The Fulgor cinema is the oldest cinema in the city where Fellini saw his first film in 1926, Maciste all’inferno. Here he was enchanted by the images and discovered his vocation. For Fellini, the Fulgor cinema is one of the main sources of his imagination. Today it is the only true Fellini monument and, around this cinema, the city of Rimini has built a diffused museum that includes the building where the cinema is located as well as Castel Sismondo.

Marco Leonetti talks about this on L’Ora Solare on TV2000.
