La Dolce Vita
La Dolce Vita
Fellini's seminal work sees writer Marcello Rubini (Marcello Mastroianni) given the assignment of writing a gossip column about the rich and famous (of which he is neither).

This influential and often caustic exploration of "the sweet life" of Rome was one of the most widely seen European films of the 1960s, establishing the director's reputation as an important commentator on contemporary life.

Revolving around the passivity and vanity of its decadent central character, Fellini's film also parades a cast of beautiful supporting players, including Anita Ekberg, Anouk Aimée and Nico.
