Amarcord (1974)
In this carnivalesque portrait of his hometown of Rimini as he remembered
it in '30s, during the fascist period, Fellini satirizes his youth
and turns daily life into a circus of rituals, sensations and emotions.
Many bizarre but very warm and human characters and specific Mediterranean
humour made this movie the most popular of all Fellini's works.
