Rather than a dashing seducer, Fellini introduces a jaded, cynical, aging Casanova hungrily scouring the opulent boudoirs of eighteenth century Venice in an attempt to satisfy his insatiable sexual appetite and as a man whose sexual conquests come to represent severe self-loathing. Boasting lush widescreen cinematography, sumptuous studio sets and lavish Oscar winning costumes, this vision of the life of a philandering dilettante remains one of the great Fellini film experiences.
