In the first twenty or thirty minutes, I thought it was a bland film about the small cost of French independence. Who said this is a comedy? Seeing a few old ladies sending Luca to chase the train to carry Shakespeare, I couldn't make a sound. Really a lovely old lady who defends art, beauty and love with her life. Cried and watched it all the time.

Title Card: Florence 1935.
Title Card: The love affair between the artistically-inclined English community and Florence was soon to be overshadowed by the clouds of war.
Title Card: But at the moment the sun is still shining on the squares and statues, and the dictator Mussolini is the gentleman who makes the trains run on time.
Connie Raynor: Excuse me, are you the Consul?
British Consul: Yes.
Connie Raynor: Connie Raynor of the Morning Post. I'm fascinated to know what His Majesty's Consul in Florence makes of it all?
British Consul: I can't believe your readers would be interested in our little ceremony.
Connie Raynor: Oh, they are. Since Mussolini, we can't get enough of Italy.
