What are your favorite classic Italian movies?

I was born in Italy, but I have lived in France, Germany and the United States too. I like movies from all of these places, but Italian classics have a special place in my heart. I have DVD’s of some that were made before I was born. Federico Fellini movies are fascinating.

Amarcord (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]


Amarcord (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]


$20.75


From moment to moment and shot by shot, Amarcord delivers more sheer pleasure than any other Federico Fellini movie. That’s not to say it’s his greatest film, or that anything in it rivals the emotional, lyrical, or metaphysical wallop of the finest passages in Nights of Cabiria, 8 1/2, La Strada, or even La Dolce Vita, the big early-’60s crossover hit that made the director king of the internatio…

8 1/2 (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]


$27.13


Federico Fellini’s 1963 semi-autobiographical story about a worshipped filmmaker who has lost his inspiration is still a mesmerizing mystery tour that has been quoted (Woody Allen’s Stardust Memories, Paul Mazursky’s Alex in Wonderland) but never duplicated. Marcello Mastroianni plays Guido, a director trying to relax a bit in the wake of his latest hit. Besieged by people eager to work with him, …

La Dolce Vita (2-Disc Collector's Edition)


La Dolce Vita (2-Disc Collector’s Edition)


$14.98


At three brief hours, La Dolce Vita, a piece of cynical, engrossing social commentary, stands as Federico Fellini’s timeless masterpiece. Arich, detailed panorama of Rome’s modern decadence and sophisticated immorality, the film is episodic in structure but held tightly in focus by the wandering protagonist through whom we witness the sordid action. Marcello Rubini (extraordinarily played by Marce…

L’Auberge Espagnole (The Spanish Apartment)


$3.86


An absolute delight, L’Auberge Espagnole captures a moment in a life, seemingly about nothing and everything all at once. Xavier (Romain Duris), a young Parisian not sure what his life is about, decides to spend a year in Barcelona studying economics–leaving behind his unhappy girlfriend (Audrey Tautou, Amélie) but joining an international mix of students in a hectic, crowded apartment.

The 3 Tenors in Concert 1994


$6.75


It’s not opera; it’s not a pop concert; it’s not Broadway. It’s all of these and none of them. Once you accept the fact that this sequel to the original blockbuster concert recording is less about music and more about entertainment and the power of musical personalities, you can appreciate what you’re hearing as an event–phenomenal and bizarre, momentous and frivolous. This is an occasion to…
