Life is a Feast: The Cinema of Federico Fellini
Fellini's sensuous spirit, wry realism, and carnivalesque hallucinations all add up to a luscious cinematic universe you'll want to spend weeks basking in, which is why this spring screening series just makes sense. SIFF Cinema Uptown will continue waving in the season by showcasing the director's best films restored by the Fellini Foundation, Martin Scorsese, and Gucci. To close out the series this week they'll screen Ginger and Fred, the only one of Fellini's films in which he appeared with his Oscar-winning wife Giulietta Masina. Cinephiles: don't miss this special evening—Festa Italia and longtime SAM film curator Greg Olson are having Ginger and Fred flown in from Rome for the screening.
