About the film:
"Aside from being full of visually unforgettable, jaw-droppingly surreal vignettes and maximalist set designs (as are all of Fellini's films), I find that one of the most exceptional and radical things about this underseen treasure is in it's unique depiction of Giacomo Casanova as an arrogant, self-absorbed and emotionally hollow person whose compulsive and mechanical sexual conquests reveal his deep insecurities about social status and fear of death. Ultimately Fellini uses the figure of one of history's most famous womanizers to expose the construct of masculinity as a prison, including his own." -Epsilon Spires Programming Director, Jamie Mohr.
