I just finished Ripley on Netflix. Loved it and all the Beaty of Italy.

This is such a great list, Sarah, Tahnk You!!

As someone else mentioned, Only You is so fantastic. Probably my favorite Rom-Com set in Italy, so naturally I own it. Also I own Three Coins In A Fountain . To plump up this list I would also add Tre Uomini e Una Gamba, (Three Men and a Leg) and also The Big Night. The latter is not set in Italy but the two main characters are Italian brothers who own/run an Italian restaurant and it is infused wi the a ton of Italian culture and belief systems. Finally, I love The English Patient. Yes it is set all over Egypt and Italy, but the retelling is from Italy. Such an important, brilliant film.

Other greats are Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, A Haunting In Venice,

I live in Italy now, and fully embrace life here.

Thank you for such a great list! Several of these are now on my To Be Watched list!
