"F* Is For FELLINI": And The Ship Sails On E La Nave Va (And The Ship Sails On) (1983) With Freddie Jones, Barbara Jefford, Victor Poletti, Peter Cellier, Pina Bausch In Italian with English subtitles In Fellini’s last great film in the twilight of his career, under a paper moon and a cardboard sea (on an intentionally artificial set at Cinecittà in Rome, designed by Dante Ferretti and decorated by Francesca Lo Schiavo and Massimo Tavazzi), an eccentric and exotic group of elite aristocrats and company set out on a luxury oceanliner, to scatter the ashes of the recently departed world-famous opera diva Tetua. Obliviously unaware, the illustrious entourage has no idea that it is the eve of World War I, and along the way the ship will need to tend to a rescue mission. Our photo-journalist guide along the way, who speaks to us directly and reminds us that one man’s priorities are not every man’s, is Orlando (Freddie Fields), whose camera is as important a character as any of the Royals surrounding it.
