Guido Anselmi, a film director, finds himself creatively barren at the peak of his career. Urged by his doctors to rest, Anselmi heads for a luxurious resort, but a sorry group gathers—his producer, staff, actors, wife, mistress, and relatives—each one begging him to get on with the show.

this review will be short sentences that while disjointed hopefully form a whole a la the movie itself. this is the third time i have watched this film and it just gets better and better. poetry is a written art and poems don't come off well on screen but 8 1/2 is pure cinematic poetry. it is the equivalent of the best poems in the reaction it causes the audience. a film about filmmaking done in such a way that you can't look away. it's not always easy to follow and i admit i don't get everything (more on the third viewing) but boy is it fascinating to watch. marcello mastroianni is just read more

Frederico Fellini's masterwork 8 ½ is difficult to approach largely because of its reputation. Many critics also state that the film is so complex that it requires multiple viewings to understand, and this is likely to intimidate many viewers. But in truth, and in spite of its surrealistic flourishes, 8 ½ is more straight-forward than its reputation might lead you to believe. The storyline itself is very simple.

Criterion called this "The greatest film about film ever made", and i tend to agree. It loves to linger on the conversations that make the movies we love and the creative process. It ask the same question from start to finish; What is film? It answers with confidence; The most collaborative art form. Fellini, Kurosawa, Tarkovsky, Scorsese, Aster, Eggars, Villeneuve. We know all these names for their creative prowess but the people what names they know? Every single collaborator who made their dreams possible. A love letter to cinema and artist. read more
