If you loved La Dolce Vita, try 8½
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 Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to La Dolce Vita, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What 8½ is
Rome, early summer, a film set abandoned. A director's creative block manifests in chaotic fantasies and nostalgic escapes, as his personal and professional life converge in a luxurious resort. Fellini critiques the vanity of artistic expression.
