#162: 8 1/2 (1963)

We're going on a vacation this month through the power of cinema. We start in Italy with a look at Federico Fellini's 8 1/2. Samantha, Emily and Kristen discuss whether Guido Anselmi is a terrible human, post-WWII Italy, and why they need to hold a séance.

 

Kristen's written a book for TCM and Running Press called But Have You Read the Book? all about film adaptations! You can buy it wherever you buy books.
