In the 1950s, Rome rose from the ashes of World War II to become a movable feast for film, fashion, creative energy, tabloid media, and bold-faced libertinism that made 'Italian' a global synonym for taste, style, and flair. Old money, new stars, fast cars, wanton libidos, and brazen news photographers created a way of life captured and exposed in Fellini's La Dolce Vita. Rome was a playground for film stars (Marcello Mastroianni, Anita Ekberg, Ava Gardner, Sophia Loren), fashionistas, exiles, moguls, and martyrs, all of whom wanted a chance to experience and indulge in the sweet life. It became one of the great cultural capitals of the world--with more than just a trace of the city of the Caesars or the Borgias. Dolce Vita Confidential re-creates Rome's stunning ascent with vivid and compelling tales of its glitterati and artists, down to every last outrageous detail of the city's magnificent transformation"-- $c Provided by publisher 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 651 0 $a Rome (Italy) $x Social life and customs $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Rome (Italy) $x Intellectual life $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Celebrities $z Rome $z Rome $v Biography. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z Rome $z Rome $v Biography. 650 0 $a Artists $z Rome $z Rome $v Biography. 651 0 $a Rome (Italy) $v Biography. 941 $a 6 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409024711.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204084408.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110070310.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20181115010153.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006101445.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20171003032404.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4DA4B68095C211E6B0265CBFDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
