Federico Fellini

Federico Fellini (Rimini, Italy, 1920-Rome, Italy, 1993) moved to Rome in 1939; he got his start there as a cartoonist for “Marc’Aurelio,” and later collaborated as a screenwriter for directors such as Lattuada, Germi and Rossellini. His first feature film, which he made together with Alberto Lattuada in 1950, was Variety Lights; two years later he made The White Sheik, followed by I Vitelloni, which won a Silver Lion in Venice. In 1954, he won an Oscar with The Road and this success was repeated three years later with another Oscar for Nights of Cabiria. In 1960, he directed La Dolce Vita, which won a Golden Palm in Cannes. In 1963, he directed 8 1/2 and one decade later he won his fourth Oscar with Amarcord. The Voice of the Moon (1990) was his final film and in 1993 he received an Oscar for lifetime achievement.
