I vitelloni como primera etapa en la expresión del sentimiento de nostalgia en la música que Nino Rota compuso para el cine de Federico Fellini

Abstract

This article analyses in depth the music of one of Federico Fellini's first films: I Vitelloni (1953). It is the first part of a study that wants to go through films with clear autobiographical content among those directed by Federico Fellini. This part of his filmography is not at all marginal, since it includes about half of the films directed by "Il Maestro", among them some of his masterpieces, such as La dolce vita or Otto e mezzo. The methodology combines, mainly, audiovisual analysis and textual analysis.
