    Superb. Don't go by amateurs like Kimberly Jones and other clueless narcissists like Gerry Peary and Ilk. Top mags like The New Yorker know what this film is all about.

    Make no mistake: this film is Fellini's spiritual testament -and absolutely not to be missed by fans of the great Italian director.

    How enlightening you find Damian Pettigrew's obsessive film depends on whether you're as adoring of Fellini as he was of himself; for the devoted, it's a gold mine.

    Mr. Pettigrew's affection for Fellini and his films animates this documentary and limits its appeal.

    It's the many thoughtful, eloquent interviews with Fellini himself that serve as the heart of the film.
