"Provides a well-rounded view of Fellini. . . . The material interestingly helps clarify Fellini's film work, and his fans will enjoy this stimulating and intellectual 'biography.'"--Library JournalOne of the greatest Italian filmmakers, Federico Fellini (1920-1993) created such masterpieces as La Strada, La Dolce Vita, 8 1/2, Juliet of the Spirits, Satyricon, and Amarcord. His prodigious body of work evokes Pirandello, existentialism, "the silence of God," as well as show business. Critics have accused him of being a charlatan, hypocrite, clown, and demon, and have hailed him as a magician, poet, genius, and prophet. Fellini on Fellini is a fascinating collection of his articles, interviews, essays, reminiscences, and table talk, carefully arranged to chart the progress of his life and work. There are boyhood memories of his hometown, Remini, and his highly improbable beginnings as a scriptwriter for Rossellini; letters to Jesuit priests and Marxist critics defending his first international success, La Strada; anecdotes and revelations about the making of La Dolca Vita, 8 1/2, and The Clowns; and insights into all aspects of filmmaking.

Coloratissimo viaggio negli sterminati territori della fantasia di un genio, questo volume ha aggiunto un fondamentale tassello allo studio dell'esperienza creativa del grande regista. Un libro pubblicato in collaborazione con la Fondazione Fellini di Rimini, in cui le pagine illustrate sono precedute dall'introduzione di Tullio Kezich e seguite da una nota di Vincenzo Mollica, massimi esperti e amici personali del maestro scomparso.

"Ich habe nur ein Leben, und das habe ich dir erzählt. Dies ist mein Testament, denn mehr habe ich nicht zu sagen." -- Fredericeo Fellini to Charlotte Chandler. Das gesamte autobiographische Material, das Frederico Fellini der renommierten Journalisten und Buchautorin Charlotte Chandler in vielen Jahren anvertraute, hat sie postum zu einer Autobiographie zusammengefügt. Der Filmschöpfer spricht über alle Themen, die ihn als Mensch und Künstler bewegt haben und die in dieser Ausführlichkeit in keiner anderen Publikatioi zu finden sind.
