Cinecitta, Italy’s numero uno film studio, began its 50th birthday celebrations over the weekend with a special anniversary ceremony Friday attended by director Federico Fellini, actress Claudia Cardinale, other Italian film notables and Italian politicians. Italian President Francesco Cossiga visited some of the film sets before watching a documentary on Cinecitta’s achievements since its official founding by Benito Mussolini on April 28, 1937. Fellini has made most of his films, including “La Dolce Vita,” at Cinecitta.
