La dolce vita by Federico FelliniCall Number: CHIFLEY PN1997.D56 2005 DVD
Originally produced as a motion picture in 1961. Winner of the Palme d'or at Cannes. Marcello is a young playboy and jaded journalist who spends his days between celebrities and rich people, seeking ephemeral joy in parties and sex. When a famous film star comes to Rome, he does everything he can to meet her, and when he does, he is totally charmed by her. Famous for coining the word 'paparazzo' after one of its characters, this is one of Fellini's best films and made its title synonymous with the exuberant and decandent lifestyle of an era.
