La dolce vita (1960)

An exuberant Sylvia (Anita Ekberg) dances barefoot to a stoic guitarist. DP: Otello Martelli.

Various characters lose their shoes in Fellini's hedonistic La dolce vita, most famously Anita Ekberg after entering a freezing Fontana di Trevi with paparazzo Marcello Mastroianni.

“I like lots of things. But there are three things I like most: love, love, and love.”

– Sylvia
