It happened una notte

Roman Holiday

(1953)
Reporter shields runaway heiress to protect his story, only to fall in love--yes, derivative and formulaic, but with Audrey Hepburn at her freshest (24 years old, in her first starring role), Gregory Peck doing his best to channel Gable, and Rome a natural as itself, you have to be pretty cranky to resist. Released in the year of my birth.

I am a total sucker for this movie and will watch it any and everytime I can. I love the ending so much. Could they end a movie that way now? I think not.
