Fellini’s great masterpiece will entice visitors to Romagna.
Possibly Fellini and Guerra’s greatest masterpiece highlights colourful local community and superb destination
Possibly Fellini’s greatest masterpiece, Amarcord, won the Oscar for best foreign language film in 1973. Based on his own experiences growing up in Romagna, and those of his collaborator, writer Tonino Guerra, the film portrays life in and around Rimini in the 1930’s.
As a way of preparing for a visit to Romagna, understanding Romagnolo people, and enjoying a great story, Amarcord has no equal!
You’ll walk into the lives of Volpina the seductress, Gradisca the village beauty, the well-endowed sex-starved tobacconist, Titta the rosy-cheeked adolescent, Lallo the camp lodger, Zeus the red-headed crusty schoolmaster, the local fascist brute, the delinquent schoolkids and many more.
You’ll adore the surreal luxury in the Grand Hotel, revel in the spring bonfire festa, enjoy the picnic on the beach and the roar of the sportscars passing through on the Mille Miglia – and much, much more.
And the wonder is that you can still do it all today.
Because, here in Romagna, you’ll still find a deep love for the changing of the seasons and a love of great seasonal food and wine. You’ll still find the traditions intact and celebrated with passion. You’ll still find a joyful people daily celebrating the sensuality of life.
More importantly, you’ll still find the same colourful characters in Romagna today – the fashionistas, the vamps, the politicos, the beautiful people (and the ugly ones!), the romantics and the heroes.
And they’ll still enthusiastically welcome you into their world, full of quirky fun and warm Romagnolo hospitality, great food and wine.
