(1953) I, Vitelloni
(In Italian with English subtitles)
DRAMA
Co-written and directed by Federico Fellini, quite tame and outdated slice of life film which is supposed to be an autobiography of director's Fellini's life centering on five school chums just out of school, and are uninspired, spend a lot of time drifting, and just coming to grips of becoming adults themselves! Out of it's five main characters, there was only one character I identified with the most amongst the rest who're unethical buffoons, especially Fausto (Franco Fabrizi) who usually refuses to accept any responsibilities for his actions and is a womanizer!
This was a major hit in Italy as well as the rest of the world. Some parts of the film's themes is somewhat the bases of many films, including George Lucas's "American Graffiti", the very effective "Five Easy Pieces" directed by Bob Rafelson and "Diner" to name a few.
