In this dream-sequence film, renowned Italian director Federico Fellini expounds at length on the nature, complexities, attitudes, and hang-ups of women and how this all relates to men "hunting" sexual conquests. Snaporaz (Marcello Mastroianni) is traveling in a compartment on a train when he lapses into sleep and dreams the ensuing story. He follows a woman off the train and through a field and then loses her. Soon, as a representative of the male sex in general he finds himself in a hotel, among myriad women attending a feminist conference. Surreal episodes take him through a villa with his alter-ego Dr. Katzone (Ettore Manni, who died during filming) and references to his sexual exploits. Reunited with his former wife for a moment, he starts another sequence which reviews his past. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

| I enjoyed it. It could be a bit slow at times but I liked all the twists and turns in the story. If you like the slightly psychedelic, moderately sexual, "wake-up-at-the-end" movies then give this one a shot. |

| how many films has this guy devoted to his infantile sexual hang-ups? while this strategy has worked for him at times, this one is just plain tedious over-indulgence |
