Beautiful college librarian Suzanne Pleshette (as Prudence Bell) quits her job after officials scold her for dispensing a naughty book on love (read "sex"). She decides to cool her heels in Italy. Not a bad choice of locale. In Rome, Ms. Pleshette meets doughy cute Troy Donahue (as Don Porter). The Technicolor twosome have the expected "Rome Adventure". But, Mr. Donahue's attractive girlfriend Angie Dickinson (as Lyda Kent) gets in the way. And, Pleshette also attracts native Italian charmer Rossano Brazzi (as Roberto Orlandi) and shyly insecure Hampton Fancher (as Albert Stillwell). Romantic in any language, Emilio Pericoli's "Al Di La" became a big top ten hit in 1962. The film's music and Italian scenery are its strengths.
