Antonioni & Fellini: North vs. South (Italy as mini-model of Europe) director.vtheatre.net
... Fellini Online [nice idea]
my mini-review for amazon:
After two deaths at the end of July (Bergman and Antonioni) one more appreciates the revolution in film language, which took place in the 1960s.
Fellini has a different spot in this era of Film-Becoming-Poetry. In near future his dicoveries would be valued no less than Eisenstein's or Vertov's. In many ways Amarcord (and Rome) is more sofisticated than 8.5, which is constructed around plot (last cry of modernism), when the PoMo (late) Fellini is focusing story around thought-feeling, that is a true existential EVENT. Is possible for a requiem to be humorous?
Dante called it "Divine Comedy" ...
I hardly know any episode that doesn't belong to the poem... I think it is a philosophy piece and, maybe, should be viewed as such.
