WARNING: Spoilers Ahead
 

In Part 1 of this episode, Grace dissects one of the acclaimed 'greatest films ever made:' La Dolce Vita, directed by Federico Fellini. She discusses the recurring themes of the mockery of the sacred, the imitations of happiness, hypocrisy and futility, and the comparisons to Dante's Divine Comedy.


As this is one of the most complex and symbolic films of all time, she has decided to split this episode into two parts. The second part of this episode will be about Marcello's relationship with the women in this film, the projected feminine archetypes, and the biblical comparisons and interpretations.
