Federico Fellini (1920-1993) was one of the most inventive
filmmakers and to this day one of the best loved. Director of many
celebrated films--among them "La Strada "(1954), "The Nights of
Cabiria "(1957), "La Dolce Vita "(1960), "Otto e Mezzo "(1963), and
"Amarcord "(1973)--he created melancholy, magical worlds peopled by
clowns, dreamers, conmen, trumpeters, and werewolves. This book
explores the forms and substances, significances and
insignificances, and objects and shadows in Fellini's work--the
dance and music of his characters, the color, light, and movement
in his images. "Fellini Lexicon "accompanies Fellini's films,
rather than seeking to possess them, taking pleasure in their
incongruities, exaggerations, absur-dities, and surprises. The
entries are reversible, overlapping, often unlikely, combining
careful analysis of the films with a celebration of their richness.
"Fellini Lexicon "is a delightfully original approach to Fellini's
work and to the practice of film criticism.
