Fellini – satyricon
An atmospheric, spectacular drama.
Verfilming van de overgeleverde fragmenten van het gelijknamige boek van Gaius Petronius. In het Rome van de eerste eeuw na Chr. wordt een poging tot zelfmoord door Encolpio verijdeld door een plotselinge aardbeving. Hij gaat op zoek naar zijn schoolvriend Ascilto, en ontmoet tijdens zijn zoektocht vele opmerkelijke mensen en maakt vreemde avonturen mee.
Vandaag geen speeltijden voor Satyricon in Los Angeles.

Afterthoughts: Fellini’s orgiastic odyssey through Ancient Rome is a sheer, debauched delight.Gliding seamlessly from one erotic and extravagant episode to the next, Fellini takes us on a richly symbolic journey of sex and violence that beams with colourful sights and sounds, critiquing the consumerist hedonism of capitalist modernity, whilst offering an eccentric look at one of history's most interesting civilisations.Similarly to the films of Alejandro Jodorowsky, it is a great joy to see Fellini granted all the necessary resources to realise his audacious and ambitious surrealist masterpiece on the large scale it clearly required.The average ratings for this film are criminally low! Worthy of higher and wider praise for certain.
If an experiment was conducted consisting in submitting a modest cinema connoisseur to this beautiful and decadently disastrous orgy of anarchic cultural aspects of Rome, perhaps the first name that would pop up to his head was Pasolini. Surprisingly, it isn't. More surprisingly, this rebellious piece of art entered the business before Pasolini's Trilogy of Life. Truth is, Satyricon is the turning point for the legend that Fellini already was before autobiographical memoirs and nostalgia invaded his mind with controversial youth moments added here and there for spicing up his love letters to the city that gave him life and an identity forever.99/100
The film follows a young man on a fragmented, dreamlike journey through the decadence and strange rituals of ancient Rome.
Federico Fellini directed the film in 1969, utilizing his signature visual style to create a surrealist depiction of the past.
Satyricon contains explicit themes, grotesque imagery, and mature content, making it best suited for adult audiences interested in art-house cinema.
