Budget-minded Fellini film about a TV documentary crew covering a routine orchestral tune-up in an old church and getting more than they bargained for when the musicians turn mutinous, shrug off the guiding hand of the maestro, and lapse into chaos. There is plenty of room to speculate on the allegorical significance of all this, and, in spite of the movie's shortness, which is its supreme virtue, there are plenty of slow times during which to wander off in such speculation. (1978) — Duncan Shepherd
