But, ironically, his film feels less “real” and meaningful to his co-workers.įellini’s techniques opened my eyes to a whole new way of storytelling.Ĩ1⁄2 completely overwhelmed me when I first watched it. In an attempt to bring some truth into his life, he has filled his new movie with characters based on his own relationships and episodes from his childhood. Whether it’s choosing which actress to cast, or deciding whether to stay with his wife or his mistress, he finds himself caught in lies and avoidance.
As the production costs rise, the director becomes more and more paralyzed with indecision, in both his professional and personal lives. He has retreated to a mineral spa to take the waters and try to find his muse - and has brought his entire production team with him. The film is about a successful Italian director who is having trouble with his next picture, a big-budget science-fiction movie that he has no passion for. Then I saw a film that changed everything for me: Federico Fellini’s 81⁄2. In all my spare time I continued to make shorts, but never for a moment did I allow myself to think I could make a career out of it. In high school, I began making short films as a hobby, but when I went to college, I held firm and chose to study law. Not exactly a glamorous dream, but I was a very practical kid. When I was little, I always dreamed of becoming a lawyer.
