It&#8217;s a story that remains timeless and appealing precisely because, royalty or not, we can all relate to wanting to abandon our given identities and explore the world incognito for a while (not to mention falling in love with a tall, dark stranger!). With that said, its age-old rom-com premise of &#8220;mistaken identities&#8221; leaves room for several gaping plot holes, if you&#8217;re looking: viewers must suspend belief, for instance, that Peck&#8217;s foreign correspondent would have no idea what Hepburn&#8217;s Princess Ann looks like the night before he&#8217;s scheduled to go and interview her (or at the very least, that he&#8217;s taken in by her &#8220;disguise&#8221; as a commoner). And surely Hepburn would wonder why Peck (whose real agenda she&#8217;s unaware of) doesn&#8217;t seem fazed when a group of &#8220;undercover&#8221; men in black suits try to kidnap her from a dance&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>Such quibbles must ultimately be left aside, however, given that Hepburn is so luminous and appealing it&#8217;s difficult to turn our eyes away from her. (No wonder a generation of young woman wanted to BE her!) From the moment we first see her Princess Ann waiting to greet an endless line of well-wishers, trying to get more comfortable by discretely slipping a foot out of its high-heeled slipper, she can&#8217;t help winning our hearts &#8212; therefore, we&#8217;re genuinely thrilled for her as she explores the streets of Rome, experiencing such simple pleasures as getting a short haircut, eating an ice cream cone on the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Spanish_Steps\">Spanish Steps<\/a>, and being &#8220;offered&#8221; a bouquet of flowers by a vendor. While Hepburn&#8217;s the undeniable star here, Peck is nicely cast as the journalist who can&#8217;t help falling for his &#8220;subject&#8221;, and Eddie Albert is excellent as his photographer buddy. Meanwhile, the streets and sites of Rome are a spectacle unto themselves, making this film a bit of a &#8220;Roman holiday&#8221; for viewers as well. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> As pointed out by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s664roman.html\">DVD Savant<\/a>, the story is surprisingly free of any kind of an overt social &#8220;message&#8221;, given that it was scripted by blacklisted Dalton Trumbo (whose ghostwriter, Ian McClellan Hunter, won an Oscar on his behalf).  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Audrey Hepburn as Princess Ann, a.k.a. &#8220;Anya&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-hepburn.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-hepburn.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11718\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Gregory Peck as Joe<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-peck.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-peck.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11719\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Eddie Albert as Irving<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-albert.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-albert.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"481\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11720\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Fine use of on-location sets throughout Rome<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-location.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/roman-holiday-location.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11721\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes, most definitely.
