 Still a Gem Aug 10, 2009
Fell in love with this movie as a kid...okay, maybe I didn't "get" it all back then, but I sure did fall in love with Venice. So, when I became that "spinster schoolteacher", it even became more of an iconic film for me! I finally travelled to Venice in the Fall of 2006. I watched the film (on an old video tape) before and after going. It remains a most special film for me. The story may be a little hokey, but it is well done. Katharine Hepburn is sublime, Rossano Brazzi is dreamy, but, for me, Venice will always be the real star!!
Kate Hepburn Favorite!!! Oct 04, 2008
This is my all-time favorite movie--period!!! So, I was devastated to find that my VCR copy had lost a lot of color and sound. Thanks to Amazon, I found this new DVD copy to enjoy.

warm memories Sep 20, 2008
I was in Venice the summer of 1955 when this was filmed.
It brought back warm memories of my visit there.

The Ultimate Venice Tour Jun 05, 2008
Even though the movie is nearly sixty years old very little in Venice has changed. Anyone planning a trip to Venice will benefit from seeing this movie since it perfectly captures the atmosphere they can experience for themselves. You can still visit the location where Hepburn falls in to the canal and the shop that was temporarilly turned into Rossano Brazzi's antique shop. The storyline does not overwhelm the visual experience of the city.

 Summertime, but not all the time Oct 17, 2007
I bought this because of Hepburn and Venice and on those two counts I was not disappointed. The views of the city are outstanding and Ms. Hepburn's remarkable independence shines through. However, the story is stilted by the conventions of the era and David Lean's direction was so uneven it made Hepburn's character look kooky. Finally, I was uncomfortable with the way the movie tells the story of a woman longing for romance in (possibly) the most romantic city on earth, how she stumbles onto it, how she doesn't seem to really enjoy what she's found, then leaves the city broken hearted...just kind of blah.
