by the New York Times…until it was revived at the Thalia Soho in the late 1980s!
