    Indoor high-contrast lighting maximizes the beauty of black and white light and shadow. Self-awareness and dreams are constantly projected in reality, starting with surprising beginnings and ending with carnivalized metaphors. This is a movie about making a movie, and "movie-life" is isomorphic with "fake-truth", and all the casual conversations try to question the nature of both film and life. However, behind the dazzling mise-en-scène and dazzling form, it points to love and truth. Guidu has...

    Terrible director fate. I still don't know how to love, I just like to visualize everything I think. Imagery jumps, renju. I still love two episodes: the actresses rebelling and the touching circus parade at the...

    Fellini's works at the peak of maturity are also a new turn of his creation. A life that blends fantasy, memories, hallucinations, imaginations, and fragments of dreams and reality intertwined, representing a "soul in...

    Finally watched it! Amazing movie. The ensemble and the camera are amazing. Because he doesn't know how to love. The end of the bunker.

    Everything about film interweaves life with reality. A collection of movies of movies. It may take at least eight and a half times to really understand it, but it doesn't prevent it from understanding its greatness until then. Perfect scheduling, seamless integration of real dream memories and inner activities. Love this pure...

    The director's predicament, the entanglement with his wife, lover and actress, fantasy colors and big scenes, the interweaving of subconsciousness and reality, the process of self-resistance and identification. Individualism is greater than the perception of others, meaning comes from meaning to oneself. The authorities have figured out the director’s bottleneck for bystanders and fans. I heard people talking about the film, but because I don’t understand it, I don’t think it’s so good. It’s...

    A director's creative depression and individual mental illness, and the constant appearance of various people aggravated Guido's distraught and nervous breakdown, and it completely stunned me. Regarding the reflexive filmmaking of the film, the stream of consciousness is fragmented into surreal scenes, the alienation effect of the stage performance, and the images are exquisite. Wagner's "Valkyrie" appeared twice, and Fellini was also very good at filming women. Test your concentration and see...

    The revolutionary significance of some films is far higher than the viewing experience, like the new wave, like the avant-garde, a director's irritable reality and self-obscenity, a filmmaker's confusion between film art and real life, and finally he reconciled with himself. , the movie was not filmed, or whether there is really such a project, we don't know, but only if you dare to face yourself and face life, can you reconcile with yourself and the...

    5.0 Divine Charm! After I met Fellini, the head of the five circuses, I watched the polarized "Eight and a Half". It is not only a summary of Fellini's career, but also a warm review of his friendship in this life. Give it to yourself, and also create a dream for fans who travel in light and shadow. Veils, sunglasses, even such small things exude a charming charm. Dream, past, reality, where are the boundaries? No. Therefore, the head of the circus pieced together piece by piece, pieced...

    The literal meaning of "Eight and a Half"

    It is no exaggeration to say that "Eight and a Half" is one of my favorite movies and a masterpiece in my heart.

    I don't study movies, let alone make movies. I don't even think I'm a fan of movie fans, but that doesn't prevent me from liking this movie that many people say is incomprehensible or...

    The story revolves around the story of a director who was planning to make a new film but ultimately failed to make it. In reality, the director deals with his wife and mistress. The wife quarrelled with...

  • Guido: Enough of symbolism and these escapist themes of purity and innocence.

  • Guido: I thought my ideas were so clear. I wanted to make an honest film. No lies whatsoever. I thought I had something so simple to say. Something useful to everybody. A film to help bury forever all the dead things we carry around inside. Instead, it's me who lacks the courage to bury anything at all. Now I'm utterly confused, with this tower on my hands. I wonder why things turned out this way. Where did I lose my way? I really have nothing to say, but I want to say it anyway. Why don't those spirits of yours come to my aid? You always said they had lots of messages for me. Let them get to work.

    Rossella: I've already told you: your attitude is all wrong. You're curious in a childish way. You want too many guarantees.

    Guido: Fine, but what do they say?

    Rossella: The same as always. They're very reasonable. They know you very well.

    Guido: Well then?

    Rossella: They say you're free, but you have to choose. And you don't have much time. You have to hurry.
