Il bidone (The Swindle)
(Italy/France 1995)
Director Federico Fellini
Is the story of an old con man, Augusto, who swindles peasants,
working with two younger men. Augusto avoids personal entanglements,
spending money at clubs seeking the good life. His attitude changes
when
he runs into his own daughter, whom he rarely sees, and realizes
she is now a young woman and in need of his help to continue her
studies.
But when Augusto finds himself transformed, it is too late.
One of Fellini's least seen films, but an amazing one. Proof again
of Fellini's astonishing love and compassion for all humanity.
Starring Broderick Crawford, Richard Basehart, Giulietta Masina
and Franco Fabrizi.

the title character of one of Fellini's most
haunting films.
Oscar winner of Best Foreign Language Film, Nights of Cabiria is
the tragic story of a naive prostitute, a
streetwalker living in a poor section of Rome where she owns her
little house, has a bank account, and
dreams of a miracle.
