FELLINI-ESQUE

A few years ago I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time developing a screenplay with Danny DeVito (“He’s Huge in This Town,” by Robert W. Welkos, Nov. 16). I was often privy to his musings about movies he’d like to make, and continually astonished at his highly sophisticated visual style and intuitive sense of story.

If this man ever fully unleashes and realizes his sometimes dark visions, I predict he will be widely recognized as authentic and original an artist as the likes of Lang, Kubrick and Fellini. No kidding.
