Rome in the 1950s: following the recovery from fascism and Nazi
occupation during the Second World War, the city is reinvigorated.
The street cafes and nightclubs are filled with movie stars and
film directors as Hollywood productions flock to the city to film
at Cinecitta Studios. Fiats and Vespas throng the streets, and the
newly christened paparazzi mingle with tourists enjoying la dolce
vita. It is a time of beauty, glamour - and more than a little
scandal. Caroline Young explores the city in its golden age, as the
emergence of celebrity journalism gave rise to the ultimate film
icons: Ava Gardner, Anna Magnani, Sophia Loren, Audrey Hepburn,
Ingrid Bergman and Elizabeth Taylor. Set against the backdrop of
the stunning Italian capital, the story follows their lives and
loves on and off the camera, and the legendary films that marked
their journeys. From the dark days of the Second World War through
to the hedonistic hippies in the late 1960s, this evocative
narrative captures the essence of Rome - its beauty, its tragedy
and its creativity - through the lives of those who helped to
recreate it.
