“Dim the lights. Let the overtire begin. It’s show time. Federico Fellini’s chef d’oeuvre is an elegant, busy, rambunctious circus of a movie!”
– Vincent Canby, New York Times
“A lustful, sweaty, gluttonous poem to cinema.”
– Guillermo del Toro
Marcello Mastroianni plays Guido Anselmi, a director whose new project is collapsing around him, along with his life. One of the greatest films about film ever made, Federico Fellini’s 8½ (Otto e mezzo) turns one man’s artistic crisis into a grand epic of the cinema. An early working title for 8½ was The Beautiful Confusion, and Fellini’s masterpiece is exactly that: a shimmering dream, a circus, and a magic act.
