9月9日至10日，由意大利駐重庆总领事馆主办的第四届意大利电影文化周“费里尼记忆中的马切洛”主题活动在UME影城重庆金沙天街店举行。为纪念意大利著名演员马切洛·马斯楚安尼离世25周年，主办方特意选择马切洛与电影大师费里尼合作的两部经典作品《甜蜜的生活》和《八部半》在重庆展映。

第四届意大利电影文化周旨在向世界推广高品质的意大利电影，同时也是“意式生活”推广项目的重要组成部分，该项目由意大利外交与国际合作部发起，是一个以政府和私人机构共同合作为基础的长期战略项目。

意大利驻重庆总领事毕岚祺介绍，《甜蜜的生活》讲述20世纪50年代末至60年代初在罗马发生的故事，影片中的一些碰撞和对话充满艺术含义。“该片是费里尼的代表作之一，也是电影史上的经典作品之一，曾获得戛纳电影节金棕榈奖、奥斯卡最佳服装奖。影片的成功不仅在于它是费里尼的杰出作品，其历史背景也是造就经典的重要原因。”毕岚祺表示，文化推广活动对加强中意双边对话交流非常重要，希望通过电影文化周，将意大利人对电影的热爱带到重庆，让更多的重庆人了解意大利和意大利电影。

《甜蜜的生活》是一部时长180分钟的黑白电影。电影的主人公是由马切洛·马斯楚安尼饰演的一名小报记者马塞洛·鲁比尼，他的工作主要是挖掘名人的丑闻。尽管马塞洛·鲁比尼的生活方式奢华享乐，但他也会思考如果过一种简单的生活是否会更好。

20世纪50年代末，意大利的经济奇迹仿佛让意大利进入了“甜蜜的生活”。然而，物质富有的同时也带来精神生活的空虚，种种以病态情绪为主导的艺术流派风行一时。费里尼的《甜蜜的生活》就以一种罕见的冷峻、辛辣的笔触，以男主人公马塞洛的个人感情经历和记者生涯为线索，揭示了潜藏在这种社会状态背后的“一种复杂的精神错乱症”。

影片采用一种形散而神聚的非线性叙事方式，将12个松散的片段连缀成一体，将罗马上流社会光怪陆离的各个侧面，以及形形色色的众生相予以淋漓尽致地展现。毫不留情地揭露现代物质文明富裕之下人们的病态情绪、精神愚昧和空虚焦虑等心理世界。

《八部半》则讲述由马切洛饰演的电影导演圭多在一部影片大获成功之后，来到一处疗养地休息，同时开始构思下一部电影。然而，他的工作伙伴一直在寻找更多的工作，他无法得到片刻安宁。他绞尽脑汁却无法想激发出灵感，在构思的同时，他开始回忆自己人生中发生的大事。该片是费里尼的自传式电影，讲述了电影制作的考验和磨难。影片曾荣获奥斯卡最佳外语片和最佳服装设计（黑白片）两项大奖。

The Fourth Italian Film Culture Week “Marcello nel ricordo di Fellini”

The "Italian life" leaves much reminisence to Chongqing audience

From September 9 to 10， the theme event of the Fourth Italian Film Culture Week "Marcello nel ricordo di Fellini"， hosted by the Italian Consulate General in Chongqing， was held at the UME Jinsha Skywalk in Chongqing. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the death of the renowned Italian actor Marcello Mastroianni， the organizers specially selected his two classic works La Dolce Vita and 8? in partnership with film master Federico Fellini for screening in Chongqing.

The Fourth Italian Film Culture Week aims to promote high-quality Italian films to the world. At the same time， it is also an integral part of the "Italian life" promotion program. The program， initiated by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation， is a long-term strategic initiative based on the joint cooperation between the government and private institutions.

According to Guido Bilancini， Italian Consul General in Chongqing， La Dolce Vita tells the story happened in Rome from the late 1950s to the early 1960s. Some clashes and dialogues in the film are full of artistic implications. "One of Fellini's representative works and one of the classics in film history， the film has won the Golden Palm Award at Cannes Film Festival and Academy Award for Best Costume Design. The success of the film lies not only in that it is one of Fellini's outstanding works， but also in its historical background， which is an important reason for creating classics." Guido Bilancini said that cultural promotion activities are critical to strengthen China-Italian bilateral dialogue and exchanges. He hoped that through the film culture week， Italians' passion for films would be brought to Chongqing， so that more Chongqing people could learn about Italy and Italian films.

La Dolce Vita is a 180 minute black-and-white film. The protagonist of the film is Marcello Rubini， a tabloid journalist played by Marcello Mastroianni， whose job is mainly to dig up celebrity scandals. Although Marcello Rubini's lifestyle is luxurious and decadent， he will also reflect whether it would be better to live a simple life.

In the late 1950s， Italy's economic miracle seemed to bring the country into La Dolce Vita （"a sweet life"）. Material affluence， however， also brought the emptiness of spiritual life. Various art schools dominated by morbid emotion were prevalent for some time. Fellini's La Dolce Vita reveals "a complicated psychosis" hidden behind such a social state in a rare stern and piquant way with the clue of the hero Marcello's personal emotional experience and journalist career.

Adopting a non-linear suave yet concentrated narrative， the film connects 12 loose fragments into one， and vividly manifests all the bizarre profiles of Roman upper class society and assorted of images. It mercilessly reveals psychological world of people under the opulent context of modern material civilization， such as morbid emotion， spiritual ignorance， emptiness and anxiety.

8? tells that film director director Guido Anselmi， played by Marcello Mastroianni， came to a healing place for a rest after the great success of a film and began to conceive the next film. His working partner， however， was looking for more work to do， so he couldn't get a moment of peace. He racked his brain but couldn't think of any inspiration. At the same time， he began to recall the milestones in his life. As Fellini's autobiographical film， this film tells the test and tribulations of film production and had won two awards： Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and Academy Award for Best Costume Design （Black-and-White Film）.
