Favorite section or episode?

Though it's not strictly divided into chapters, it is commonly segmented into a number of episodes. You can check out the wiki page in case you need to refresh which episode contained what: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Dolce_Vita

I think my favorites were-the one where his friend commits suicide and the epilogue..though the Ekberg fountain one is really something too and serves as a sample to set up the film quite well-both in terms of visual beauty and thematically.

The trouble with quotes on the internet is you can never know if they are actually genuine-Lincoln

The last one with the party and the beach definitely. I also really love the one with Steinberg (not where he commited suicide, although that one was fantastic as well) and Marcello's father.

Episode 3c, when Emma and Marcello are discussing in the car, it's a really incredible scene.

The one with Marcello's father is my favourite episode of this great film. It's both funny and touching. And that dancer girl Fanny (Magali Noël) is so cute.
