Ginger and Fred
The movie that looks at television through the eyes of Fellini.
A bittersweet Fellini meditation on aging performers reuniting to recreate their past glory, blending nostalgia, performance, and the melancholy of time's passage.
Amelia and Pippo are reunited after several decades to perform their old music-hall act, imitating Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, on a TV variety show.
