Fellini talks about Rimini, his hometown, and how his memories, dreams and fantasies of that place are connected to his films.

Is beauty in the eye of the beholder? That's what they say--but to Gualtiero Marchesi, that's not necessarily so. Sometimes beautiful is beautiful, period. As we've seen in other segments, cooking as an art form is a topic that's close to this chef's heart.

To please a reporter, Fellini sits and describes a typical day spent at Chianciano Terme, where he has gone for its healing thermal waters. Chianciano happens to have inspired one of his best known films, and he still sees it as a movie set. Fellini goes on to reminisce about Sundays in Rimini, and admits that his memories are a mix of fact and fantasy.

Gualtiero Marchesi talks about the chef as an artist, and how different chefs can be recognized by their distinctive artistic styles. In defending the choice of simple, genuine food, he goes on to talk about the art of slicing, and how it used to be "performed" right in the dining room.

Federico Fellini and Ingmar Bergman, two of the most important film directors in international cinema, discuss a joint project. They come from completely different worlds, but have some important points in common. Fellini's film, Satyricon is in the spotlight at the Venice Film Festival of 1969.

Some artists, including Gualtiero Marchesi, talk about the past: horse-drawn carts for delivering produce, artists exchanging news from abroad before the widespread use of telephones, tripe for breakfast, still-life paintings reflecting the food of the times and its preparation. There's even talk of the desire to eat paintings! Buon appetito!

In this segment, cooking is seen as an art form, starting with a white plate as the artist's canvas...

When does an artist become an artist? Join Gualtiero Marchesi in his musings on art and the art of cooking in this new chapter.

Italian TV is broadcasting from the set of Fellini's Satyricon in Cinecittà as well as from the show, Canzonissima, a well-known variety TV show being hosted in this case, by Mina (one of Italy's most famous pop singers).

For the filming of a scene from Satyricon, Fellini, on the set at Cinecittà, patiently rehearses with an actor who's supposed to count from one to four.

Fellini gives us his personal views on tempo libero, (free-time). Whatever you do, don't show up if you have an appuntamento (appointment) with him!

Fellini looks back and admits that he didn't believe he had what it takes to be a film director. Here we see him in action. He definitely had what it takes.

Musician Carlo Ipata talks about the Rossi Theater in Pisa, his hometown. Amazingly, this eighteenth-century theater managed to escape modern renovations, allowing us a glimpse of what theatergoing would have been like in earlier times.

A precious moment in the middle of a shoot with Fellini and his crew.

Fellini loves working with Marcello Mastroianni. He tells us why, and in doing so, tells a great story about a fake bullet wound.
