  <title>SXE2: 8½  </title>
  <description>Today Renan and Bill lose their neorealist chains and grapple with the 1963&amp;amp;nbsp;Federico Fellini film 8½, hailed by armchair film scholars as one of the greatest films of all time. More than 50 years on, how does it hold up? Undoubtedly and deservedly a classic,&amp;amp;nbsp;8½ today looks different than it did in the 1960s, or even the 1990s. In this episode: 8½'s&amp;amp;nbsp;attitudes toward women; Pauline Kael's critical review; Guido's heirs including Don Draper; Fellini's virtuosic filmmaking; whither the imperial film director; and other films about filmmaking. Also,&amp;amp;nbsp;Bill offers some hot Sundance tips, and we highlight a listener's electronic music project providing an alternate score to Eraserhead.
