In Italian with English subtitles.

From the review by Bosley Crowther, New York Times, April 30, 1953: "A cruel and ironic accident that happened in Rome two years ago, when 200 girls crashed through a staircase while crowding in line to apply for one small job, provides the literal inspiration for another vivid, raw-boned Italian film, "Rome, 11 O'clock," which plunged ungently into the World Theatre yesterday. Written by Cesare Zavattini, who wrote "The Bicycle Thief," and directed by Giuseppi de Santis, who guided the savage "Bitter Rice," this new contemplation of a mass misfortune was destined to be caustic from the start—and that it is, with a full measure of humanity and humor, to boot."

5 of 5 Gritty February 22, 2023
Reviewer: Carl Hinrichs from Fleetwood, PA United States  
Gritty example of Italian neo-realism. A superb, emotionally enervating film focusing on a handful of the 150 girls who fell when a 3 story staircase, on which they had congregated for a job interview, collapsed. Based on an actual tragic occurrence the year before the film.

Takes itself a bit too seriously, but very well done with tons of lovely young Italian women.
