A LANDMARK IN ITALIAN FILM
The Trevi Fountain is without a doubt Rome's most acclaimed fountain.
Hotel Fontana's prime location provides guests an exclusive, extraordinary view of the fountain, today deemed the symbol of the Eternal City and ever-sought backdrop for many Italian films.
Without a doubt, the most famous film to portray the fountain is Federico Fellini's "La dolce vita".
In fact, Fellini virtually immortalised the lovely Anita Ekberg in this Italian classic where she played the role of an up and coming actress of Sylvia cinema. Literally, filmed wading through the fountain's fresh water Ekberg's character frequently bathed in the fountain at night, charming the hearts of the audience.
These captivating shots have not only been forever committed to memory, but also established the Trevi Fountain as the symbolic site of the spirit of life. Ever so unique, the fountain's ancient wonder has practically shed its historical roots and entered the world of myth.
This magical quality in which fantasy is founded on reality thereby renders the Trevi Fountain an icon for the joy of life and eternal, legendary beauty.
