In 1959/1960 Rome, Marcello Rubini (Marcello Mastroianni) is a writer and journalist, the worst kind of journalist--a tabloid journalist. His job is to try to catch celebrities in compromising or embarrassing situations. He tends to get quite close to his subjects--especially when theyre beautiful women. Two such subjects are local heiress Maddalena (Anouk Aimee), and Swedish superstar-actress Sylvia (Anita Ekberg), with both of whom he has affairs despite being engaged to Emma (Yvonne Furneaux), a clingy, insecure, nagging, melodramatic woman. Despite his extravagant, pleasure-filled lifestyle, he is wondering if maybe a simpler life wouldnt be better.
Basking in the allure of early-1960s Rome and bustling Via Venetos elegant sybarites and cosmopolitan celebrities, hopeful writer and now-stylish columnist Marcello Rubini spends his nights looking for the next big story--or better still, a new excitement. Balancing between hedonism and cynicism, self-loathing, and an irrepressible yearning for freedom and beauty, the philandering reporter will put his undeniable charm to the test, when international film star and unattainable object of desire Sylvia arrives in town. Against the backdrop of the eternal Fontana di Trevi, dreams burn down, as an undying hope for a better future gives way to a new set of enticements--this almost-feral passion for life and an equally unquenched desire for love have always defined Marcellos thirsty existence. How high is the price for a hearty slice of the sweet life?
