Shades of things to come


Several themes dear to Fellini (or so we dare to assume based on viewing his later films) are already present in I vitelloni. The one I would like to single out is the unease of living in a small town and wanting to get out. Roma and Amarcord foreshadowed. The small town is not named, but with its seafront it might suggest Rimini (although it was shot in Ostia near Rome).
