Federico Fellini remains one of the greatest filmmakers in the history of film. He was an artist who crafted a cinematic spectacle all his own, creating an unique but sometimes bleak world full of dreamers, whose desires, fears, nightmares, and hopes all take center stage.

Not only is this monumental Criterion Collection release "essential" Federico Fellini (1920-1993), it also represents the large majority of films in the Italian maestro's oeuvre, missing only I Clowns, Fellini's Casanova, Orchestra Rehearsal, City of Women, Ginger and Fred, The Voice of the Moon, and a couple of segments from anthology films.

The fact that this set is far from complete in terms of Fellini's films does not mean that it is not comprehensive. Titles span from the start of Fellini's career to quite nearly the end, covering all of his major thematic shifts and often wild creative phases. Included are all of the Fellini titles that Criterion has ever released, many of which have not been previously made available on Blu-ray due to having been forced out of print for many years. Not only is it about time, it's the perfect time- the 100th birthday of the director. (Fellini was born January 20, 1920, in Rimini, Italy).
