Dream
and away from the viewer include
poignant visits with his dead par-
ents and a hilarious chiaplinesque
in which he tries to escape his
school masters.
Fellini has created by taking
feeling and building around it idea,
character and situation, rather
than vice-versa, which is so often
the case in movies. He provides
no plot, no moral messages, no
black and white truths or un-
truths. "'81/2" is the story of one
moan with one man's real prob-
lems : women, work, church,
doubts, self-confidence, loneliness.
Fellini does not provide the :answer
to these problems, he only shows
that they exist and how they af-
fect. He leaves the answers to the
viewer and the viewer will try
to find them because he'll see
himself on the screen.
