Is this worth almost three hours? It's been on the watchlist for years.

Yes, it is excellent and is my 140th favourite film of all time.

7.5/10


I must admit I was very intrigued with this movie so much that I saw it twice in two days. But the beginning of the end with Fellini and degeneracy. Kind of a degenerate movie.

Couldn't stand that movie
50s Fellini is great, though

I thought you were a big fan of all these Italian movies.

I think Italy had the best ratio, but they can't all be great.

Yes.

First watch in... 2014? felt like a massive discovery; one of the most different and liberating things I had seen. The structure, the cinematography, the ladies... loved them all. Last re-watch in 2022 (whew) gave me this existential punch in the gut, one whole day later...
It's terrifying.
