Federico Fellini’s “La dolce vita” (the sweet life) is celebrating its 50th birthday with celebrations stretching around the world and across the months for this famous, historic Italian film.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will be holding a “dolce vita” exhibition early next year, while the town of Rimini has already hosted a convention on the film.
The film, famous for its scene of Enita Ekberg in the Trevi fountain, and for inventing the name ‘paparazzo’, will likely be well celebrated around the world.
History goes that Fellini conceived his film in 1958, shot it in 1959 with a subsequent premiere in 1960.
The ‘dolce vita’ story is one of lust, boredom, envy, luxurious degradation and the extreme, strangely civilised, anarchy of the upper classes.
Here in Italy you can see the exhibition of Fellini’s book collection in Rimini until April 2009.
For more Fellini and La Dolce Vita events, look out in the coming months for screenings and more exhibitions.
