The City of Women (1980) - Fellini
In Pictures:
Fellini obviously has issues with women, so as von Trier. But when Fellini does it, it just comes out funnier and much more charming. It's just the way it is. Again, mindbogglingly creative, thoroughly exhausting.
Fellini's Casanova (1976) - Fellini
in pictures:
I've been looking for Fellini's Casanova for a long time ever since I saw the profile of Donald Sutherland as the famed lover, looking like a drag queen. The film is fantastically absurd to the max. We follow our hero- poet, philosopher, scientist and all around enlightened man who happens to have a stamina of a stallion, as he conquers every female in his path throughout Europe. Fellini's penchant for big women and circus are in full bloom here. Sutherland is at his freakish best.
