Review of City of Women (1980) by Margarita S — 09 Sep 2015
The first few scenes of this film are beautifully and theatrically choreographed. They are visually appealing and quite difficult to pull off with such fluidity. Fellini makes his viewers feel like they're right in the centre of the action.
It's initially a clever film with some overarching commentary on feminism, but it quickly stumbles down a rabbit hole with Fellini's fantastical style erupting into a mish-mash of scenes that lose the thread.
Too bad it got away from him. Some really imaginative and strange individual scenes though.
