If it weren't for Audrey Hepburn, "Roman Holiday" might not have been such a big success, and it might not have the classic status it has today. The 23-year-old Hepburn won the Academy Award for Best Actress in her first starring role in a movie, a rare occurrence. Nearly 50 years later, "Roman Holiday" is still the representative of romantic love movies, and there is no other movie like it.

This romantic comedy has been a must-have classic for moviegoers and critics for decades. In today's technologically advanced world, almost all older films have been treated in color, and only a few black-and-white films, including this one, have been banned. By any measure, it is flawless in its artistry and a perfect masterpiece of the black-and-white era.

Experience the Roman Holiday love story
Beautiful myths from the ancient legends, modern fairy tales from the civilization of the ancient city, a short visit to the achievements of the romantic classic A short visit to the ancient civilized city has resulted in the romantic classic "Roman Holiday", an unforgettable and pleasant experience and a touching love story.
The American Hollywood classic movie "Roman Holiday" in the interpretation of the male and female protagonists of the love story moved me, but also made me full of interest in the city of Rome. In July this year, I had the honor to set foot on the land of Rome, which is a land of fascination for me.
The historical city of Rome exudes a strong cultural heritage everywhere. According to the ancient Roman city planning at the time, the Venetian Square as the center, to the surrounding radiation, constituting the ancient Roman city complex. On both sides of the Imperial Street is the most concentrated place of monuments, east of the street is the famous Roman Colosseum, which was built in 80 AD in order to commemorate the victory of the conquest of Jerusalem, forcing tens of thousands of Jewish prisoners. With the passage of time, the Colosseum has long since become riddled with holes, leaving behind only crumbling walls. Next to the Colosseum is the Triumphal Arch of Constantine, with its statues and inscriptions, built to celebrate Roman victories in foreign wars. When the generals returned from their victories, Roman administrators and senators led the way, followed by trumpeters and chained prisoners of war, who marched along the Sacred Way, straight to the temple. Citizens stood on both sides of the Holy Way chanting slogans and welcoming the victors. Not far from the Venetian Square, the Roman Forum was a place of political activity in ancient Rome, where citizens used to come to see the notices published by the Roman government, listen to the trial of prisoners, or gather here to discuss and exchange opinions on current affairs.
Walking around the piazza, which was the setting for the movie "Roman Holiday," the evening sunlight on the stone steps brings back memories of Princess Anne's visit to the piazza. If you do not mind, spend 2,000 Italian lire to buy an ice cream from the vendor, leisurely sitting on the stone steps, while enjoying the view of the piazza, to experience the love story of Princess Anne met and fell in love with the male protagonist here, you do not think that the love of selflessness, sacredness, sublime and great?
"Roman Holiday" where love stops
There are always some things in this world that can be called eternal, and the movie "Roman Holiday" is one of them. For half a century, hundreds of millions of viewers of different races, nationalities and ages have been y moved by the love between Anne, Princess of Great Britain, and Joe Bradley, an American journalist, on the silver screen - even though their encounter lasted only 24 short hours.
The greatest paradox of romantic movies is that there is no pattern to love, but there has to be a formula for romantic movies. That's why we often see a lot of one-size-fits-all love stories copied from one screen to another. Roman Holiday, however, is a movie that combines all the elements of tragedy and comedy, but gets the emotional balance just right. Their meeting is joyous but not vulgar, their parting is sad but not sad, and any increase or decrease would be too much. In this sense, director William Wheeler is one of those unearthly geniuses who, with measured strokes, builds the romance to a climax and then lets it linger at its most beautiful point.
In the 1970s, there was an unsuccessful attempt to make a sequel to Roman Holiday, in which the descendants of the two protagonists would pick up where they left off -- a blessing, if you will, because all beauty fades inexorably since that point. The fact that two people who love each other live in the same time and space, but can never see each other, is the best illustration of the word "heartfelt".
"Roman Holiday" is the last of the square screen era of prosperity, Audrey Hepburn is the last statue of God in the temple. From that place where love stopped in 1953, Hollywood moved from the mythic period to the heroic, until some 20 years later it was replaced by realism on earth.
It's interesting to note that another 20 years back from "Roman Holiday" roughly, 1934, was the year "It Happened One Night", which ushered in this mythic period, was released. Comparing these two comedy-style films, we see a striking coincidence in their basic plots. Both are a rich girl on the run in simple clothes, both meet a handsome young reporter halfway, and both have a dilemma of choosing between love and identity - the only difference is perhaps the ending, where It Happened One Night closes with a reunion and Roman Holiday stops with a sad ending. Between this joy and sorrow, an entire era has been spanned.
Today, Hollywood's mainstream has gone through several rounds of turnover, and the prosperity of "Roman Holiday" is already 50 years old. 21st-century people can leave something for people to hang on to half a century later. The 21st century people can leave something for people to hang on to half a century later. (Wang Wei)
