46 - Federico Fellini - Amarcord

48 - Federico Fellini - Orchestra Rehearsal

Ryan and Annie continue through the uncharted waters of post-Amarcord Fellini and neither find much to love this week. They break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of this allegory for the cyclical nature of society.

47 - Federico Fellini - Fellini's Casanova

Ryan and Annie trade in the childhood fun of Amarcord for the grandiose and grotesque in discussing Fellini's Casanova. Fellini indulges in theatrical artifice like never before, but does this new artistic territory help him accomplish his ultimate goal to skewer the real-life Casanova?

46 - Federico Fellini - Amarcord

In discussing a particularly fun film, Annie and Ryan spend time in Fellini's childhood and get to experience both the hilarity and tragedy of growing up. It has them reflecting on their own upbringings and laughing along the way.

45 - Federico Fellini - Fellini's Roma

After both were pretty burned by "The Clowns," Ryan and Annie return to see something a bit more beloved. But will further docufiction work for them this time? Or will this discussion on the world's continual path forward be yet another misstep?

44 - Federico Fellini - I Clowns

After the bombastic insanity of Satyricon, Fellini partnered with an Italian television network to make a docufiction about his truest passion: clowns. It is inventive, strange, and fascinating (not to mention hard to find!) but is it good?! Ryan and Annie discuss within.
