William Wyler's enchanting romantic comedy won Audrey Hepburn an Oscar.

The elegant actress plays a princess spending 24 hours incognito in Rome.

She's squired by a reporter and photographer, who are well aware of her real identity, and are out for a scoop for their paper.

A series of small but delightful incidents subtly builds up our identification with the characters, lending a great charm and making the climax a truly moving movie moment.

Eddie Albert offers a richly humorous account of the photographer, and Gregory Peck's casual romantic style is ideally suited to the role of the reporter.

As the princess, Hepburn brought a unique blend of naive charm, refinement and elegance to the part that justly made her Hollywood's newest star.
