Amarcord
Dir: Federico Fellini, 1974, Italy (8*)
Best Foreign Film (AA)
Probably Fellini’s most accessible film, as he fondly recalls his childhood through cinema, perhaps rose-colored by time and distance, but enjoyable nonetheless. Paints a vivid picture of rural Italy, how one’s life is shaped by religion, family, school, early friends, and adolescent fantasies and dreams. Here, Fellini’s fantasies make a more universal connection.
