It is not difficult to say that it is not difficult to create

Whether it is realism, freehand realism or postmodern stream of consciousness, these are just the differences in the way of expression. For a creator, the most important thing is whether to be honest with yourself or not to express your heart truthfully. This is whether a work can be successful or not. The key to impressing others Fellini has made great achievements in terms of fame after directing seven and a half films. Everyone expects his next work to be even more brilliant. He himself is caught in the creative myth of this different voice. Just when he was hesitating about what to make in the next movie, he suddenly thought at a colleague's birthday party whether to make this kind of creative confusion and confusion. As a result, he shot the masterpiece "Eight and a Half" that made him world-renowned. For a moment, if Fellini, who was confused at that time, forced himself to make a movie that he felt confused at that time, I dare not say that it must be bad, but there must be no such masterpiece "Eight and a Half" Fellini The rest of the films, regardless of the realism in the early stage and the freehand brushwork in the later stage, are actually reflecting their real experiences and thoughts. They seem to be profound but they are simple, so it is difficult to say that art is not difficult or difficult. Many so-called artists try to imitate the masters. Works are often shot out of some four dissimilar things because they only imitate other people's skin but do not understand the real core of other people's things, no matter how good they imitate, they are only superficial or even just a mere imitation, only their own things are truly honest and can impress others So it’s hard to say it’s hard to create, it’s not hard to say it’s not hard, it’s not difficult, don’t look for it in the clouds and fog, as long as you express yourself truthfully, you’re expressing the world

  • 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.
