The main title theme to Federico Fellini’s Amarcord—a lilting, nostalgic melody often labeled “Amarcord (Titoli)”—functions as the score’s emblem, returning throughout the film in varied guises to evoke memory, innocence, and small-town ritual. Characterized by singable lines for strings and winds with light dance inflections, the cue helped frame Rota’s soundtrack as one of his most beloved works. The film itself, released in 1973, won the 1975 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, further cementing the theme’s cultural resonance.
