  • Book Details

Offers an account of the Italian film, "8 1/2" which was criticised by audiences on its release in 1961 for its seeming conceit and self-indulgence.



The enduring timeliness of 8 1/2 lies, Miller suggests, in its aggressive shirking of the shame that falls on the man -- and the artist -- who fails his appointed social responsibilities.
