The Sweet (?) Life

Last Tuesday night, I took JOY with me to the Alamo Drafthouse to see La Dolce Vita, the last of the Frederico Fellini film series at TTU. I had, of course, heard of the film for years, and even thought I might have seen it before. However, this is one you'll definitely remember having seen! For 3 hours we experienced life with Marcella Rubini (Marcella Mastroianni), looking for love and happiness in all the wrong places.I was certainly glad to have JOY along for the ride. By the end of the movie, WE WERE EXHAUSTED, which was probably Fellini's intention. Made our settled little nests in the sky look quite welcome!
La Dolce Vita (Italian pronunciation: [la ˈdoltʃe ˈviːta]Italian for "the sweet life" or "the good life")[1] is a 1960 Italian comedy-drama film written and directed byFederico FelliniThe film follows Marcello Rubini, a journalist writing for gossip magazines, over seven days and nights on his journey through the "sweet life" of Rome in a fruitless search for love and happiness.
