Perhaps his most famous film, La Dolce Vita slices into the decadent amoral core of Roman society with Fellini’s trademark attention to detail and spectacular photography.
Marcello Mastroianni plays a gossip columnist (the term ‘paparazzi’ derives from the in a film) who aspires to be a more serious writer but knows he never will be, because like society, he is fascinated by the decadent hedonist pursuits which are seemingly everywhere.
The Vatican was appalled by the film, but the public adored it, relishing the images Fellini fed them, most notably the now infamous scene of Mastroianni and Anita Ekberg frolicking in the Trevi Fountain.

La Dolce Vita review by AD
Did I miss something?

This is meant to be one of Fellini's best movies ever, yet I didn't really get it. It seemed far too long and by the end of it I felt as if I had missed something. Can anyone enlighten me?
