This late colour entry from Federico Fellini sees Marcello Mastroianni play a philandering womaniser who follows hs latest conquest off a train and into a dreamworld populated solely by women. What at first seems like the ultimate indulgent fantasy quickly turns against him and he is eventually brought to trial to answer for his perceived crimes. Beautiful to look at but rambling and occasionally incoherent I certainly wouldn’t rcommend the film to anyone unfamiliar with Fellini’s style, but there are definitely pleasures to be enjoyed along the way.
