If you find this movie incomprehensible, it's not your problem, it's a postmodern problem.

Since each historical period defines its own horizon of expectations, the overall value and meaning of any text is never fixed or one-size-fits-all. In fact, when I was watching this movie, one thought that...

First of all, the title is ironic. The entire film presents a disorganized, chaotic life. Every character in the film is morbid, except for the angel-like waitress. And the protagonist Marcello is also lost in the chaos.

He should have come to Rome with ideals. His father was a rich man, and...

#FelliniRetrospective#4.5; It took nearly 3 hours to read the high-end style, half of which is due to the flashy city of Rome, and the other half is inseparable from the director's excellent scheduling. The American movie star Sylvia is the most classic outing, especially the momentary cut of the scene symbolizing the point of view in the fountain, which brings audio-visual skills to the extreme. In the second act, the "Virgin" appeared on a rainy night, and the crowd ran with torches, continuing "Cabylia"'s attitude towards religious fanaticism. What's more interesting is that as the thread progresses, the protagonist has changed from suffering from paparazzi voyeurism to the object of the camera/audience's gaze. Therefore, although the structure of this film is loose, it is not a plane and disorderly pile of fragments, but makes people feel distracted. The immediacy, non-narrative rhythm of several carnivals is seized, leading to the death with a trajectory within the spirit. The round eyes of the strange fish on Dawn Beach reflect the emptiness of everyone's soul, as in the last episode of "Night". The girl's silent call corresponds to the passing era of innocence.

It's hard to have a movie that is as elegant and gorgeous, but at the same time it makes the viewer feel desperate as the story progresses. Fellini's group play is too amazing! Who can't say that crazy photojournalists, eye-opened American models, high-class people who are always partying, and those running around chasing the "Virgin" are actually the same kind of people? The only person with a bit of a brain can't get a good ending.
