Which reminds me of "Bicycle Thieves". Virtually the entire soundtrack is
looped -- in an essentially dead studio. It drives me crazy.

If you mean "The Bicycle Thief," that is done deliberately to make it
like a 1950s Italian film. It was standard practice back then to film MOS
and dub, since it would regularly be dubbed into multiple languages anyway.
