"At midnight, I'll turn into a pumpkin and drive away in my glass slipper." "And that will be the end of the fairy tale."

Fairy tales. The stuff of dreams. We all believe that our lives will turn into a fairy tale at some point. That Prince Charming will sweep us off our feet and carry us away into a place called Happily Ever After. Yet, life never seems to happen that way. Most films these days give the false hope that everyone will find their happily ever after in the most extreme and unlikely circumstances. Yet, Audrey Hepburn's romantic comedy Roman Holiday, exemplifies the sweetness of young love and innocence while at the same time writing an ending that seems realistic due to the circumstances. Roman Holiday follows the life of a young princess who goes missing for a day in Rome as she galavants across the city with a handsome reporter (Gregory Peck). The two ultimately fall in love but realize their fate can only be real for one night. Fairy tales. They aren't always what they seem. But in the end, everyone can find their happily ever after.
