Aug. 7 – He made us dream with Anita Ekberg plunging in the Trevi fountain screaming: “Marcello, come here!,” with ” La Dolce Vita ” and the amused gaze of Giulietta Masina in “Il Circo.” Twenty years after Federico Fellini’s death and forty after therelease of “Amarcord”, Italy pays tribute to the great director with an event in the Year of Italian Culture in the United States, entitled “Beyond La Dolce Vita”. Scheduled for November 22 in Los Angeles, the event will be a concert of Italian Cinema in the “Royce Hall” on the University of California campus: a multimedia concert with music by Nino Rota written for the great master of Italian cinema. A preview of the evening will be presented at the Teatro Strehler in Milan on September 8, on occasion of the Festival MiTo.
