I'm hoping to get both Amarcord and The Great Beauty in the upcoming sale. I think they would make an interesting double feature.
The two Fellini films you listed are great. By the way, if you haven't seen The Great Beauty yet, you are in for a treat. It's the best film of 2013 by a long shot and it's very similar to Fellini's style.

Going back to your two favorite Fellini films, I will admit that I'm not the biggest fan of La Strada as everybody else is. The entire film left me really cold and reserved. A lot of this has to do with me feeling as if the character of Gelsomina was treated way too cruelly. Maybe that was the point, though. I'm not sure.
