Federico Fellini (8 1/2 & Satyricon)(8 and a Half) - S01E04 Podcast
3First things first, apologies about the audio quality. We know what caused it, and it won't happen again - still, we are sorry.
Now that is over and done with, Join Rob and his co-host, Graham, as they look at the highest-profile director we've had to date. You know a director is high-profile if their name becomes an adjective. Fellini-esque in this case. No isms here, as we are talking about the big man himself. Specifically, we look at the cinematic therapy session that is 8 1/2, and Satyricon. I don't know how to explain what that one is - it just is. A Hyper-camp romp through historical Rome? Yeah, but it doesn't get across how nothing makes sense according to anyone's conventional logic - Nah, it'll do.
There's also room in the back straight to talk about Apichatpong Weerasethakul's new Colombian jaunt, Memoria, the NetFlix horror series Archive 81, as well as Sammo Hung and much more. Fun.
