  • Bravo, maestro Rota! What a rare chance of two geniuses working together and never overshadowing , but complementing each other .Greatest soundtrack for the greatest film of all times! Thanks a lot for posting it.

  • grazie

  • y yo que pensaba que era la musica original del programa de susi gimenez :P

  • This track defines the term Felliniesque!

  • Fabulous score from my favorite movie.

  • Susana Giménez

    

  • bellissima

  • Inconmensurabile.......

  • Ora sto meglio

  • Comment removed

  • This is my favorite version . . .

  • gracias don federico fellini, por hacer una obra de arte, tambien gracias don ninoi rota, por crear musica de arte, su musica es obra de arte.

  • Ah le cinéma italien quel bonheur!!!!!! Mastroianni, Fellini!!

  • this music is sheer joy...no matter how old you are. I'm 300 years old and still going strong thanks to Rota!

  • Rota è inarrivabile

  • Magnificent score for a classic movie, one of Fellini's masterpieces and one that made a mark in me from the first time I was lucky enough to see it many years ago. Saw it again last year and I even liked it more and I understood the genius that Federico Fellini was. Too bad Hollywood produces such trash nowadays!

  • La musique que j'aime, et que j'aimerais à mon enterrement! merci Fellini et Rota <3

  • Italia es lo más grande

  • Io ho dimenticado da dire che in la verita ho 400 anni..

    Ma come dimenticado si non hai detto niente?

    Non lo so...Solo vivo....

  • Susana Gimenez jajajajajjajaa 

  • Anyone know what the Harp song is playing in the backround during the scene where the children are bathing in wine? a reply would be appriciated

  • ... c'è il proprio intimo senso della vita, dei colori dei rapporti interpersonali, dell'umana convivenza. Nino Rota assiste benevolo agli scenari di uno scorrimento della umana vita e racconta come soltanto un Artista autentico sa fare. Gianfranco Gambardella. Ercolano, 26 agosto 2011

  • Questa musica è un capolavoro assoluto. Lasciamo stare l'aspetto relativo alla capacità virtuosa dell'orchestrare, qui c'è qualcosa che va oltre la stessa musica, oltre il costrutto pur raffinatissimo della struttura compositiva e di una geniale e italianissima tessitura dell'alta sfera melodica: ...

  • There are good directors around, and hopefully there are always going to be. But FEDERICO FELLINI is and will always be the one and only, IL MAESTRO - I do not think it is exagerated to compare him with the Renaissance Masters, like Da Vinci, Raffael.

  • Anyone knows the name of the song that Saraginha used to sing?

  • I DIDN'T WRITE THE COMMENT ABOUT SOSSER AS AN ART. GOD FORGIVE!

  • @enmarinoseed WHAT IS "sosser"

  • @chocospartans27

    Sorry. I meant SOCCER.

  • I'm 200 years old...

  • @PhoenixTomislav

    I've been here since this little blue ball was just an asteroid lump... Can everybody start killing eachother? I've been bored since World War 2...

  • @PhoenixTomislav I am -200 years old^^

  • un attore spettacolare!

  • Fellini understood the human condition. And right now mine is getting a badly needed lift from the "8 1/2" theme. Packing for a long distance move is the pits

  • I don't think this song fits the movie

  • @chocospartans27 This art . Not soccer

  • @enmarinoseed Soccer is art... My favorite scores of all time include nino Rota's AMARCORD, ROMEO AND JULIET and THE GODFATHER. My name is Bernadel. I won't give my first name. My life goal is to watch every movie on Roger Ebert list of GREAT MOVIES. When it's about film making. I know what's art and what's not. ROTA didn't reflect the feelings I felt watching this masterpiece. This chocospartans27 is not me. JUST SOME GUY NAMED FRITZ THAT I HACKED. I don't have a You tube account.

  • I can't express how much I love this theme, the film is wonderful too.

  • Vorrei maestro Fellini fosse ancora vivo in modo che potesse insegnarci a fare questa capolavori. Anche se io non sono sicuro che si può insegnare a tanta grandezza.

    Sia lui e Rotta meritano un posto nella hall of fame di fare film e per vedere 8 1 / 2 almeno una volta nella tua vita.

  • гениальная музыка и не совсем испортили видеорядом

  • marcelo!

  • What would be this film without Nino's soundtrtack?

  • quanto ci mancate nino e federico....

  • and now we present the new fellinniesque aspect of the introspect composition of the latest to emerge: the Felliniesque Rotaesque adaptation... "The Eighteen Dislikes".

  • sprezzatura! Tutto di Rota! Sprezzatura! Bellissimo!

