Unstructured and exploratory avant-garde movie.
It has been almost 60 years since this movie was produced and, to me, it hasn't aged well at all. I can't really comment on the eventual merits of the cinematography and photography. But as far as story telling goes, it's very disappointing.
It's true there are funny moments of all sorts: absurdist, satirical, self referential meta, criticism of society, poking fun at gender, etc. But the problem is that, at least during the first half of the movie, there isn't any proper storytelling, it feels like it's just an amalgamation of scenes. And it's after that that things become clearer: it tells the story of a director trying to make a movie while dealing with all the ghosts from his past and present, mostly relating to women and art. And the format blurs reality and dreams together.
Critics may praise the movie, and if you come with awe and reference before you start watching it, you may be biased and carried to praise it as well. But overall it's a convoluted movie that leaves too much for the viewers to unpeel. YMMV especially if you're a(n aspiring) director.




Claudia: I don't understand. He meets a girl that can give him a new life and he pushes her away?
Guido: Because he no longer believes in it.
Claudia: Because he doesn't know how to love.
Guido: Because it isn't true that a woman can change a man.
Claudia: Because he doesn't know how to love.
Guido: And above all because I don't feel like telling another pile of lies.
Claudia: Because he doesn't know how to love.


Guido: What is this sudden happiness that makes me tremble, giving me strength, life? Forgive me, sweet creatures. I hadn't understood, I didn't know. It's so natural accepting you, loving you. And so simple. Luisa, I feel I've been freed. Everything seems so good, so meaningful. Everything is true. I wish I could explain. But I didn't know how to. So. Everything is confused again, as it was before. But this confusion is... me. Not as I'd like to be, but as I am. I'm not afraid anymore of telling the truth, of the things I don't know, what I'm looking for and haven't found. This is the only way I can feel alive and I can look into your faithful eyes without shame. Life is a celebration. Let's live it together! This is all I can say Luisa, to you or the others. Accept me for what I am, if you want me. It's the only way we might be able to find each other.
Luisa Anselmi: I don't know if what you said to me is right. But I can try if you help me.


Guido: I really have nothing to say, but I want to say it anyway.


Guido: Hold it. Let me have a look at you. No, your makeup should be more...
Carla: ...more what?
Guido: Like a whore.
