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

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

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.

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!

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.

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).

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.

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.

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

This is the last segment of a series of interviews focused on one of the greatest film directors of all time. Fellini, in saying he doesn't have much to say, says it all.

Ferrari fans won't want to miss a stop at the Ferrari museum in Modena. Hear all about it from Antonio Ghini, director of the museum, and get a glimpse of the museum itself.

Il formaggio (cheese) is rarely missing from an Italian kitchen. This video takes us to the mountains north of Bergamo where the Monaci family has kept the family cheese-making tradition going, beginning in the stable where the cows are taken care of during the colder months.

Lo stracchino is a soft, mild but flavorful cheese that's spreadable, and we find it in supermarkets all over Italy. But the kind Francesca's family produces in the mountains, with traditional tools, is on a whole other level. Why is this cheese called stracchino? There is a fascinating reason. Watch the video.

The fine white mold that forms on the cheese helps give it its characteristic flavor, but it is also painstakingly scraped off each round. Before the high-altitude pastures are ready for grazing, humans take advantage of the snow and the trails.

Here and there in the small villages of the valley, there are interesting frescos hearalding back to earlier times. Two local recipes are offered: stuffed curly cabbage leaves and Taragna polenta, a kind of cornmeal with the addition of buckwheat.
