An average movie

To be honest, it has been a while since I have watched this flick and maybe I should re-watch it again, at some point. Basically, when I was studying in college, I went studying for a year in Cambridge (I know, how fancy…) and I took part in this film class which was really awesome. The idea was to watch every week a movie, starring from the silent era moving forward towards the 90’s and we would then discuss the movie seen during the class. So, this flick was one selected by our teacher and, of course, I had some pretty huge expectations, especially since it was directed by the great Federico Fellini. Unfortunately, even though this movie has quite a stellar reputation, I didn’t like it much, I’m afraid. Basically, it was one of his whimsical tales, without much of a plot and this one was even downright psychedelic. Maybe I wasn’t in the right mood when I watched it but I had a rather hard time to see why it was supposed to be so great. To conclude, even though it didn’t really work for me, I still think it is worth a look though, especially if you are interested in Fellini’s work.
