A young, blue-blooded scribe named Marcello breaks up with Fulvia and meets an aspiring actress, Anna. Alas, their passion is marred by fighting and fits of jealousy, and Marcello choses to go it alone. In a departure from his comedies of manners and satires of social mores, Dino Risi draws a convincing portrait of Rome’s uppermost crust in the 1960s.
