Amarcord (1973)
10/10
Captured into a sense of concern and embarrassment
5 December 2010
Wonderful film – Amarcord is a fairy tale for grownups. You remember? there was a time where a fairy tale meant everything to us – this film is full of marvels, one unforgettable scene after another, every frame of this film animates us emotionally, spiritually and politically. What does it mean to grow up? and once we are adults what are we supposed really to do with ourselves ? Fellini doesn't answer this question neither tries to do so. He describes a microcosm of memories, of feelings, of experiences, of sensations, of fears... he does what he's best at – evoking emotions through moving images. He takes us back in time, he brings to life our past; we remember, we acknowledge, captured into a sense of concern and embarrassment.
