Synopsis
Federico Fellini chose to film this elaborate biopic of the famous titular lover entirely within the walls of Rome's Cinecittà Studios. The director shot the picture in English, hardly a language in which he was fluent -- and cast an enthusiastic Donald Sutherland as the title character. Nino Rota penned the score. Most prints of this film bear the title Fellini's Casanova. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
