    Some of the scenes are great and interesting while some are dull and pretentious. Some make sense while some don't. I specifically love the scenes with the American actress and the lady from the restaurant by the beach while I hate the scenes at the house parties. The film could have been edited to be shorter, and the themes aren't that obvious if one were to analyze the film by oneself.

    whenever I am down, i always think about this movie. It shows that not even in film you get everything you want. Some time we as humans expect everything to come so easily but in reality that doesn't always happens. Fellini is such a master and I will always look up to him.

    A very modern classic with a sharp focus (sorry) on the role of the media in the creation and promotion of celebrity.

    Must be seen twice to be truly appreciated.

    I need to watch this film again. Fellini does wonderful work though, weaving the characters, plot, and cinematography to express the art and commentary on Italy's social status at the time.

    Love it. Beautiful girls, Beautiul shots, Beauitful stories, Beautiful observation, Beautiful mood and Beautiful messages.

    I enjoy the movie so much. Everyone can has it own interpretion of "La Dolve Vita". It's no point to seek for an only definition of this Fellini's masterpiece.

    Love the part between Aimee and Mastroianni, sexy, sweet.

    another honest look at men and women.

    Actually, Julian, I kind of do understand that. She's a babe. And she's a babe who gets wet in a fountain. I can truly understand how that might stand out in someone's memory, but I agree that this may not be the greatest artistic scene in the film : )

    In some ways, it's a way-before-its-time precursor to Spring Break wet T-shirt contests.

    For me, the greatest scene may be him dismissing the angel at the end. Although I can totally relate to the prostitute's flooded basement. In Hawai`i, that happens. Maybe not a lot, but it happens way more than I like to think about . . .

    I have never understood why when someone thinks in this movie always the first thought is the fountain scene and Anita Ekberg. Yes, of course is a beutiful scene, and a important one, but it´s not the essence of the movie; it has mamy more greater scenes.
