Five young men, the not-so-young sons of middle class parents, linger in a postadolescent limbo, dreaming of adventure and escape from their small coastal town. Perpetually unemployed, they whittle their lives away by spending the money of their families on drink, women, and nights at the pool hall.
Fellini’s first critical & commercial success, the neorealist I vitelloni is as well one of the maestro’s most crucial works: an entwining of several coming-of-age arcs triggered by the tender languor of summer’s end. An atmospheric (and not solely melancholic) account of adrift twentysomethings.