  • Il mio film preferito! Fellini di grandi dimensioni

  • If you have never seen this film, SEE IT! What a masterpiece. I am one who spent many years thinking of European films as pretentious intellectual egg head pontification....and then I saw Fellini's "8 1/2", and the so beautiful "Mon Oncle" by Tati....later the French film "A Heart In Winter". Since then I have been totally hooked. See them, they are real films, not like this special effects ridden crap we see today.

  • che classe

  • Like,like,like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hello, I think this was also used in Juliette of the Spirits.

  • where did you get this version?what album is it on?

  • Музыка прекрасна!

  • Amazing

  • Grazie Federico per averci fatto vivere i momenti piu belli del cinema..... Resti in pace......

  • Surrealistic.

    It grows with me from the day it was first released.

    I am 77 now.

    Syed Rizvi, San Jose, California

  • Nino Rota is/was a genius. No more, no less.

  • ma chi sono sti 19 cretini??

  • MERVEILLEUSE MUSIQUE MERCI A BIENTOT

  • Le 19 persone che hanno votato negativamente hanno grossi problemi esistenziali - Ci vorrebbe una cura a base di ceffoni e calci in culo, per un mese, prima dei pasti.

  • This was played at my grandpa's funeral some two years ago..

    Hah, i still laugh when i think about it, he was such a brilliant man.

  • @Digilsd ai raggione

  • i LOVE this music

  • life goes on, every day there will be a new devellopment, and the young people do realize hou revolutionary this film was as mutch as you realize how revolutionary a bike was or the steam engine in his time, there are so many things that are revolutionary, if you would count them all your life will be over before you know it,

    but great respect for the starters for pornfilms ;)

  • I don't see that anything Fellini did is common in any other films...

  • Art is nowhere

    It dissapeared once with the past..........

  • Thanks for this. Excellant job with the stills from the movie.

  • filinis best film ever

    nice soundtrack and a great marcello mastroianni

  • Magnifique! Tougour !!

  • Great cast... great director... great music... great film. I absolutly love Fellini !

  • <3 imagine felline without nino rota

  • @00julieta00

    I can't

  • My God. I saw this film when I was a young man.

    Italian cinema was absolutely the best then.

    It seems to have died with Fellini, DeSica, Visconti and other GREAT director of the 40's and 50's.

    What went wrong in Italy that they did not prepare anyone to inherit their fantastic skills and creativity?

  • I depres'd cos' this was not in 17/8

  • Bravi, Maestri!!!

    E grazie, Marcello e Claudia.

    Belleza, gioia, lacrime...

  • It's so sad to see we used to have the best cinema in the world (Fellini, Rossellini, De Sica, Visconti, Leone) and now we have pretty much nothing. 8 1/2 is indeed one of the best, if not the best, movie ever and an incredibly important one when it comes to screenplay, editing and directing. Furthermore, Mastroianni in this one is just plain brilliant.

  • @1UpStaff : I totally agree with you! What happend to Italian cinema? You forgot Ettore Scola! ;-)

  • i finished today of see it the movie just one word AWESOME or like italians say CAPOLAVORO io non parlo italiano questo film e meravigliosa il punto piu alto della cinematografia du mundi grazie fellini , mastroianni e rota

  • A me tutte 'ste fiction che girano oggi in tv mi hanno pesantemente rotto i c******

    Ahh Fellini, Pasolini, DeSica, Rossellini, Antonioni...i bei registi di un tempo, quando in Italia avevamo davvero il meglio del meglio... i bei vecchi tempi.

    Se solo ascolto questa melodia di Nino Rota mi viene da piangere (e ho solo 24 anni)

  • Thanks a lot for posting this tribute to the immortal Nino Rota and Federico Fellini.It was a rarest chance that two geniuses got together, produced brilliant work and never overshadowed each other.

    In fact, all modern cinema grew out of Fellini,Visconti and Bergman.

    Unfortunately, Nino Rota has never been given full credit.But his music is also beyond time!

  • This film is art. And what about new film, musical "NINE" with Penelope Cruz and Fergie? Well, it's a copy. Don't you agree? I adore art, not a copy.

  • Comment removed

  • i listen to this everyday pretty much now. when im bikeriding , walking doing something, which involves nothing else but daydreaming and thinking and loving the world, i can hear this song playing in the back of my head, and it's become my theme song.

  • @FerenLiszt...I am italian and I'M agree with you, but there are many italian wonderful fiction...and also some movies..such as IO NON HO PAURA-I'M NOT SCARED...or CRIMINAL ROMANCE!!!!:)

  • @IsabelleLOVEdiCAPRIO Right! Io Non Ho Pauro was a great movie. What a terrific ending.

    Aled

  • @IsabelleLOVEdiCAPRIO Si, ho apprezzato molto "Io non ho paura" di G.Salvatores . Tutto qui? E devo dire che io adoro la produzione di Salvatores (anche se non ho ben capito film come "Come Dio comanda"), ma è l'ultimo strascico del grande neorealismo italiano (chi c'è oltre a lui? Marco Risi?)

