Continuity mistake: When Audrey eats her gelato on the steps of the Spanish Plaza, if you look closely, the time is about 12:00 when she buys the cone. However, when she starts eating it, you can see that it's past 3:00.
Roman Holiday (1953)
Directed by: William Wyler
Starring: Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, Eddie Albert, Hartley Power
Continuity mistake: When Audrey and Gregory are saying goodbye in the car, there are two shots where rain is visible outside the car window behind them. When Audrey gets out and walks away, however, it's dry outside.
Continuity mistake: When Ana wakes up in Joe's room in the morning, Joe's tie goes from being tucked into his belt, to being out, and back in again in successive shots.
Trivia: When Gregory Peck puts his hand into the Mouth of Truth and withdraws it (hand tucked into sleeve) the scream that Audrey gives is real. The prank was unscripted, but the reaction so perfect that it was left in.
Princess Ann: I could do some of the things I've always wanted to.
Joe Bradley: Like what?
Princess Ann: Oh, you can't imagine. I-I'd do just whatever I liked all day long.
Joe Bradley: Irving! Am I glad to see you.
Irving Radovich: Why? Did you forget your wallet?
Princess Ann: What do you sell?
Joe Bradley: Er, fertilizer.
