H.I. and me actually shed a tear when we heard of the death of good old Frederico. Felt the same about Nino Rota too. The world will never be the same for both of them.
Interestingly, Fellini called for a priest (or at least his wife did) just before he died, to receive the sacraments.
See the entire film, 'Roma', if you get the chance - it's wonderful, like all of Fellini's films. There are some great pieces where underground railway workers tunnel into some unseen Roman remains - this too has happened recently!
Left me speechless!
