La Dolce Vita

  • Dir: Federico Fellini

  • Italy, 1960, 176 minmins, DCP

  • Cast: Marcello Mastroianni, Anita Ekberg, Anouk Aimée

This Oscar-winning Palme d’Or winner rocketed Fellini and Mastroianni to international stardom in, ironically, a scathing satire of celebrity culture, and an incisive commentary on Rome’s deepening decadence. Leaping from one visual extravaganza to another, the camera accompanies Mastroianni’s tabloid journalist – a paparazzo, a term first coined in this film – as he chases through glamor or tedium for stories and women. Most unforgettable is the scene of Anita Ekberg wading into the Trevi Fountain, along with Fellini immersing himself in his fascinating vision.

Cannes Film Festival: Palme d’Or

Academy Awards: Best Costume Design (Black-and-White)
