This movie is great! Hilarious!


Althought there are a couple of scenes that drag on too long and some special effect errors, this film is yet another Fellini classic. I would say that this film is almost as good, but not as good as 8 1/2.

Too bad I have not seen it. It is not available in my country (France).

Are you sure? I've got a region 2 DVD (Germany), so perhaps you should try and look again. Good luck!

I'm glad to find a few other fans of this movie. Very underrated.

I agree. The convention at the start had me a bit tepid but the movie very shortly blows that away from the teenage girls in the car onward. I would say it has a good start (the convention), amazing middle (the teenage girls in cars up to the tunnel under the bed) and an excellent ending.

I saw this at a period in life when I was very low and it made me feel good with its adoration of humanity and life. I rate it among my favourite Fellini.

Yeah, what you said.

it´s a terrible companion piece to eight and a half. although his best films are toby dammit, juliet of the spirits, satyricon, casanova and the ship sails on... of course doesn´t matter my personal favorites.

I loved it too. Very funny. The chaos at the Feminist Convention reminded me of some of the scenes in the more recent Mother! from 2017.
