Federico Fellini returned to the provincial landscape of his childhood with this carnivalesque reminiscence, recreating his hometown of Rimini in Cinecitts studios and rendering its daily life as a circus of social rituals, adolescent desires, male fantasies, and political subterfuge. Sketching a gallery of warmly observed comic caricatures, Fellini affectionately evokes a vanished world haloed with the glow of memory, even as he sends up authority figures representing church and state, satirizing a country stultified by Fascism. Winner of Fellinis fourth Academy Award for best foreign-language film,Amarcordremains one of the directors best-loved creations, beautifully weaving together Giuseppe Rottunos colorful cinematography, Danilo Donatis extravagant costumes and sets, and Nino Rotas nostalgia-tinged score.
