Review of La Dolce Vita (1960) by Emre T — 18 Feb 2010
Setting aside the small gestures, the delicate observation of daily life and the sympathetic characterisation associated with neo-realism, La Dolce Vita is a large-scale satire with grand set pieces and forceful visual metaphors.
.. The film has probably lost much of its ability to shock, and the orgies are tame by present standards. But it has not lost the power to fascinate, stimulate and provoke, and it remains a work of moral force and a visual delight.
