Review of La Dolce Vita (1960) by Danny D — 25 Jan 2010
Although certainly styled and beautifully shot like a fellini film, I found this film to be a far cry from some of his other films that I enjoyed far more. rather than a coherent plot the film is 3 hours of random and unconnected moments in marcello's life that are supposed to lead one to an understanding of his plight for love and the meaning of life, but instead I just felt that his life sort of sputtered along until an anticlimatic ending that brought no closure at all.
a beautiful film to look at and ekberg brought some needed charisma to the film, but the story was very unsatisfying for me. the score was almost entirely for the captivating images and wonderful acting.
