The postings here dismiss Mr. Oldies' great job in compiling the more meaningful sequences of Jean Negulesco's movie. They also give little thought to Sinatra's hit song being very popular at the time, much more so than were the alternative renditions that they submit. Moreover, many are likely not familiar with the movie. That Fox assigned Mr. Negulesco light entertainment should not take away the congratulations that are due Mr. Oldies, indeed.

Man, that mid-50s technicolor really pops. Big fat saturated colors. Gorgeous. I believe the cinematography won the Academy Award that year.

Just came back from a romantic 3 week holiday in Rome where this film was made. It was romantic for the scenery, the magnificent art, charming cobbled alleyways and of course the majestic, historic buildings which we only covered a fraction of.. We also went to the famous Trevi Fountain where the 3 ladies in the film threw the coins and made a wish. We did the same and tried to visualize what it was like back then. Rome is certainly an Aladdin's cave of wonders that kept on giving every minute of every new day we were there. 3 weeks was not enough to see all its glory but we got a taste of it as well as the fab cuisine

I am not the greatest fan of Sinatra but, my goodness, this is superb. The sensitivity and phrasing is incredible. The whole song evokes a strange longing in me but for what? I have no idea. Maybe the past when such songs and films were made - better times.

The Fountain of Trevi. It appeared in Roman Holiday (1953) during Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn's secret whirlwind romance. In Fellini's La Dolce Vita (1960) Anita Ekberg wades in it one night and entices Marcello Mastroianni to join her.

It's been said that the song, written by Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn, was created in Hollywood from the screenplay, while the film was being shot in Rome. The song was so well received, that a fountain montage was shot so the song could be the first thing in the movie and its popularity was extensively used for radio promotion.

This song carries special poignancy for me. As a child I visited and spent considerable time in Rome, as my father was employed with UN's FAO branch and divided his time between there, the States and whatever other country his job would take him.

I just listened to this song fully, I know I have heard pieces of it through the years, after finding out it won the Oscar for Best Song in 1955 over Judy Garland’s “The Man that Got Away”. I really cannot understand what Academy voters saw in this song. No one sings this song anymore, it’s relegated to elevator music status. But, “The Man that Got Away” is a nightclub staple and is still covered by different singers, male and female. It has much more staying power. Three Coins in the Fountain is perfectly pleasant, but it will never match The Man that Got Away.

Wow, watching this, realized movie, the pleasure seekers, was a kind of copy cat, great one with ann Margaret, Pamela Tiffin, Carol Lynly.
In this entertaining 1954 nominee for the Best Picture Oscar®, three American women in romantic Italy (Dorothy McGuire, Jean Peters and Maggie McNamara) decide it's time to end their single status. So they whimsically toss coins into Rome's spectacular Trevi Fountain for luck in love. But none has the kind of luck she hopes for in this fun romp that also stars Rossano Brazzi and Louis Jourdan. Actors Clifton Webb Dorothy McGuire Jean Peters Louis Jourdan Maggie McNamara
