Ipswich Film Theatre - 25 April 2005 - 7.30pm
Life in an Italian provincial town is both funny and poignant, and Fellini's fourth Oscar winner guides us through its wistful, bawdy and dream-like backstories with his cartoonist's colourful brush strokes and Nino Rota's sublime music. The title means I Remember in Rimini dialect.
AUDIENCE COMMENTS: Nobody does chaos as well as the Italians, Superb; Endearing and beautifully observed; Lovely to see a new print - a much seen film, it still amuses; Today, they would be called a "disfunctional family". Amusing but strange; I am sure this was actually deep and meaningful, but I'm afraid that I could not wait for it to end.
