Title: Film School 101.
Product review: What can I say about this film? It's a chance to learn about cinema from one of the greatest directors in history. The irony is that Scorsese is every bit as fine an artist as any of these legends that he discusses. I really did not know much about Rossellini and De Sica before I saw this documentary, and if you see it I'm sure that you too will walk away highly appreciative of their oeuvre. Many of the things that Scorsese points out about these movies I would be incapable of noticing on my own. I suppose that if one is an experienced scholar of cinema then some of this discussion might be obvious but it certainly wasn't to me. I learned a great deal. Fellini's "Vitelloni, I" is definitely one that I now have to see, and the commentary for La Dolce Vita is priceless.
