8 1/2

This film was definitely very interesting. I was also a very strange film, much of it being in the main character, Guido's mind. I thought the scene in the house was particularly interesting, as it was showing what would happen if all the women in his life were together under one roof, it was also very entertaining when he pulled out a whip and went all Indiana Jones on their asses. Honestly much of this movie I didn't really understand. I get that it was showing Guido's relationship with all the women in his life, while he was trying to think of ideas for his screenplay, but to me the film was very unorganized and hectic. Maybe that's what the director was going for. I also didn't really understand the final scene, when everybody was dancing around Guido, wearing weird costumes. Not really sure what they were going for there, but it was strange. I am interested in seeing the American version of this movie, Nine, to see the similarities and differences, and maybe to get a better understanding of the story.
