3Roman Holiday (1953)
Location: Rome
This classic romantic comedy by William Wyler features Audrey Hepburn (in her Oscar-winning role) and Gregory Peck as they explore Rome during one magical day of freedom. The movie won three Academy Awards and made many Roman landmarks famous. Their iconic Vespa ride passes by the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon, Castel Sant’Angelo, and the Trevi Fountain. Visitors today can follow their path beginning at Via Margutta 51, the movie home of Gregory Peck’s character. As one of the earliest and most loved films set in Italy, it remains a true highlight of Italy movie tourism.
