There are a tiny bit of fold separations, but otherwise, it is very clean.

Federico Fellini's masterpiece, La Dolce Vita ("The Good Life") is a film about one man's search for a significant life. Marcello (Marcello Mastroianni) is a newspaper journalist who writes puff pieces about celebrity gossip, religious visions, and the arrogant and self-indulgent aristocracy. Although successful, he longs to lead a life of more intellectual pursuits among writers, poets, and philosophers. The result is a film that revels in the glitz and glamour of Marcello's world while simultaneously revealing it to be ultimately empty and unsatisfying. Many consider this to be Fellini's finest film, and it is widely regarded as one of the greatest movies ever made, being included on virtually every "Best Movies" list published.
