This week on Every Rom Com we have fun joining Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck on their “Roman Holiday.” But we also take this romantic comedy classic very seriously, discussing screenwriter Dalton Trumbo’s time on the Hollywood blacklist, the effects of World War II on Hepburn, and whether or not we ought to feel sorry for royalty in movies. Whether you’re here for the joys of gelato and dancing on barges, a guide to the movie’s stunning locations, or a deep dive into Hollywood history, there’s something for everyone on this week’s show!
