I know few movies that are this complete: a romantic story about friends that is, at the same time, a story about the development of Politics and Cinema in Italy after war. Incredibly touching.

One of Ettore Scola's finest films. The story of three friends, the intellectual, the proletarian and the bourgeois, from 1944 to 1974. Scola is interested in the History of Cinema and the events of Italian politics during this period as much as the friendship binding his three heroes together. I loved the scene with Federico Fellini and Marcello Mastroianni. Masterpiece.
