In Reply to: I only give 8 1/2 a 3 1/2 on my list of great movies, and that's when I'm bored enough to watch it! posted by Audiophilander on November 21, 2002 at 16:29:16:
There's so many double and triple meanings behind what is put on and off the screen. Scenes shot on location feel surreal yet those shot on fabricated sets have a strong tone of believability. Dream sequences mesh with actuality so much towards the end that one isn't certain if the end scene is real or an afterlife sequence from the suicide.Fellini just didn't know which way to go with the film so he put all possibilities on the screen at the same time and left it up to the viewers perception to decide the path. For every path the viewer could interpret, it ends up making sense. Fellini plays with our minds previsualization capacity, stretches our visual perception, and fools our memories.
Scaffoldings are built towards the sky and encompass nothing but what is imagined. What was filmed gives no definite structure but ultimately conveys several lucid ideas. It redefines narrative film and shows a glimmer of potential of what can be done with the medium.
