Review of Amarcord (1973) by Henry W — 12 Feb 2014
A great nostalgic look back at Fellini's memories. Magical, funny, sad and bittersweet. There isn't so much a narrative but rather an assortment of episodic memoirs. The humor is bizarre, at times offensive (in a good way) and always filtered through a nostalgic viewpoint, that elevates life to something grander.
Both Cinema Paradiso and Woody Allen's Radio Days owe something to this love story about the past.
