This is Woody Allen's love letter to Italian cinema. Apart from being a tribute to 8 1/2 , you will also find references to Toby Dammit, Juliet of the Spirits, Roma. The Fellini inspired camera work is stunning and there are lots of funny lines. My only objection is that the women are not as impressive as the divas in the Italian films. This is probably one of top Woody Allen films, but as another reviewer said, it doesn't make much sense unless you are familiar with Fellini's work. Fans of Suspiria and Phantom of Paradise may want to catch it for Jessica Harper. There is also a mesmerizing cameo by Sharon Stone. The black and white photography is the best of it's kind in a film shot in USA. As good as the real thing.
