The whole movie is black and white, and the process of watching it is like entering an absurd and real dream. It presents Rome in 1960, the living state of the middle class and the upper class with nothingness, estrangement, emptiness, degeneration, drunkenness and death.
The protagonist is a handsome man Marcello, a tabloid reporter. He is considered a middle- and lower-class class. Because of his work, he wanders in the upper class. A journalist who was quite idealistic was transformed into a degenerate.
A movie is made up of many images, many discrete pieces.
1. The beginning of the film is a very famous scene, a plane flying with a statue of Jesus in the sky and slowly moving away, Marcello and bikini girls are separated from each other (these girls are really slender and graceful, and the women in the whole film are beautiful).
2. "You have nothing to worry about, you are so rich, even if you fall, you will not land on your head." Marcello said to his lover, Ma. The two gave a brothel a bustard a ride and spent the night together in her damp basement room. I was amazed at the randomness and arbitrariness of Rome at that time, and it was amazing. Maybe I will not live in my life as they were free in 1960.
3. Marcello's girlfriend Emma committed suicide by taking poison and was rescued.
4. Sylvia, a famous Swiss movie star, came to the scene. She was so charming in front of everyone and loved by everyone, but her boyfriend slapped her in public and slapped Marcello who was with her.
5. Talk to Steiner in the church and play the organ.
6. Visit the Virgin Mary's miraculous event, crazy pilgrimage scenes, two children said that they saw the Virgin Mary here and there, and the wounded people sought healing, but died in the wind and rain.
7. Go to Steiner's party, a big house, friends who talk about art, two lovely children, and your girlfriend tells Marcello that you will get everything like this in the future.
8. Marcello was interrupted by a girl listening to songs while writing in a seaside restaurant. The girl looked like an angel.
9. My father visited, went to restaurants and nightclubs with Marcello, had a carnival with the girls, and finally went home with the girls but suddenly felt uncomfortable. Ignoring Marcello's insistence, he decided to take a taxi to catch the train and leave.
10. I met another female friend to go to the castle party, and then met my lover Ma. The two of them spit love in the space between the empty rooms, and Ma was intimate with another stranger or a man of the same class at the same time.
11. After quarreling, breaking up, and arguing with his girlfriend Emma again, Marcello still drove back and took Emma home.
12. Friend Steiner killed his two children and committed suicide. Marcello was shocked, maybe he was out of fear. . . . . . Is it because of this incident that Marcello's inner order and world were overturned, and his beliefs collapsed.
13. When a woman got divorced, Marcello smashed the glass door of a friend's house and led everyone into the party. He even led the divorced woman's striptease and dressed a drunken girl as a chicken. Have fun and be drunk until dawn.
14. A group of people went to the beach at dawn to see a close-up of the fisherman hitting a huge, weird-looking long-dead fish and staring at the dead fish many times.
15. Marcello saw the girl on the opposite bank with an angelic face, and saw that she was gesturing and saying something to him, but he couldn't hear or understand, and was dragged away by his friends.
The whole image is a bit difficult to look at, but in those days, the skirts were good-looking, the makeup was good-looking, the girls were graceful, the guys were handsome and handsome, and the cars were small and practical. a few days.
Steiner, who committed suicide in the film, said: "The most miserable life is better than a protected life in an organized society where everything is accurately calculated." I don't know if the director Fellini wanted to express it.
Fellini, a famous Italian director, interprets Italian neorealism, and has a soft spot for circuses and clowns. "If I were a clown, then the film would be my circus." There are circuses in the film at many parties Fragment of the show.
