The movie
"A Roman Holiday" a 1950s romantic comedy, which I watched yesterday
was simply out of the world. The movie is about a princess who gets
totally bored with the royal life she is living which is full of
schedules, meetings, interviews, fake smiles and appropriate gestures.
She runs away from this world for one day and has an romantic adventure
with the world outside the palace walls keeping her identity anonymous.
The sweet innocent princess is the beautiful Audery Hepburn.! Hmm.Eh.where
was I? sorry. lost my thoughts for a sec.! yaa . and then you have
Gregory Peck who is a press reporter, who chances upon to meet her and
longs to make a big story out of the Princesss misadventures. The
movie is full of pranks and laughs that leaves one in a surreal
dreamworld. A world seen through the eyes of an charming innocent girl.
The
movie gave me the thought that - as much as we may crave for a
luxurious life sometimes with having high-level meetings to having
servants to wake you up and serve tea etc - that life is not all that
beautiful. We do not cherish some of the little events in our lives and
consider them as mere ordinaries. One should sometimes, give oneself a
moment to ponder about the innumerable good things that happened in
ones life - a life which in actuality might be far better off than any
royal life!
A definite must watch classic for the whole family!.
