I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and all the rest of it.
Federico FelliniPeellaert's comic strips were the literature of intelligence, imagination and romanticism.
Federico FelliniI donโt like the idea of โunderstandingโ a film. I donโt believe that rational understanding is an essential element in the reception of any work of art. Either a film has something to say to you or it hasnโt. If you are moved by it, you donโt need it explained to you. If not, no explanation can make you moved by it.
