The Voice of the Moon (Blu-ray) Review
Why are there reviews that claim to be experts, when they seemingly know little about the subject? The review claims, "The works of Federico Fellini almost universally fall into two categories, regardless of their subject matter and time of release: surreal and abstract." The review then goes on and on about this in flowery language the reviewer must believe is very smart. What is surreal or abstract about I vitelloni, La strada, Il bidone, or Le notti di Cabiria? Sometimes it is best to do a bit of research before making yourself look a fool.

Also, please note that I did write "almost universally", since I do agree that there are a few of Fellini's films that aren't saturated enough with those elements to really consider them for either label.
