La Dolce Vita [M]

Director: Federico Fellini

Starring: Marcello Mastroianni, Anouk Aimee, Anita Ekberg

Fellini's bizarre look at the Sweet Life in Rome in 1960. The film follows seven aimless days and nights in the life of Marcello Rubini, a world weary Roman "reporter" who writes for gossip magazines. It documents the slow self-destruction of an unfulfilled writer, and Fellini hits the mark with perfect precision. Staggeringly hip and modern. Italian dialogue, English subtitles. (AJP)
