If you loved And the Ship Sails On, try Roma
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Federico Fellini, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to And the Ship Sails On, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Roma is
The film turns Rome into Fellini’s carnival mirror, reflecting nostalgia and absurdity through a famous citizen’s wandering gaze. A loose accumulation of vignettes follows him through the city’s neon and shadows. It’s less a story than an overstuffed daydream you forget upon waking.
