Italy, 1987 / Triboro Entertainment 1993. VHS. 108 1minutes, color, aspect ratio 1.85:. Written and Directed by Federico Fellini. "Intervista (1987) is perhaps Fellini's most buoyant and honored late film; and when it is more widely seen, it may also become one of his most beloved. It won several international awards including, by unanimous vote, the Cannes Film Festival 40th Anniversary Prize and the Grand Prize at the Moscow Film Festival.
