Fellini Triple Feature - Ginger And Fred / The Orchestra Rehearsal / And The Ship Sails On (DVD, Boxed set)

Ginger And Fred
Amelia and Pippo are reunited after several decades to perform their old music-hall act (imitating Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers) on a TV variety show. It's both a touchingly nostalgic journey into the past and a viciously satirical attack on television in general and Italian TV in particular portraying it as a mindless freakshow aimed at morons.

The Orchestral rehearsal
A documentary-style film that focuses on the members of an oorchestra who are trying to prepare for an upcoming concert while trying to deal with their beligerent conductor.

And The Ship Sails On
In Fellini's quirky, imaginative fable, a motley crew of European aristocrats (and a lovesick rhinoceros!) board a luxurious ocean liner on the eve of World War I to scatter the ashes of a beloved diva. Fabricated entirely in Rome's famed Cinecittà studios, And the Ship Sails On reaches spectacular new visual heights with its stylized re-creation of a decadent bygone era.

In Italian with English subtitles.
