    Science and Magic of Film: Fellini Satyricon
    Tuesday, February 28th
    7:00 pm, 18 and up
    $8 / $5 Members
    This Oscar Nominated, Italian fantasy drama film written and directed by Federico Fellini, is loosely based on Petronius’s work, Satyricon, a series of bawdy and satirical episodes written during the reign of the emperor Nero and set in imperial Rome. Fellini has described this film as ‘science fiction of the past,’ as though the Romans of that decadent age were being observed by the astounded inhabitants of a flying saucer. Curiously enough, in this effort of objectivity, the director has created a film that is so subjective as to warrant psychoanalysis.

    "A haunting, deeply touching, spot-on evocation of a moment
    in the distant theatrical past, yet with a very cool and effortless
    post-modernist twist.  It is also profoundly funny." -- Charles Busch
