The reason for the name is that he had previously made seven films and a "half" film -- I believe it was unfinished, though it may have been a short. So 8 1/2 actually was his 8 1/2th (eight-and-a-halfth?) film. steve hull -- UUCP { linus ihnp4 allegra utzoo decwrl cornell floyd watmath uw-beaver ubc-vision }!utcsrgv!tugs { decvax cwruecmp duke research floyd }!utzoo!utcsrgv!tugs
