My Cinephile Journey | Federico Fellini

Travis Bean
June 18, 2025

The first entry into My Cinephile Journey will be the films of Federico Fellini. Here, I will house all the different articles I will write as I burn through the Criterion Collection’s “Essential Fellini” boxset, which includes 14 of Fellini’s films, as well as interviews, commentaries, film essays, and documentaries. As I digest this boxset, I will write about whatever comes to mind, with the unifying factor between my writings being how the movies make me feel, how my relationship with Fellini and his artistry evolves as I dive deeper.
