Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe first motion picture filmed in CinemaScope outside of the United States. Prior to beginning principal shooting, 20th Century-Fox studio execs warned producer Sol C. Siegel and director Jean Negulesco that they would have a difficult time with the new film format away from the controlled settings of the studio. Siegel and Negulesco solved this dilemma by simply taking the studio's entire technical crew along to Rome.
- GoofsAt the beginning of the final scene at the Trevi fountain, the fountain is dry and being cleaned. While the characters are there, the fountain begins to flow; when they leave, the fountain is completely full--not a possibility given the size of the fountain and the period of time over which the scene occurs.
- Quotes
Woman at Cocktail Party: My husband declares that I was simply born to be a writer. He says if anyone just took a pencil and followed me around, they'd have a novel.
John Frederick Shadwell: My dear lady, I should be delighted to get behind you with a pencil.

by Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn
Sung by Frank Sinatra (uncredited) during the opening credits
Sung also by an unseen chorus at the end
But, oh!, those glorious travelogue shots of Rome and Venice. Widescreens, back then, really were worth briefly deserting one's living room "boob tube" and letting one's mind drift into Nirvana as beautiful DeLuxe Color made one believe the world was an impossibly beautiful place. A new DVD version which approximates the original CinemaScope ratio is now available, a distinct improvement over the formatted VHS tape previously available.
