But it doesn't mean you wouldn't, either. Never know till you try.

So you have to gain something positive from watching movies now?

I'd probably go with Frederico Fellini.

Toss up between De Sica and Antonioni.

[SpiderBaby]

I like Antonioni and Rossellini, with Ferreri (even though he just has 1 film in the collection, he is in the collection, so he counts) rounding out my top 3 favs.

Admittedly, I haven't seen many, but I enjoy Fellini's films. I do want to see some of Rossellini's work though.

I'd have to say Pasolini, Rossellini, and Vittorio De Sica.

Nice choices.

I would have to say De Sica. While I love Antonioni and Fellini as well, Umberto D. is one of my all time favorite films, and that alone puts him at the top of my list.

That's cool. I gave you some rep to help start you out.

[Belloche]

Fellini. Nights of Cabiria is simple, charming, and beautiful.

[g.schweet]

There's no love for the comedic genius Pietro Germi in here.

And a head's up for people who want to see more Rossellini. Paisan is the import of the week on TCM Sunday night.

[Kevtronn]

I would also say Fellini is my favorite. I did enjoy Marco Ferreri too.
