Il Boom is a 1963 commedia all'italiana film by Italian director Vittorio de Sica.
The "boom" in the title was the Italian economic miracle which transformed the country in the span of a decade, from the late 50s to the onset of the 70s. Back in the day Italian media adopted the actual English word to indicate it, while other countries opted for national words like Wirtschaftswunder and Trente Glorieuses to indicate similar phenomena. See also post-war economic boom.
