| The Mouth of Truth |
Near to the
Tiber, by its island, is another tourist hot-spot. The Bocca della Verità (the Mouth of Truth) makes an appearance
in both Roman Holiday and Only You.
The grand Mouth
is in reality rather mundane, but still intriguing. Carved from pavonazzo marble it’s thought to be
either part of a 1st century fountain… or a manhole cover.
It’s possible to queue (and pay) to have a photo taken, recreating the Hepburn/Peck and Tomei/Downey scenes from Roman Holiday and Only You. Or you can you sneak your camera through the railings and steal a shot.

This is a famous scene staring the hunky Gregory Peck and the regal Audrey Hepburn. How much does it cost to recreate that scene?
