Description: Marcello Mastroianni plays Guido Anselmi, a director whose new project is collapsing around him, along with his life. One of the greatest films about film ever made, Federico Fellini’s 8½ (Otto e mezzo) turns one man’s artistic crisis into a grand epic of the cinema. An early working title for 8½ was The Beautiful Confusion, and Fellini’s masterpiece is exactly that: a shimmering dream, a circus, and a magic act. Also featured is Fellini’s rarely seen first film for television, Fellini: A Director’s Notebook (1969). Produced by Peter Goldfarb, this “imagined documentary” of Fellini on Fellini is a kaleidoscope of unfinished projects, all of which provide a fascinating and candid window into the director’s unique creative process.BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESHigh-definition digital transfer of restored film elements, with uncompressed monaural soundtrackIntroduction by filmmaker Terry GilliamAudio commentary featuring film critics Gideon Bachmann and Antonio MondaFellini: A Director’s Notebook, a short film by Federico FelliniThe Last Sequence, a documentary on Fellini’s lost alternate ending for 8½Nino Rota: Between Cinema and Concert, a documentary about Fellini’s longtime composerInterviews with actor Sandra Milo, filmmaker Lina Wertmüller, and cinematographer Vittorio StoraroRare photographs from Bachmann’s collectionGallery of behind-the-scenes and production photosTrailerPLUS: Writings by Fellini and essays by critics Tullio Kezich and Alexander SesonskeAspect Ratio : 1.85:1 Is discontinued by manufacturer : No Language : Italian Product Dimensions : 1.78 x 19.05 x 13.72 cm; 113.4 g Item model number : CRRN1854BR Director : Federico Fellini Media Format : Black & White, Collector's Edition, Color, Subtitled, NTSC, Widescreen, Special Edition Run time : 2 hours and 18 minutes Release date : Jan. 12 2010 Actors : Madeleine Le Beau, Anouk Aim e, Marcello Mastroianni, Antonio Acqua, Bruno Agostini Subtitles: : English Studio : Video Service Corp.
