Roman Holiday

This movie needs no introduction...It is one of the sweetest movies on celluloid. Its a painting of the colors of life in black and white...

The movie describes the escapades of a youthful spirit embellished in heavy royal drapery. Everything in her life is based on a "schedule"..Nevertheless, her pubescent heart want to break free, to enjoy the life..the movie then moves on a romantic, fairy tale of a news correspondent's tryst with "Her Highness"....In some senses it is the Cindrella's story reversed..... Just as Cindrella had to return back before her shoes gave out, Anne too had to return to the prison of royalty..He sense of duty to her country prevented her from enjoin herself..

Arent we all like that.. We do things that we are supposed to do, but we may not like it....A life in schedule is life confinement within sky high Bastille walls....and to remain within this system and perform our duties we need some escapades, free from the worries of daily life..

Are you still reading my review? what a sucker!!!! go and catch this movie if you havent already....if you have, watch again if you havent thought about all these..

Overall 8/10
Acting 8.5/10
