Wikipedia: 'La Dolce Vita (Italian pronunciation: [la ˈdoltʃe ˈviːta]; Italian for "the sweet life" or "the good life")'. Do you think you could give credit for the latter?

Confession: I only got Spanish Steps because I saw it on an episode of Mickey Mouse Racers my son was watching yesterday. You never know when preschool shows will become relevant to your life.

nice - I'd change the Fellini question to something more Rome-related. Maybe year of olympics? Or Pasolini, but I am not sure how famous he is abroad

You think Pasolini and the Olympics are MORE ROME RELATED than Fellini???

What makes Paris a sister city of Rome? Mysterious.

I think probably related to the Roman Empire in some way.

Sister cities are a real thing. It's meant to encourage trade or cultural transfers between the two. For example, St. Louis in my home state of Missouri has signed sister agreements with around a dozen cities around the world.

Didn't know the region and the only Italian director I could think of was Sergio Leone.

Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone (both born in Rome) would be great additions to this quiz, or fodder for a sequel.

Yes to Ennio Morricone (always in any context - the man was a musical god!) but no to Leone. No disrespect to him as an artist or as a native of Rome, but one doesn't think "Rome!" when one thinks of Leone.

Federico Fellini didn't just make his home in Rome, he made the city his muse as surely as Woody Allen or Martin Scorsese have with New York. It is impossible to imagine La Dolce Vita being set anywhere other than Rome.

Did anyone else try Romulus and not get it? Did I somehow manage to misspell it?
