'La Dolce Vita'

Marcello Mastroianni is the coolest motherfucker in movie history.

Anita Ekberg is the No. 1, all-time movie babe. Man, she's hot. Hotter than hot.

However, Fellini knew how to pack any of his films with gorgeous, breathtaking Italian women. He somehow had the ability to make everything better, prettier and cooler. I don't know if Mastroianni is as freakin' cool if he never hooked up with Fellini.

There is a comment about the jet set and celebrity scene. How shallow and torn those people are as they exist in environments that are completely fake and based solely on money. How maddening all of this can be to live in this bubble and never being able to get out without, thus, sacrificing one's livlihood. It's an empty existence. And a sad one as Fellini tells it.
