Review by Library Journal Review

Iconic Marcello Mastroianni epitomizes blase coolness as a tabloid reporter luxuriating in the decadence of his celebrity subjects in the Federico Fellini international hit that tapped an emerging zeitgeist-not to mention inspired the term paparazzi. With its spacious framing and luscious black-and-white cinematography captured in a pristine digital makeover, this restored classic benefits from extras-including an interview with assistant director Lina Wertmuller-helping to make the case for libraries to upgrade their holdings.
