(Producer) "You made the right choice. Trust me, today is the most beautiful day for you. I know it was a tough decision, but our great director, I say this because I know you, Your sanity will prevail in the end. Life is always full of chaos, there is no need to add chaos to the chaos. Losing money is something that producers often encounter. I congratulate you, you have no choice, you should have It's been a while. You've been doing it for so long, you should have done it a long time ago. Believe me, you don't need to regret it, it's better to stop filming than to continue filming things that don't make sense. In fact, life is not really worth it The source of survival. For the producer, he lost knowledge and money, but for you, he lost everything. It's better to give up than to continue to survive. Let's clean up the mess. In the end, what we need is clean, Clean and sterilized things, we are suffocated by pictures, sounds and words, we cannot come and go in nothingness, the true meaning of true art is to go from existence to nothing, and qualified artists should declare and commit themselves to silence... What is his (Ryan Pod's) most beautiful poem? He doesn't want to write anymore, he's going to Africa. If we can't have everything, then true perfection is blank. Forgive me for quoting all the time, do what we can. Our real mission is to sweep away the failures of millions of people who are desperate to get to the light and actually leave a movie behind you, like the mutilation left behind by a cripple. This is What kind of deformed life? Your sins will inspire future generations. How do you connect these fragments of life that are beneficial to future generations? Vague memories, shadows of people you never loved..."

(Fellini) "I was so shocked by this sudden happiness, as if I was suddenly born again. Forgive me, lovely people, I don't understand, I don't know. I accept you naturally, love you, It's that simple. Louisa, I'm relieved, everything is better now, full of meaning, full of truth. I wish I could explain it to you, but I don't know how to do it. The confusion of my life is really a portrait of me , confusion is the tragedy of my life, I have not been a true self, and I am no longer afraid to speak the truth of the unknown. I have searched, but have not found, this is the only way I can feel life, so that I can Face you with no guilt. Life is a celebration, let's spend it together.

  • Guido: Enough of symbolism and these escapist themes of purity and innocence.

  • Guido: I thought my ideas were so clear. I wanted to make an honest film. No lies whatsoever. I thought I had something so simple to say. Something useful to everybody. A film to help bury forever all the dead things we carry around inside. Instead, it's me who lacks the courage to bury anything at all. Now I'm utterly confused, with this tower on my hands. I wonder why things turned out this way. Where did I lose my way? I really have nothing to say, but I want to say it anyway. Why don't those spirits of yours come to my aid? You always said they had lots of messages for me. Let them get to work.

    Rossella: I've already told you: your attitude is all wrong. You're curious in a childish way. You want too many guarantees.

    Guido: Fine, but what do they say?

    Rossella: The same as always. They're very reasonable. They know you very well.

    Guido: Well then?

    Rossella: They say you're free, but you have to choose. And you don't have much time. You have to hurry.
