Much of what made it notorious was its incorporation of real people, events and lifestyles, making it a documentation of its time. It uses performance, camera movement, editing and music to produce a striking aesthetic mix of energy and listlessness, of exuberance and despair. Richard Dyer's study considers each of these aspects of the film     phenomenon, document, aesthetic     and argues that they are connected. Beginning with the inspirations and ideas that were subsequently turned into \u003ci\u003eLa dolce vita, \u003c\/i\u003eDyer then explores the making of the film, the film itself and finally its critical reception, providing engaging new insights into this mesmerising piece of cinema.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46619438514334,"sku":"UBD-9781838719845","price":26.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781838719845.jpg?v=1773899780","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781838719845","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
