like I said, "The 400 blows" by Truffaut reminded me of my childhood growing up.
It's for sure on any list one of the top five films ever made.
"La Strada" is my favorite Fellini film, but 8 1/2 is his best film.
I truly believe 8 1/2 is the greatest film ever made in the history of cinema. It's about an empty man who is unable to love anyone who searches for the meaning of life. It mixes surreal dreams with reality. No one has ever captured the essence of what it's like to be a human being as Fellini has in 8 1/2.
La Dolce Vita is another phenominal story on humanity.
Must See's of Fellini - La Strada, La Dolce Vita, 8 1/2, Amarcord, and if you liked them Nights of Cabria, I vitelloni, Juliet of The Spirits, and Fellini's Roma
