  I've seen this film; maybe I'm missing something here, but based on my impressions, it's much adieu about grey poupon. I think Victor "wacks-his" poetic about the flick because he gets a big thrill out of watching Marcello Mastroianni (portraying the director) wearing that cute little Italian cowboy hat! Go figure. ;^)

  Sure, AuPh ripped his fine vinyl pants grabbing hold on every park bench as they dragged him to the viewing, but he saw it!

    Good question. As you may or may not know I am very big on seeing these sorts of things in the theater. Here in L.A. we are blessed with an amazing wealth of revival houses and programs at the Director's guild, the Arclight and the Motion Picture Academy. I was going to see it last year but I was wisked away on work out of town. I am waiting for it to come back. So my question is a sincere one. Is this a movie that needs a few veiwings? If so I may just want to prime myself with the DVD before I see it in the theater.

      Only someone unfamiliar with Fellini should probably spend some time viewing his other earlier films before seeing this one. To me as soon as the first Nino Rota notes hit my ears I feel relaxed and totally at home. The great Fellini atmosphere always gives me an enormous sense of comfort.

      I don't know how familiar you are with his works, if not too much then perhaps what you are suggesting - some DVD's, but probably not that one, I think you would want to be hit with it on the big screen... some people get all the luck!
