Italian maestro Federico Fellini’s first international success is a nakedly autobiographical film that bears many of the formal and thematic concerns that recur throughout his work. Set in the director’s hometown of Rimini, I Vitelloni follows the lives of five young vitelloni, or layabouts, who while away their listless days in their small seaside village. Fausto (Franco Fabrizi), the leader of the pack, marries his sweetheart, but finds himself constantly distracted by other women. Meanwhile, would-be playwright Leopoldo (Leopoldo Trieste) continues work on his dreary plays, dreaming of staging them one day. Clownish Alberto (Alberto Sordi) still lives at home with his mother and sister, Olga (Claude Farell), while boasting of preserving the family honor by watching over her. While the movie seems to pay little attention to Riccardo (Riccardo Fellini) and Moraldo (Franco Interlenghi), the latter eventually emerges as its key character, plainly serving as Fellini’s alter ego. Stuck in adolescence, the five friends stumble into various misadventures, as they seek to spice up their uneventful provincial lives. Ultimately, one of them breaks free from their self-imposed paralysis and moves on, leading to one of the most poignant farewell sequences in film history. A hit in Italy upon its release, I Vitelloni secured Fellini’s reputation as an up-and-coming talent, while also introducing its title into Italian vernacular., Fellini’s autobiographical study of five young idlers trying to escape the boredom of their provincial seaside village in Italy., Fausto, a smooth-tongued Lothario, leads an aimless life with a gang of youthful pals in a small seaside town on the Adriatic. However his days of free-wheeling bachelorhood are cut short when he gets one of his conquests pregnant and is forced into marriage. But his eye for the ladies remains undimished, and he soon returns to his old ways, chasing women with his mates.
