In the end, the prodigal son returned because his wife and children left. The worst thing is the young man with a literary dream who took the script to find a stage play master, but the master turned out to be a ferocious gay man. At the end, the brother-in-law (it should be Fellini himself) who wants to escape from the small town to the big city stands on the train and looks at every family and friends sleeping in bed from the perspective of the train leaving the distance. .

I Vitelloni quotes

  • Sandra Rubini: I want to die!

    Signora Rubini: What? You want to die, now that you're Miss Mermaid?

  • Francesco Moretti: You little weasel! I swear by your poor mother that your foul escapades are over! That girl's father is a decent guy. Worked all his life, like me, idiot that I am, to support his family honestly. You'll marry her, if I have to kick your ass all the way to the church.
