8½

Literally "To All the Girls' I've Loved Before". Fellini was meta way before being meta was cool. Stories like these are a weakness of mine. Bringing together the voices of artists, critics, businessmen and most importantly himself in a masterful way, this film is a tour de force of autobiographical film making. A bold and brazen answer to "when will Fellini make a romance film?" in the form of an unconventional storyline that defies any and all genre conventions. It captures the truth of "what does it mean to love" from a male perspective.