  • I'm 73 years old. My parents took me to see this film when I was 13 - over 60 years ago. I still swear to this day that 'The Glass Mountain' was, and still is, the best British film ever made. The Legend of the mountain reflects the composer's life, and Nino Rota's music rivals that of Tchaikovsky in its strident powerfulness.

  • @278NHlo bueno siempre sera lo bueno

  • @278NH

  • @278NH Whar are you talking about?

  • fellini-rota-mastroianni exist something most wonderful in this industry film!

  • Favolosamente!

  • Its great!! bravo maestro!

  • Asa nisi masa !!!!!

  • Bellissima la colonna sonora di 8½

  • great :}

  • Tout simplement magnifique !!

  • Well to compare a very good modern director today to one of the top 5 directors of all time is ridiculous. Incredible directors are still around, Wong Kar Wai's In the Mood For Love for example, is one of the best romance dramas i've ever seen. We just haven't had a groundbreaking movie, which comes around everty decade or so. The last one we had to influence every director of the genre was Pulp Fiction...which isn't exactly Fellini level but did change screenplays for a long time.

  • GAHH parts of this remind so much of the second movement of prokofiev's fifth symph!! (as in 0:45-0:50)

  • They came into our life and made magic....now they're gone...like a beautiful dream.

  • great video!!! merci, bien mélée! xoxoxoox

  • i just saw a mockumentary by michael winterbottom called "cock and bull story" and he ripped this music off! what a stupid, dumb bugger! i never liked him anyway.. he sucks

    Anyway, surely nino rota was one of the most brilliant music composer ever walked on earth! Just simply genius..

    And this movie...SPEECHLESS!

  • great mastroianni

  • yeah when people say todays directors are as good as back then, just isnt so

  • my favourite foreign film.

  • fantastic soundtrack : )

  • Brilliant! It takes me back...to, say, 1970, and I got to go to Italy, Fiuggi, I love Fiuggi, and the water gardens...I want to go back for a visit!!...and Rome...and Casino...and the little teatro where we watched Ken Russell's I Diavoli

  • ¡¡¡A ROTA DE NINO!!!

  • Quando sei dinnanzi a dei capolavori simili, è quasi impossibile aggiungere altro... c'è chi li apprezza chi non li capisce. Una cosa indubbiamente rimane nel tempo: l'arte di Fellini e Rota, due geni che saranno ricordati nel tempo a venire.

    Grazie

  • This man is a true genius! His films are so Avant Garde. I saw an autobiography on him and my favorite La Dolce Vita. That film is amazing. He should be celebrated at all Italian film festivals for years to come!!

  • @99voli AHAHAHAh!!! Yeees, you're right!! Berlusconi and his government have cut away the reason from italian people. By media, he has lobotomized italians. And destructed the Art.

    Marcello Mastroianni is one of the last great italian actor!

  • kataplhktiko!!impressive!!!mag­nifico!!!this sound ...hmmmm perfect!

  • Now the italian cinema is dead. Where are Fellini-Rota? Where is Art?

  • @FerencLiszt

    OK look paolo sorrentino film

  • @FerencLiszt I believe they don't..but surely now isn't their "golden age" and neither theis proudest moment

  • @FerencLiszt the italian cinema is dead? Now the cinema is dead.

    Great work this video, thank you Manfred

  • @FerencLiszt no one lives forever.

  • @FerencLiszt Where is Kubrick for american/british cinema?

    You can't find genious everywhere, everytime...

    Italian cinema is sleeping

    @Joviron The cinema isn't dead... We have great movies in this years

  • @RDeanGrace Yes, italian cinema is working for business...And generally american cinema too!!

  • @FerencLiszt cinema had ever been business.

    Nobody understand that art is an exception.

    Everytime, everywhere, today, yesterday, tomorrow, in Italy, in France, in UK, in USA.

    Flowers born in manure.

    Coen Brothers, Clint Eastwood, Fernando Meirelles, Paul Thomas Anderson, Tarantino, Scorsese, Ridley Scott... they are artists. They are working today.

    In Italy we have Benigni, Tornatore, Salvadores. They aren't Fellini...but nobody is Fellini...

  • @RDeanGrace Yes, i agree, nobody is Fellini, but why don't they try?? Why they don't learn from him?

  • @FerencLiszt Art isn't easy to do.

    Why they don't learn from him? Because many people don't understand anything about Fellini, his messages, his simbolism.

    A lot of people don't know he spontaneously comunicate his visions.

    I think that is difficult to learn from something you don't understand!

  • @RDeanGrace Surely anyone can throw something onto a canvas and call it art?

