I am really surprised L'avventura is not on this list. Granted I am not an expert on Italian film but it is on pretty much every other important film list it seems.

Bravo Nilofarish, you made it! Where did you find "Leoni al sole" that is not available anywhere in DVD? And also other 5-10 movies in this list are very very difficult to check even for italians.

@aeng
could you please share with us the link of that better list?
Anyway, this list has been created by a very respectful group of specialists (italian critics and directors) and they focused only on the period 1942-1978. As they said, this 101 films are maybe not the best ones but "we believe they are the most useful in re-opening an interrupted dialogue". Some of them were not available on DVD in Italy and they have been released recently thanks to this list.
