"The best thing I know is to do exactly what you wish for a while." Roman Holiday is pure delight, a conglomeration of freedom and ecstacy. When the term "Golden Age of Hollywood" is used, films like this are what pop up on my mind-- carefree and almost royal pictures that are rom-com, this one having no limits to the comedy portion, but still grand and striking in their visuality. Roman Holiday is filled with grandeur and style. There is warmth and there is realistic chemistry that fulfills the charm of this thrilling plot. It is packed with good, light humor, lovely romance that steals your emotions in the duo's favor, and believable yearning only made possible by Audrey Hepburn's charm. The bittersweet ending is a perfect ending to this film and it captures the conflict between the princess' reality and wishes. Overall, Roman Holiday is entertainment at its finest, a charm and classic of Golden Hollywood that is always worth a watch and will most certainly be a film to return to.
