About this product

Product Information

Federico Fellini's AMARCORD, an acclaimed semiautobiographical episodic drama, examines life in a small Adriatic village just before Mussolini's reign in the 1930s. As the weather changes and spring arrives, the village holds a festival in which it burns a symbolic bonfire and celebrates new life. This gathering in the central square is the first of many others throughout the film. Each time the community assembles, its colorful members show themselves in full force, boasting their bizarre, disjointed personalities--and pure mischief is the result. Several of the village ladies wear their eyebrows penciled on in high, provocative arches, a style that seethes sex and drama, coaxing the camera to follow them. The film takes on a circusy, chaotic tone, making it difficult to see a clear plot structure; AMARCORD instead breaks up into several memorably surreal sequences, a few of which follow a young man named Titta (Bruno Zanin) who wanders in and out of the animated provincial landscape, meeting assorted crazy characters and obsessing over sex. The beautiful clashes with the grotesque and politics and family matters blend together while sex is offset by violence in the inimitable style of Italy's late master of cinema, whose tour de force won an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

    Federico Fellini remembers life in a 1930 small Italian village in Amarcord ("I Remember") and of course with it being Fellini, his memories are "embellished" at best. It's one of those "life" movies where there is no plot to speak of, it's just everyday happenings. People die, get married and in general, live life. It's weird, because this movie in places very much reminds me of the Italian series of raunchy movies "Lollipop" (I think they were called that) when I say raunchy, I mean saucy. Nothing too sexual, just a group of young boys wanting to get some and never succeeding. It's certainly not a movie that everyone will love, in fact I am sure a lot of people will hate it and find it boring, while others will think it is a modern day classic. I think I fall between the two groups. It ...

  • Amarcord is simply Fellini's wonderful remembrance of growing up in 1930's Rimini, Italy.

    This DVD is a great value, as the visual sharpness and audio fidelity are very good. You can watch the movie in the original Italian with no subtitles, in Italian with English subtitles, or in English. The DVD has a scene table of contents, so you can view a particular scene without having to scroll through the entire movie. All in all, well worth the money if you like Amarcord.

  • intresting artistic film

    This film is intresting to say the least. The acting was kinda weak I thought but others did not agree with me. But the story was what in my mind made this a 4 ouuta 5'r. The graphics they use are like watching a painting being made.
