Top Critic
Little appears to be filmed for the movie itself, or at least within the last decade, and the caliber tends to be less than a Bravo profile.
04/23/04
The filmmaker acknowledges the contradictions inherent in [Fellini's] surreal style.
10/03/03
Only those who are familiar with or curious about Fellini’s work will find it a rewarding experience.

If you want to learn about Fellini, don't listen to him prattle on. Go rent 8 1/2 instead.

It almost seems that documentarian Damian Pettigrew didn't have enough Fellini material to draw from.
08/29/03
There may be better straight introductions to the accomplishments of this most poetic of cinematic artists, but for the already initiated this will serve as a welcome remembrance.

It's interesting, but I'm not sure how informative this documentary really is. Fellini fans will certainly appreciate it more than the casual moviegoers.
07/25/03
Fellini came close to painting his thoughts directly onto the screen. Born Liar honors this approach by putting lyricism ahead of clarity. You get the feeling that the maestro would appreciate the results.

Top Critic Pettigrew's movie functions nicely as a posthumous couch trip, with Fellini explaining the soulful puppetry of his art without pulling the curtain up far enough to let you catch him pulling the strings.

Top Critic Born liar or windbag? Either way, Fellini clearly likes telling women to spread their legs. Wider.
