'La Dolce Vita' star Anita Ekberg dies
[ARABNEWS] Anita Ekberg, who has died aged 83, is likely to be remembered for a single scene in Romes Trevi Fountain, exhibiting her curvaceous charms to an urbane Marcello Mastroianni in Federico Fellinis La Dolce Vita.Although born and brought up in Sweden, Ekberg spent most of her adult life abroad, first in the United States, where she quickly emerged as one of a 1950s generation of pin-ups and starlets, and then in Italia, where she died in a hospital outside the capital on Sunday. Ekberg had attracted attention while still a teenager, winning a beauty contest to become Miss Sweden in 1950. Posted by: Fred 2015-01-14 |
