My feelings on "La Dulce Vita" are varied. I enjoyed the bits I understood but from only seeing parts of it and not really understanding the story line, it is difficult to form a more educated opinion of the film. I would love to see the movie in its entirety so that I could form a better opinion of how I truly feel. It was fascinating to find out that the director did a sort of follow up film with the stars of his movie to find out what their feelings were about the filming process and how the film had affected their careers.
“I just saw a new print of this wonderful film after not having seen it for maybe 20 years and it is still spellbinding.” - Robert Hirschfield http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053779/reviews
If this can be said about a film 20 plus years later, perhaps it is worth looking into again now. Points may be made about the fact that the pacing is slow in some places but it has been said of the film that it imitates life. The pace of life is slow at some points and fast and confusing at others. Reviews of the film are as varied as the people who post them.
