Hollywood Hollywood is an album by Italian singer-songwriter Roberto Vecchioni.

Contents

The theme of the title track is cinema, but intermingled with other themes typical of Vecchioni's art: love, women, drinking. "Sestri Levante" is an autobiographical ballad about a painful love experience. "Parigi" (Paris) is another declaration of love for France and its poets, but, as usual, mixed to personal experiences and themes.

"Morgana" and "Dentro gli occhi" are instead two shows of Vecchioni's fable and dream inspiration.

Trivia

  • "Fellini 8½" contains excerpts from Nino Rota's main theme of the homonymous movie by Federico Fellini.
  • The album features a gatefold cover by the Italian artist Andrea Pazienza.
