Heads up, Vancouverites — the Italian film history education continues! Two months ago, the Pacific Cinematheque hosted an extensive Pier Paolo Pasolini retrospective. Next month, it will host a retrospective dedicated to Federico Fellini, who collaborated with Pasolini on the scripts for Nights of Cabiria (1957; my comments) and, reportedly, La Dolce Vita (1960). While I have seen those two films, and part of 8½ (1963), I have not yet seen any of Fellini’s other films, so I imagine I’ll be parking my butt at the Cinematheque for much of next month. Could be tricky, though, what with all those film-festival preview screenings during the day, plus whatever other assignments I might have.
