LA DOLCE VITA (1960) 18434

Original French 15x22 Poster Folded Once Very Good Plus Condition Art by Yves Thos

Original French 15x22 poster for the Fellini masterpiece LA DOLCE VITA The ensemble cast is shown is various states of revelry and/or degradation. A rockin' party to be sure. The film depicts seven days (and nights) in the life of an Italian journalist (Mastroianni), who is torn between making something serious of his life or drifting along on a pleasant stream of casual affairs and meaningless work. Fellini gives us a wonderful chronicle of a decadent society where there are no real values other than alcohol and sex, and no solutions except suicide. Fellini's widescreen look at Roman life at the beginning of the sixties mirrors Hollywood's fascination with historical Roman epics of the period. LA DOLCE VITA is, quite simply, one of the most famous films in the history of the cinema. It created a sensation when it was released. A landmark score by Nino Rota leaves an indelible imprint in the minds of all who see this film for the first time. The film was nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Director for Fellini, Best Screenplay, and Best Art Direction. It won the Oscar for Best Costume Design. The poster was folded over once and the edges show minor distresses. Otherwise this poster is in nice shape with vivid color. This small French design evokes the finale of the film in which all the characaters revel at a party in a house near the beach. Art by Yves Thos. Absolutely authentic.
