雨神的女儿
Roman Holiday is a classic romantic comedy. Princess Ann is a royal princess of an unspecified country. One night she visits Rome to do her official duties, but every minutes of her time is scheduled. Her doctor gives a sedative to help her sleep, but she secretly leaves her country embassy and goes out alone to experience Rome. After she falls asleep on a public bench because of the injection, which is given by her doctor. Joe Bradley meet her by chance and he does not recognize her as a princess.It was one of a charming comedy which is starring Audrey Hepburn. Her acting was so fun, this movie makes me hilarious. If you have never seen this movie, I strongly recommend this movie. Audery Hepburn was a royal princess in this movie, and also she was my princess in my heart.

Spalding Gray writes of a "perfect moment" which one strives to have on a holiday -- a moment in time where there's not a stitch out of place, and you can go home knowing the holiday has been worthwhile. For me, much of Roman Holiday is one sustained perfect moment.In fact, it's hard to believe the entire film takes place over little more than 24 hours. During this short day, Princess Ann rebels from her old life, falls in love and grows up enough to accept her destiny. And she even has time to stop for a haircut and an ice cream en route. Audrey Hepburn's transformation from a VERY young looking girl (honest, she looks 14 when she gets ready to go to bed near the start of the film) to a desirable woman is truly remarkable. No wonder Gregory Peck's character (and, arguably, Gregory Peck himself) fell in love with her. He wasn't alone. The film is nearly 50 years old, and it still holds that same power.In her first major film outing, Hepburn displays fine comic timing, and a sense of bizarre humor. Check out the subtle scene where Ann accepts what she claims is her first cigarette ... and then smokes it like an expert! Considering the temperature averaged around 100 F during filming, she also seems to enjoy her ice cream cone a little TOO much.For me the perfect moment of perfect moments is when Audrey (NOT Princess Ann) reacts with sudden fright when Gregory Peck appears to get his hand bitten off in the Mouth of Truth -- only to break into laughter when Peck pops his hand out of his "empty" sleeve with a perfectly timed, "Hello!" Apparently, this was a practical joke Peck and Wyler played on Audrey. For a few seconds, the real Audrey Hepburn is on screen for the world to see. It's a moment to cherish.Peck is his usual solid self -- and as a reporter myself, I can identify with the pressure Joe puts himself under to protect his big scoop. I should be so lucky as to find myself on the receiving end of a princess's affections. It's hard to believe that the Eddie Albert who plays Peck's bearded (and skillful) photographer is the same guy who went on to do "Green Acres." He's excellent here, and I'd give my eye teeth to have a cool lighter camera like his.It's sad the film was never made in color, but the black and white gives it such a classy feel, you don't miss it. And if you don't know the ending -- don't let anyone spoil it for you. Just have the hankies ready.This is one of the best films of the 1950s -- a relic of a carefree era long past and the precious debut of an actress who is still mourned years after her loss. .

Roman HolidayThanks to some recommendations from my friends , I have recently enjoyed lots of nice films. And last week, the film ‘Roman Holiday’ has impressed me a lot. As a remarkable work in the film history, this film is really worth watching.It can be summarized in such a delightful story (This may be a spoilerJ): Princess Anne, who was performed by Audrey Hepburn, was getting bored with her restricted schedule when she was on a publicized tour to Rome. One night, she sneaked out of her luxurious residence and fell asleep on a public bench in central Rome. However, she was found by Joe Bradley, an American newspaper reporter, who was performed by Gregory Peck. Joe took her home without knowing who she truly was. Anyway, he was subject to make a big fortune by secretly interview the princess when the truth turned out. But instead of that, after showing Ann around the city and having a good time with her, he forced himself to say farewell to her, for he knew the romance between them oughtn’t to be happened because of their great difference in standing, even though they had fallen in love with each other.The end of the romantic film is really disappointing to most of the audience, though it ought to be imagined at first. However, Audrey Hepburn had successfully performed Ann as a naughty, naive and sweet angel, who ordered a glass of expensive champagne without thinking, who curiously had her first cigarette, who fell in love with a poor but kind man, and who finally firmly returned to the place she hated, only because of her responsibility. She was really charming and graceful, not only from her innocent eyes and expressions, but also from her particular character.