  • @FerencLiszt Well... The Roman Empire is no more too - yet nobody tries to imagine the World history without it.

  • @FerencLiszt we are living in banana's repubblic! i remember u my dear!

  • @olemracc Ahahahah!!! Yeees! You're right!!!

  • @olemracc ?

  • @FerencLiszt

    I know what you mean. I lived in Italy 2003-2007 and kept asking myself, is this really the land of Rossellini, De Sica, Pasolini, Fellini, Bertolucci, Visconti, and Antonini?

  • @FerencLiszt

    In Berlusconis's Italia art is no longer needed. Only half naked breasts on the screen.

  • @silverbud Yes! I know... :(

  • @silverbud don't take it so big, Silver Bud. back then they were only trying2keep abreast of the times...

  • @silverbud

    Too true.. :(

  • @silverbud This is the truth and something that really hurts the real italian, the lover of art and innovation. I want to tire down this garbage that he made in our country.

  • @reading70

    Hey, times are changing! Berlusko prepares to go! A bit late, though. I remember he started in early 90's... 20 years lost with that scoundrel...

    But now I am curious what will happen next in this my once favourite, beautiful country...

    Good luck!

  • @silverbud Thank you, I'm happy to see that many people want to sack him for the last time, the new generations don't want him anymore. We'll work to make Italy once again your favourite country.

  • @silverbud Berlusconi is not all italians!

  • @silverbud Berlusconi and his partners are the worst living people in Italy!

  • Comment removed

  • @07berlingo Actually Minister Tremonti said that.

  • @FerencLiszt Give me until I'm around 28 :)

  • @FerencLiszt

    Waiting for a revival!

  • @FerencLiszt Just like hungarian...

  • @Damjan547 about my nick name? Or about the end of the art in your country?

  • @FerencLiszt About my country

  • I love this movie, and I listen to this track on my iPod when I'm working out on the treadmill.

  • @Catmatt4KSU thats a funny thing to listen to when yo're running lol

  • @Catmatt4KSU baahahahahah :D

  • Susana le sacó el tema a Nino Rota.....O Rota a " SU".....CUIC

  • @calasazules No tengo nada en contra de Su; es mas, me cae muy bien.

    Pero me molesta soberanamente que en Argentina se identifique este tema como el de SG, y no como el de 8 1/2.

    Pero bueno, por lo menos se lo conoce no?

  • Fellini was a true genius and his movies are works of art that haunt our imagination forever. Nino Rotta's music was perefection..he was another genius and those who do not understand or appreciate these magnificent films must be morons who love violent inane movies like so many that come out of Hollywood nowadays!

  • @MarciareOMarcire si vabbe va a dormi che è tardi

  • Have you seen them all? La Strada is a precious jewel! Fellini was a genius! Like a real artist, he was in search of something! Searching involves risks in the process! La Dolce Vita, Amarcord. La Nave Va. Check them out.

  • After "Nine" the film... something really Italian to hear and enjoy!

  • I have a query - In the scene where Luisa walks out on the hero at the screen test being watched , just after she leaves and before the hero leaves in a car, two women whose test results are screened are HUMMING a song, a rhumba (?) , it is a famous number , can someone help.I would like to know its title....

  • Young people today dont realize how revolutionary this film was at the time, joining reality, dream, imagination, current events, sexual fantasies &tc. Today this is common in films, but someone started it, and it was Fellini. All of this with great actors, beautiful b/w images & the splendid music of Nino Rota. Genius!

  • That's absolutely true regarding this absolutely brilliant movie. As regarding young people of today, well, I consider myself to be young enough and still I think that 8½ is truly a masterpiece.

  • Glad to hear that, & today you can rent DVDs and enjoy the great masters, Fellini, Kurosawa, Fassbinder, Truffaut, Ettore Scola, Taviani..

    But Fellini hated TV because of the small screen, he wanted his actresses to be seen in giant size in a darkened movie theater, this makes a big psychological difference for the viewer. Cheers from Brazil!

  • I"m from Brasil, and I agree. Cinema must have the dark room and all the things that are important to give us the magic sensation in the theater. By the way, 81/2 is a masterpiece. Fellini is a genius, and, of course Nino Rota also.

  • @musicfanBRA la vision de la vida por parte de federico es fabulosa es u lujo que la podamos disfrutar.no crees?

  • @altalaguerri666 - Si, y es fantastica la libertad que el daba a si mismo, expressando las imagenes de su inconsciente, como vemos en este video-... Y todo con senso de humor, y una nostalgia de la infancia que el expressó esplendidamente en las ultimas escenas de 8 1/2, que nos hacen llorar y nos sentirmos más humanos - el Arte! Saludos de Brasil - !

  • @musicfanBRA I'm young and I realize

  • @musicfanBRA

    Surely they realize but only if they/ we are interested in film.
