ike358 Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I'm a bit embarrassed to ask about this, because I think the movie was famous. But since I haven't seen it since the early sixties (I think that's about when I saw it), that'll be my excuse. It was an Italian 'short', one of three that were released (again, I think) as a single feature. I believe they were meant to be shown that way by the producer/director. I also attach the names of Mastroianni (sp?? sorry bout that) as actor in at least one of them, and possibly Fellini as director. See how embarrassing this is?! Anyway, in the one I remember vaguely, a very buxom lady in a billboard advertisement for milk comes alive for a fellow who has, I think, been fantasizing about her. Also, fwiw, I think I was only able to see this movie because I went with my aunt and uncle, both very open-minded and cosmopolitan great people, at a time when such were hard to find (are they ever not?)

ike358 Posted September 29, 2004 Author Share Posted September 29, 2004 I just looked at Mongo's birthday list for today (just discovered this generous sharing... thank you), and saw the film Boccacio '70 listed under Anita Ekberg (highlighted as well by an extra post). The title rang a bell. The "'70'" part doesn't seem to fit, but then filmmakers don't always count like the rest of us. Could this be the movie I'm thinking of?

theresabackle Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Might be "La Dolce Vita. Marcello Mastroianni and Anita Ekberg. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ike358 Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 The three parts certainly sounds right... was one of them about a billboard for milk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
