This Saturday, February 9, at 7:00, Federico Fellini’s classic drama “La Strada” (“The Road”) will be shown at the Maple Corner Community Center. Gelsomina (Fellini’s wife, Giulietta Masina) is sold by her mother into the employ of Zampanò (Anthony Quinn), a brutal strongman in a traveling circus. When Zampanò encounters an old rival in highwire artist the Fool (Richard Basehart), his fury is provoked to its breaking point. With La strada, Fellini left behind the familiar signposts of Italian neorealism for a poetic fable of love and cruelty, evoking brilliant performances and winning the hearts of audiences and critics worldwide. Rick Winston will introduce the film and lead a discussion afterwards.
