Ginger and Fred

Federico Fellini directed and wrote the 1986 comedy/drama film Ginger and Fred, which starred Marcello Mastroianni and Giulietta Masina. The title alludes to the famous American dance duo Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The two stars play Astaire and Rogers impersonators from Italy who reconnect after thirty years of retirement for a rude and strange televised spectacle.
