''I'm a Born Liar: A Fellini Lexicon'' is a book combining film stills and photographs with transcripts of the last filmed interviews〔In ''Fellini: His Life and Work'' (New York: Faber and Faber, 2006), p. 388, Fellini biographer Tullio Kezich described the filmed interviews as "the maestro's last long intimate discussion" and in his preface to ''I'm a Born Liar: A Fellini Lexicon'', as Fellini's "spiritual testament."〕 with Federico Fellini conducted by Canadian filmmaker Damian Pettigrew in Rome in 1991 and 1992. The interviews are edited and introduced by Pettigrew with a preface by Italian film critic and Fellini biographer Tullio Kezich. Designed as a companion to the feature documentary, ''Fellini: I'm a Born Liar'' (which, in contrast, uses a single photo of Fellini as a baby), the book has 125 film stills of Fellini at work and many unpublished photographs recently restored by the Cineteca del Comune di Bologna (Italy) . == Summary == Introduced by novelist Italo Calvino to Federico Fellini (1920–1993) on the set of Fellini's ''And the Ship Sails On'' in 1983, Pettigrew shot in-depth interviews with Fellini, material later used in his documentary. Returning to their original q&a, he extracted a compilation of Fellini's responses. Arranged alphabetically according to subject, the transcripts focus on the maestro's late philosophical views leavened with quips and one-liners, the enigma of memory and inspiration, style and aesthetics that were conducted expressly as a filmed testament in collaboration with Pettigrew.〔Kezich, Tullio, preface to ''A Fellini Lexicon'', p. 6.〕 Sepia scrapbook photos appear alongside b&w stills from ''8½'', ''La Dolce Vita'', ''La Strada'', ''I vitelloni'', and others while color images are selected from classics such as ''Amarcord'', ''Fellini Satyricon'', ''And the Ship Sails On'', ''Intervista'', ''City of Women'', ''Roma'', and ''Juliet of the Spirits''. Production photos capture Fellini on Cinecittà sets, directing and gesticulating. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I'm a Born Liar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
