I've been catching up on my Fellini recently and I love this man's style. I find many of his films to just be so absorbing, so intriguing, so immersive and so transportive. His films can be quite energetic.

1. 8 1/2 - 10/10
2. La Dolce Vita - 10/10
3. Satyricon - 9/10
4. Roma - 8/10
5. Juliet of the Sprits - 8/10
6. La Strada - 8/10
7. The Nights of Cabiria - 7/10
8. Amarcord - 6/10

I also have Casanova and I Vitelloni on my watchlist when buying new films.

1. La Dolce Vita 10/10
2. La Strada 9/10
3. 8 1/2 8,5/10
4. Variety Lights 8/10
5. Nights of Cabiria 7,5/10
6. I Vitelloni 7/10
7. Amarcord 6,5/10
8. Fellini Satyricon 6/10

Satyricon is one of the strangest and most uneven films I've seen. A lot of squandered potential.

I've seen quite a number but would like to address what I call the Italian historical trilogy here; I see you rated Amarcord (1973) a bit lower than the others. What did you think Fellini was saying about Fascism and its effect on the villagers? What about the effects and role of the Church?

I personally preferred Roma (1972) of the three. The segment of the Catholic Biscopal Fashion Show was amazing, I got a real Germanic Expressionistic vibe a la The Scarlet Empress (1934) from that.

Satyricon (1969), I thought had some interesting visuals once you get past what Pauline Kael wrote as "people walking along walla for two hours" portion but overall it wasn't my bag, baby.

Lo sceicco bianco (1952) - 7/10
La strada (1954) - 10/10
Le notti di Cabiria (1957) - 7/10
La dolce vita (1960) - sorry, a complete snoozefest, I don't even...
Boccaccio '70 (1962) - the Fellini segment lifts it to 6/10
8½ (1963) - 9/10 (ending seems a cop out)
Histoires extraordinaires (1968) - actually prefer the Malle segment to Fellini's - 9/10
Fellini - Satyricon (1969) - 9/10
Roma (1972) - 7/10
Amarcord (1973) - 9/10
Il Casanova di Federico Fellini (1976) - 6/10
La città delle donne (1980) - 7/10

All of them.

8 1/2 - 8
Juliet of the Sprits - 7

Haven't seen any in a while, might have to catch up someday

He's a truly phenomenal filmmaker. One that I didn't quite "get" at first, but have since come around to and believe he to be one of the most creative and evocative that I've seen. However, as good as his two most revered films - La Dolce Vita and 8 1/2 - are, they are not my favorites of his. I, generally, prefer his later era.

My ranking would go a bit like this.

Juliet of the Spirits
La Strada
Amarcord
And the Ship Sails On
Casanova
I Clowns
La Dolce Vita
Satyricon
8 1/2
Roma

Seen them all save 'Intervista (1987)' (on my Wish List for ages).

My humble rates for the ones I've seen:

La voce della luna (The Voice of the Moon, 1990)** 7/10 (?)
Ginger e Fred (Ginger and Fred, 1986) 10/10
E la nave va (And the Ship Sails On, 1983) 8/10
La città delle donne (City of Women, 1980)* 9/10
Prova d'orchestra (Orchestra Rehearsal, 1978) 10/10
Il Casanova di Federico Fellini (Fellini's Casanova, 1976)* 8/10
Amarcord (1973)* 10/10
Roma (Fellini's Roma, 1972) 9/10
I clowns (The Clowns, 1971, TV, doc)* 10/10
Fellini - Satyricon (1969) 8/10
Giulietta degli spiriti (Juliet of the Spirits, 1965)* 8/10
8½ (1963)* 10/10
La dolce vita (1960)* 9/10
Le notti di Cabiria (Nights of Cabiria, 1957)* 9/10
Il bidone (The Swindle, 1955) 8/10
La strada (1954) 9/10
I vitelloni (1953) 8/10
Lo sceicco bianco (The White Sheik, 1952) 8/10
Luci del varietà (Variety Lights, 1950, co-d) 8/10

Omnibus films (keep in mind I don't rate segments in such films separately):

Boccaccio '70 (1962)* 9/10
Histoires extraordinaires (Spirits of the Dead, 1968)* 8/10

His segments in both film were among (if not) the best.

Notes:
* - seen on the big screen.
** - Needs a rewatch. Seen it (on TV) dubbed in German (yeah, I was *that* desperate, LOL) so this rate should be taken with a grain of salt. I really DO need to see the original for the 'proper' (fair) rate.
