Items related to Fellini on Fellini
Like a colossus, Federico Fellini bestrides the history of Italian cinema. Four times winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Film, over the course of his career Fellini created a body of work - La Strada, La Dolce Vita, 8 1/2, Roma, to name a few - that was distinctly his own.
He called the cinema a circus, and stated that if he hadn't become a film-maker he would have been a circus director. Together with actors like Marcello Mastroianni and Giulietta Masina he created films that were visually and emotionally rich, comic and profoundly moving.
This book is a free-ranging series of discussions that reach deep into the heart of Fellini's creative process, illustrated by the drawings and sketches that were an indispensable part of his artistic process.

From the Back Cover:
Fellini on Fellini is a fascinating collection of his articles, interviews, essays, reminiscences, and table talk, carefully arranged to chart the progress of his life and work. There are boyhood memories of his hometown, Remini, and his highly improbable beginnings as a scriptwriter for Rossellini; letters to Jesuit priests and Marxist critics defending his first international success, La Strada; anecdotes and revelations about the making of La Dolca Vita, 8 1/2, and The Clowns; and insights into all aspects of filmmaking. Here, Fellini reveals, as no one else can, a rich digest of his brilliant and controversial career.
