The maestro, director Federico Fellini, was born on January 20, 1920, in Rimini, and grew up to define Italian cinema with movies that included La Strada, La Dolce Vita, 8 1/2, Roma, Amarcord, Juliet of the Spirits, and Satyricon.
He was fascinated by dreams; in the early 1960s he studied Carl Jung’s writings.
Here’s a Fellini mini-movie you probably have never seen, his delightful commercial for the Bank of Rome, made in 1991, two years before he died. It has a man, a woman, danger, dreams and a happy ending… everything you’d expect from a master.
