This classic romantic comedy introduced Audrey Hepburn to audiences as a modern-day princess. Stifled by her royal entourage on a trip to Rome, Hepburn's Princess Ann escapes to explore the Italian city on her own. While incognito, she falls in love with an American newspaperman, Joe Bradley (Gregory Peck). When Bradley learns of Ann's true identity, he finds himself torn between following his nose for news - and turning her into a big story - or the growing affections of his heart. A hit in 1953, ROMAN HOLIDAY won Hepburn an Academy Award for Best Actress, and was also notable for its Oscar-winning story by then-blacklisted Dalton Trumbo (credited as Ian McLellan Hunter).

Audrey was sweet as always, plus she and Gregory lit up the screen. The beginning was funny, as time went on the joke faded and you could slowly feel what was coming. And then a bittersweet ending comes, what else? Say goodbye and face your responsibilities. A black and white romantic comedy that I can easily recommend to everyone. It's not stupid like the ones that are currently being made in Hollywood. A better 4 stars.

Audrey is magical in this sweet film, but Peck is stiff, though charismatic. Or maybe you noticed the look of being in love on his face? Still, that doesn’t detract from the chemistry between them. Roman Holiday offers a playfully imaginative screenplay, the foolishness of Italian culture, humor and adventure, and mainly a nice idea derived from the premise on which the romantic plot is based.

A wonderful love story with a lovely Audrey Hepburn and a charming Gregory Peck. The final scene, the meeting of the princess with the press corps, brought tears to my eyes. I had no idea I was so romantic...

A pleasant and easygoing film from the most beautiful city I have ever been to and which, like Princess Anna, I will never forget.

The purest of stories, one that touches your heart. Audrey Hepburn's angelic grace and Gregory Peck's charisma worked together wonderfully in their day in an amazingly witty comedy with truly believable romance. And just when I started thinking that William Wyler was overdoing it a bit, the ending came with the press conference and the climax full of deep gazes, the sweetest smile, and a stylish farewell...

I was really looking forward to Roman Holiday, but it doesn't compare to what I actually got! I could say without hesitation that this is the best romantic film of all time, and that would still be an understatement. A gorgeous Audrey Hepburn (does she also reminds you of Natalie Portman?), a handsome Gregory Peck and magical Rome full of beautiful ancient monuments. An unforgettable combination that runs like clockwork. 100%

A romantic comedy with all the trimmings, as it should be. A great leading couple, music and lots of funny scenes and spoken passages. I was thinking about 4*, but since it impressed me in its own way (especially thanks to Audrey Hepburn), I'll add one.

A well-made romantic comedy from a time when gallons of pathos didn't have to compensate for the writers' incompetence because it wasn't necessary. America's obsession with the fact that the cheeky island has what America lacks is manifested by the constant making of films about various princesses and other noblemen, but when it comes to Roman Holiday, I don’t mind in the least. I guess it's because it's a real film with real actors and real performances, whereas most other similar American films are trash.

Watching this duo is simply a joy. Peck and Hepburn understand each other wonderfully, and there's essential chemistry between them. You'll simply fall in love with them, especially because they're in Rome, and this is essentially a fairy tale about a princess and a prince who, unfortunately, isn't of noble birth. A beautiful example of how Hollywood knew how to film romances that are beautiful, emotive, and narratively intriguing. I'm just almost afraid that the past tense is appropriate here.
