I'd suggest access in general is a problem. In the past, this can be simply written off as the difficulty in moving and translating the works, but this hasn't been an issue for a very long time. I'm a bit of a fair-weather fan of Italian cinema insomuch that I usually enjoy what I am able to find online that gets translated. My partner is close to fluency in Italian and loves watching Italian film to test her understanding, but we find ourselves constantly struggling to locate any reliable source for Italian film, legally or otherwise acquired. The most famous pieces of Italian cinema are certainly obtainable, but exploring the rest just seems to be a fools errand. I'm not sure whether the Italian studios don't want to take the time, if Publishers world-wide don't see the return on investment for spreading Italian film, or what is stopping access, but there can be no interest if there's no chance in getting at the film.
