In June, Turner Classic Movies&#8216; month-long series &#34;Great Directors&#34; will be celebrating the efforts of 52 films directors, from past and present, from Hollywood and overseas (though, as to be expected, mostly Hollywood).
Among  TCM&#8217;s &#34;greats&#34; are, inevitably, Alfred Hitchcock, Orson Welles, Billy Wilder, Steven Spielberg, and John Ford, but also Jacques Tourneur, Mervyn LeRoy, and Budd Boetticher.
Akira Kurosawa, Federico Fellini, Carol Reed, and Ingmar Bergman are four of the non-Hollywood filmmakers who have been included in the series.
Each weekday of the &#34;Great Directors&#34; series will feature  two directors &#8212;  one during the day; the other at night.&#160; The daytime lineup includes  Victor Fleming  (June [...]]]></description>

In conjunction with its exhibition “Fellini’s Book of Dreams” &#8212; which is definitely worth a visit &#8212; the  Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will present a special  screening of Federico Fellini’s Academy Award-winning 1963 extravaganza 8½ on Friday, April 17, at 7:30 p.m.  at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. The evening will be hosted by Robert Rosen, dean of  the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.
There have been homages and imitations ever since (Bob Fosse&#8217;s All That Jazz comes to mind), but no self-analytical film that I&#8217;ve seen gets even close to what Fellini accomplished in 8½, while very few films about the art of moviemaking have been nearly as artful [...]]]></description>

At Cafebabel.com, there&#8217;s a curious chat with screen legend Claudia Cardinale and French newcomer Alexandre Styker. Here&#8217;s a brief quote from the piece:
&#34;&#8217;I would have liked to have worked with Visconti too,&#8217; the young man [Styker] continues to discuss his unrealised dreams. ‘Of course,’ Claudia  replies, ‘the man was a genius! I made four films with him, he took me  all over the world and showered me with gifts.’ So he was a real  character, the legendary Italian director? ‘He used to say that I was a  kitten that could be stroked, but a kitten with claws. Visconti was a  man of the theatre, you couldn’t move a muscle if he didn’t want you  [...]]]></description>

AMARCORD Review: Part I
There are the fantasy and tall tale sequences at the hotel, narrated by the Lawyer (Luigi Rossi) &#8212; one of several Fourth Wall breakers &#8212; the fantasy marriage of fat boy Ciccio to sexy Aldina at the behest of the floral image of Mussolini, and the townsfolk rowing out to see the fantastical America-bound luxury liner, The Rex. 
Nino Rota&#8217;s score is the best thing in the film, though Giuseppe Rotunno&#8217;s cinematography is not far behind, especially in the sunset scene where Uncle Teo is coaxed down from the apple tree and back to the asylum. 
The Criterion Collection&#8217;s  two-disc DVD is a great improvement on the 1998 single-disc edition. It is a radiant film transfer, [...]]]></description>

&#160;

&#160;

By Dan Schneider of Cosmoetica:
Federico Fellini&#8217;s  Amarcord  has often been linked with Ingmar Bergman&#8217;s   Fanny &#38; Alexander as films made by old men looking back on their youth. While this is true,  Amarcord has a loose narrative structure in which the lives of many characters are detailed in comic vignettes whereas Fanny &#38; Alexander is a straight drama. 
In fact, Amarcord shares a deeper affinity with another work that was obviously influenced by it: Woody Allen&#8217;s grossly underrated Radio Days. Which of [...]]]></description>
