I Vitelloni (Fellini, 1953): BFI Southbank, NFT3, 5pm


This film (part of the Federico Fellini season at the BFI Southbank) is also being screened on January 4th, 7th, 19th and 21st. Full details here.

Chicago Reader review:
Well worth seeing, this early Fellini (1953) follows the fortunes of five rootless, middle-class young men in a small town on the Adriatic, and forms a fascinating companion piece to his Amarcord. Though it's still realist in approach, its aura of bitter nostalgia places it squarely among Fellini's most personal and atmospheric works.

Here (and above) is the trailer.
