Somehow, I felt as though I understood this film the first time I saw it. It was an unforgettable experience, and though I've re-watched it many times, I've never been able to recapture that experience. Film can be a very emotional experience, and this film is a perfect example of how that can be so. Sounds wanky but I just got so utterly lost in his non-linear, poetic, symbolic form of story telling. There was more being transmuted to me in most scenes than I often get out of an entire film. Still mesmerising and insane and brilliant. I WANT MY MACARONI!
the movements of this dancer are totally convincing, the clicking sound effects are perfect as well. The song is lovely too, Air did a nice cover of it.
When I first saw this film in about 1973 I thought that the technicians were very skilled to make an automaton dancing doll. In 2001 I learned the truth! The doll is a living person! -Adele Angela Lojodice. Fellini died in 1993, I know not if the tiny ballerina (Adele Lojodice) still lives. Fellini's wonderful films live on-"Se non e vero,e ben trovato".
I don't know what to say. This scene is magical. As for the movie - I have mixed feelings. Some scenes were ethereally beautiful and fairy tale - like and others were just mad. Certainly one the most unusual films I've ever seen.
Oh this scene horribly creeps me out, but great movie, and nino rota did a beautiful job with the score. thank you for this, despite the doll lady i really love this.
This scene reminds me a lot of the ballet Coppelia that deals with a some sort of toymaker who creates a realistic doll, but the doll is substituted by a real girl and the toymaker thinks that he really have her life.
Fellini, in his crazed, personal view of things , hits the TRUTH better than any other film Master. Do you remember 'Chitty Chitty bang Bang's" musical doll sequence? Pretty good, huh? Then you see Fellini's rendition... and you are mesmerized.
It’s been like 35 years since I saw this movie. I tried to read Casanova memoirs when I was a teenager. It was just too weird for me even then. I don’t recall of this is in his autobiography. I do realize that the man had absolutely no respect for any other human beings and particularly for the women that he abused so often. The scene is this man’s entire life playing with women as if they toys. The dancer deserves a lot of credit because I did not realize there was a person inside this thing when I was a child. I have to say that Sutherland looks truly strange. Somewhere between Tom Cruise has vampire Lestat, Dee Snyder from Twisted Sister and buffalo Bill from the silence of the lambs. Oh in case you’ve never seen the movie the fox this mechanical dancer in the next scene!
I must confess: I'm not a fellini fan, and I had a lot of problems with this film, but I can't stop watching this scene and I don't know why. It's just amazingly beautiful and surreal to watch. I mean it's a movie about cassanova he's got a robot in it!! But best scene in the movie
It's not too absurd in that one sense. There were robots like this in Casanova's time; they're called automatons or "automates". They ran by clockwork and did things like dancing, bowing, or even drawing a certain picture.
Дональд Сазерленд сыграл свою лучшую роль в этом фильме, божественно, богоподобно, благородно, лучшая эротика 1976-го года - люди научились ценить великое, вечное; и поэтому это не моё..
That's one of my favorite scenes! So beautiful! I wish I could have the movie, but unfortunately it hasn't been released in the US. Do you have any more videos of this movie?
This film has grown on me. I've rewatched it two times now and I can honestly say that I've never seen a more bizarre, odd and mesmerizing film.

szilvavirag Das stimmt - der Film ist unvergessen!
Hauntingly beautiful, surreal and really very, very sad, all at once. We´re all forever Fellini´s orphans...
the movements of this dancer are totally convincing, the clicking sound effects are perfect as well. The song is lovely too, Air did a nice cover of it.
She's an amazing actress! What can we expect from an amazing Fellini!
Her name is Leda Lojodice.
This scene haunts me. It's frightening and I can't stop thinking about it.

Yes, she is still lives:) She is 81 years now.
I agree. Pure cinema and pure love.
This Glass Harp music is so haunting.
Molte grazie.
The most intensely perfect image of loneliness ever put on film. Savage.

Rest in peace Donald Sutherland. May you waltz with her forever.
Nino Rota was a genius.
This movie enchants me every time i see it .
É uma das mais belas (e melancólicas) cenas da filmografia felliniana. Deslumbrante. Maravilhoso.
Oh this scene horribly creeps me out, but great movie, and nino rota did a beautiful job with the score. thank you for this, despite the doll lady i really love this.
I luv this scene, so beautiful and surreal.
Fellini increíble! Directores como él hacen falta para recordar cómo es soñar...

2020 and i still love this scene
That's one of my favorite scenes! So beautiful!
Con esta música se entra en otra dimensión.
Séquence extraordinaire ; une vision, une fulgurance d'un génie du cinéma
God that's beautiful.
Grandios. Magnificent.
Film capolavoro del grande Fellini!
genius!

TienneSynthetica, thank you for your great taste.
Love this film!!! fellini is the master!!!
Rosalba, the Mechanical doll, was interpreted by Leda Lojodice.

movie was not my cup o tea but for some reason, this part always seemed so beautiful to me.and it still does.
they tried to make sutherland actually look like casanova (using portraits of him as models)and accurate to how people looked/dressed back then
i always thought she was a real human being
Love it!

BRAVISIMO
Wonderful.I hate Fellini-how talented can one man be?;-)Incredible.
So sad. The end of a great lover.

Casanova da incubo. Eccezionale sequenza dell'onirico Fellini
magnifico, chissà se si è ispirato a coppelia
@NonokoYi - Nino Rota "O' Venezia Venaga Venusia"
It's track number 3 on their album Late Night Tales.
WOW that is all tht comes to mind
It's perfect because its strange!
Qué escenas tan exquisitas.
@MorroccoSurrogate
Yep. Just think about Hoffman's "Der Sandmann"!
My mother said she was terrified by this scene
@XYZTanya "I never thought that D.Sutherland can act like this."
Are you joking ?
That's one of my favorite scenes! So beautiful! I wish I could have the movie, but unfortunately it hasn't been released in the US. Do you have any more videos of this movie?

Bons tempos...
@MorroccoSurrogate
yep. Just think about Hoffman's "The Sandman".
Ледниковый период 2021 привет 👋🏾
She sure is.
Why wont you ever upload the whole thing?
@spinozacelt how can any with a soul hate fellini!? blasphemy!
venezia
The only thing I don't like about this movie (and almost all Italian movies) is that the dialogues are dubbed
if you want to see the whole movie, check "guys and dolls" in google!!!! lovely!!!
no, no, not distubing at all
@buzzardbeatniks hi! what's the name of the Air's song? tks
Wait, is the the original "robot dance"?!?
The *original* might be from The Tales of Hoffmann.
if add Final Fantasy IV Music - Dancing Doll Calcobrena be more Creepy
Just to think that sex dolls are know a reality!! This scene makes them look like an accessory to selfishness.
the new version of casanova is garbage
