La Dolce Rota
Music Blog June 22, 2007
by Raoul Hernandez
Description: The Ultimate Best of Federico Fellini & Nino Rota
"...Indeed, said Nino? I don’t know, I don’t remember. And he… kept caressing the keys, seemingly at random, here and there… smiling at me, looking as if he wanted to reassure me.”
Spinning The Ultimate Best of Federico Fellini & Nino Rota, that caress leaves you purring like Anita Ekberg’s kitten in La Dolce Vita.
Opening on the trumpet fanfare of Lo Sceicco Bianco, Rota quickly drops in Fellini’s favorite goose – circus music! A sweep here, a can-can chorus there, and the piano of the innocents at the finale: Rota’s rolling, right into the familiar stroll of the I Vitelloni theme..."

by Marjorie Baumgarten
Description: The mere presence of a new Robert Altman film in the theatres will be enough to draw in the regular connoisseurs of maverick film art. The idea of Richard Gere... 
by Marjorie Baumgarten
"...That there resides a problem beneath the perfect exterior of Dr. T's life becomes obvious to all when his wife strips naked to romp in an indoor shopping mall fountain, supposedly reverting to childhood but looking more like Anita Ekberg famously splashing in the Trevi Fountain..."
