ABOUT: ON THE FELLINI SATYRICON SET OF A Behind-the-Scenes Diary by Eileen Lanouette Hughes 

For six incredible months, Eileen Hughes, an international free-lance correspondent for Life magazine, observed the maestro of film directing, Federico Fellini, create his most imaginative and controversial movie. Fellini Satyricon, now being shown throughout the world, is an eerie, macabre vision of pre-Christian Rome. In her book, the author vividly portrays the genius of Fellini as a director. Almost every gesture in the movie has been created by Fellini, and the actors become ex-tensions of the hundreds of characters the director himself plays on the set. Fellini at first glance seems like a madman who asks the impossible of his cast and staff, for everything that is to be shot the next day must be created the night before. Fellini is a funnyman, and a wild man, and egocentric, and out of seeming chaos he does achieve perfection. All this and more is portrayed in detail by the author, who observed and interviewed every-one from the director himself to the actors, cameramen, set and costume designer, and even the wardrobe mistress.
