| Fellini's Casanova | comment |
Fellini's Casanova (Il Casanova di Federico Fellini) is a 1976 Italian surrealist erotic drama film directed by Federico Fellini. It is (very loosely) adapted from the autobiography of famous 18th century Venetian adventurer and writer Giacomo Casanova, played by Donald Sutherland. It also starred Tina Aumont, Cicely Browne, Carmen Scarpitta and Clara Algranti. As with most Fellini films, Nino Rota composed the soundtrack.It depicts Casanova's life as a journey into sexual abandonment, but presents his adventures in a detached, methodical and somewhat dream-like fashion, as the respect for which he yearns is constantly undermined by the need to satisfy his more... "basic" urges.Costume designer Danilo Donati won the Academy Award for Best Costume Design for his work on the film. | |

Grotesque Gallery | |
| Fellini's Casanova / int_19c85474 | comment |
Grotesque Gallery: In true Fellini fashion, many of the other male guests of the dinners Casanova attends are generally ugly. The one that stands out is the Marquis Du Bois, played by Daniel Emilfork, who really Looks Like Orlok, specially when he shows off his teeth during his dance number. | |

Stylistic Suck: When Casanova is at sea on a rowing boat, it's painfully obvious that the water is made of dark plastic bags that are animated with fans. The film's opening in a recreated Venice clearly indicates they had at least one water pool available. | |

World's Strongest Man | |
| Fellini's Casanova / int_5d9bdbb1 | comment |
World's Strongest Man: Gender Flip. When in England, Casanova bumps into Angelina, a very tall and very strong woman who's nicknamed "the strongest woman in the world". The latter claim is not unfounded, as she easily beats everyone at arm wrestling and curb-stomps everyone at her Gladiator Games freakshow. | |

In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It | |
| Fellini's Casanova / int_73d4b01a | comment |
In Case You Forgot Who Wrote It: Fellini's name was added to the title to differentiate it enough from the 1969 Casanova film of Luigi Comencini (full title Giacomo Casanova: Childhood and Adolescence). It also emphasizes that it's Fellini's own vision of the man's life and not your average biopic. | |

Witch Hunt: About twenty minutes into the film, Casanova is arrested and condemned by the Inquisition for "black magic", for generating "heretic crisis" and for owning "damned books". Most of it due to his promiscuous behavior. | |
