...their capital in the plan. On one level this turns out to be a bad deal. For the pressures of the big night bring out the worst in a lot of its key participants. But it does messily resolve a lot of romantic muddles involving three terrific actresses (Isabella Rossellini, Minnie Driver and Allison Janney), and it brings out the genius in Primo. The meal he serves offers everyone the consolations of--no other word...

Pasolini's insatiable appetite for art, literature, music, film and theory led him to devour the work of Giotto, Verdi, Genet, Marx and Rossellini without discrimination, absorbing their genius and using it as inspiration for his own paintings, poems, novels, and, finally, films.

Fellini once played God: he was the vagabond whom a peasant (Anna Magnani) mistakes for Jesus in Roberto Rossellini's The Miracle (1948). For Fellini, however, God was a goddess and woman was the world -- everything in the world that excites and frightens, forbids and enchants. To Marcello in La Dolce Vita, woman is "mother, sister, daughter, lover, angel, home." How small and sad and funny men are in comparison! At one end of the spectrum they are like the midget bluenose in Boccaccio 70 (1962) overwhelmed by Anita Ekberg as a sexual giantess -- it's the attack...

...arrogance alienates him from his wife (Isabella Rossellini) and son. They -- like John Turturro's determinedly patient psychiatrist, a specialist in traumatic stress, and Tom Hulce's determinedly impatient tort lawyer, trying to extract a settlement from the airline -- would prefer a more humble and malleable response to a near death experience...
