La Dolce Vita

How good is your Italian? Mine isn't good enough to fluently understand this film but I understood enough. I will copy the description from IMDB to help you guys out just in case your Italian is not particularly great.
In Federico Fellini's lauded Italian film, restless reporter Marcello Rubini (Marcello Mastroianni) drifts through life in Rome. While Marcello contends with the overdose taken by his girlfriend, Emma (Yvonne Furneaux), he also pursues heiress Maddalena (Anouk Aimée) and movie star Sylvia (Anita Ekberg), embracing a carefree approach to living. Despite his hedonistic attitude, Marcello does have moments of quiet reflection, resulting in an intriguing cinematic character study.

This is a typical 1960's film. I am getting a breakfast at Tiffany's feel from it. I wasn't particularly inspired by the acting from anyone in the film and I know that it is a black and white so less acting is required but even so, there have been better films. Those that have seen Breakfast at Tiffany's and like it will probably like this film. The music gives a sorta, nothing to it feel, very similar to Tiffany's. 
Some of the scenery was quite dazzling though and I was impressed by the lead woman. Filmed Simply with fades out to end scenes, this film is a classic icon of a lack of money or technology and even at parts a lack of imagination. What it does have is simplicity that makes it easy to watch (even if it is in Italian). All I will say against it is that it is too long. Adopting the carefree approach is fine but not for three hours, half it and it would be totally acceptable.
