Media filenames in italics

What does it mean if one of my video file's name is in italics?  Here is a screenshot of what I'm seeing in Premiere Pro.  The last file in the list has its name in italics.  Why and what does it mean?

My computer stuff...

2017 iMac Pro, 3GHz 10-core Intel Xeon W, Memory 64 GB 2666 MHz DDR4, Radeon Pro Vega 64 16 GB

OS 11.7.5 (BigSur)

Premiere Pro 23.4.0 (Build 56)

    This post suggests media pending. Save your file, then right click on the file and try to replace footage and import again. Might mean the file is damaged or your drive is full

      Thanks Mike!  The file in question is corrupted/damaged.  It was still playing in premiere which was confusing.  I opened the file in quicktime and playback froze halfway through the clip.  Thanks for the help.

        Just to clarify... the file seems to play fine, but why the italics on the file name?
