This noble effort by Fellini reveals that one of his unspoken influences in film was no doubt Rene Cardonas. Orchestra Rehearsal reveals chaotic visions of a society crumbling within the confines of destruction and apathy. It appears obvious that Fellini borrowed the protaga-symbolism that Rene Cardonas used in his film "Santa Claus," the only difference being Cardonas delivered a clear and enlightening vision. Fellini came close, but there is only one Rene Cardonas.
