Roman Holiday

Peck meets Hepburn at the via dei Fori Imperiale.

To be more precise, where the via della Curia meets the via del Tuliano. SJ.

Arco di Settimio Severo which also features in 'Blue Murder at St. Trinian’s', 'Where the Spies Are' and 'Light in the Piazza'.

In front of the Arco di Settimio Severo. SJ.

A sign? No think it just says house for sale.

It's via Margutta 51, though the next lot to roh007 don't match inside the gates, as far as I could see. SJ.

But Peck's apartment is well known as being in the Via Margutta just north of the Spanish steps.

Nice view from the terrace.

Peck's front door.

The main exit.

I think the notice says it all. Keep out, location lovers of Margutta 51! So we still don't know where the next now was taken. Inside here? SJ

Audrey Hepburn going down the stairs-tunnel from Joe’s flat, and going out into Via Margutta…

The same place. Photo John Donaldson, who found the places others didn't reach.

The main entrance, daytime shot of roh003.

Via Margutta again. SJ.

Via Margutta. There is a film Via Margutta, it was an artistic quarter and a sort of Italian "Tin Pan alley". The "I" sign on the left was a wartime air raid shelter sign.

And again heading towards the Spanish steps. SJ.

Fontana di Trevi, seen in 'Three Coins in the Fountain', 'La Dolce Vita', 'Gidget Goes To Rome' and 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie' among others.

The Trevi fountain, from the corner of via del Lavatore and via della Stampiera. SJ.

Hepburn seeks a haircut in the Via della Stamperia.

The barber's is at 85 via della Stampiera, now selling handbags. SJ.

The doorway opposite the barber's with a nice view of the Trevi Fountain.

Peck on the other side of the Trevi fountain in via Poli. SJ.

The Spanish Steps leading up to the Chiesa di Trinita dei Monti, also seen in 'The Talented Mr Ripley', 'Blue Murder at St. Trinian's', 'Roman Holiday', 'Seven Hills of Rome', 'The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone', 'Light in the Piazza' and 'If It's Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium'.

Now by SJ.

Cafe Rocca, Piazza della Rotonda.

Now just a clothing shop. SJ.

That looks like the back of the Vittorio Emanuele II monument to the right.

Yes it is, taken on the via del Teatro di Marcello. SJ.

The Colosseum.

The "then" was taken on the third level where we lesser mortals can't reach. Here it is from the second level. SJ

Piazza Bocca della Verità.

Now. SJ.

Peck, Hepburn and Albert in front of the Tempio di Ercole.

Still on the Piazza Bocca della Verita, just south of roh017. SJ.

Peck tests the Bocca della Verita in the Chiesa di Santa Maria in Cosmedin.

And this is through the gates with often a queue of tourists keen to prove a lack of mendacity. SJ.

A Roman will know this in a flash! But nothing about this "wishing wall" was forthcoming for 10 years, perhaps as the messages have come down. Viale del Policlinico, north of Termini, Roma.

Steps leading down to the Tiber.

Now. SJ.

With this view of Castel Sant' Angelo.

Now. SJ.

The final scene. Nice palace.

Now. The magnificent Palazzo Colonna, located at Piazza dei Santi Apostoli 66. Our thanks go to John Donaldson for this.
