COMMENTS
Late addition to Festival, not in catalogue.
OTHER
In his latest film, Italian master Frederico Fellini captures a world of uproarious misadventure, insanity and comic lust, as well as one of poetry, dreams and delicate adoration. Roberto Benigni (Down by Law) stars as Salvini, a poet, visionary and saintly innocent who takes delight in the life of his small Emilian village and his secret love for the moon-faced Aldina.
FACTOID #177
In 2000 animator Faith Hubley was the recipient of the Persistence of Vision Award. One year later, her daughter Emily appeared at the Festival with her bandmates, Yo La Tengo, to perform a score accompanying the silent underwater films of Jean Painlevé.
