Review of I Vitelloni (1953) by Wut S — 28 Dec 2007
Seaside small town, five young men are incapable of outgrowing their care-free lives.
Though the urge to depart one's hometown never felt emphasized enough in the film, there's an unmistakably nostalgic mood captured on the scenes. The movie portrays the falling into old habits, the fear for changes, and the prolong wait for a life-altering event.
If this is Fellini's quasi-autobiography, his later work, Roma, smooths right in after I Vitelloni's epilogue.
