Criterion Reflections – Episode 98 – Federico Fellini’s Roma

David and guests take on the role of tourists as they accompany Fellini on an impressionistic travelogue dedicated to his adopted home.

Criterion Reflections is David Blakeslee’s ongoing project to watch all of the films included in the Criterion Collection in chronological order of their original release. This fourth season of the podcast features conversations about movies that originally premiered in 1972 and were destined to eventually receive the Criterion imprimatur. In this episode, David is joined by Brad McDermott and Josh Hornbeck to discuss Roma, directed by Federico Fellini.
