I am enjoying this DVD of La Dolce Vita very much.
There are many scenes of Paparazzi swarming like mosquitoes with their cameras.
I did not realize that the word paparazzi comes from a slang word for mosquito.
There is one scene where two children are peacefully asleep behind mosquito netting.
It occurred to me that perhaps the netting is symbolic of how the children are innocent and sheltered from the world.
I am surprised at the detailed references and allusions to religious themes in the movie.
