- In 1996, Marcello Mastroianni talks about life as an actor. It's an anecdotal and philosophical memoir, moving from topic to topic, fully conscious of a man "of a certain age" looking back. He tells stories about Fellini and De Sica's direction, of using irony in performances, of constantly working (an actor tries to find himself in characters). He's diffident about prizes, celebrates Rome and Paris, salutes Naples and its people. He answers the question, why make bad films; recalls his father and grandfather, carpenters, his mother, deaf in her old age, and his brother, a film editor; he's modest about his looks. In repose, time's swift passage holds Mastroianni inward gaze.

- TOMFL - Test of Movement as a Foreign Language serves as an alert mechanism which, subverting the schemes of identification with the characters, forces the advance to a level of creation of new senses. However, invention is not the final goal: the irony of the film's formulation as a "test" diverts the spectator from the exercise of the creation of meaning and induces him, on the contrary, to an action of discovery. It is precisely through this path that the reflection about movement and the possibilities of its cinematic translation completes itself.
