The Italian Job

Nope, this isn't about the 2003 film featuring Charlize Theron and Mark Wahlberg. Make no mistake, though, that's a really nice film that I've seen several times.

This is about an observation made while scanning through films on Netflix - both new and old.

There seems to be a lot of films that are shot and set in Italy. 

Last July, they had "Love & Gelato" which was so fun that I watched it more than 3 times in a week. Then, last weekend, this film popped up in my suggested titles.


"Love in the Villa" is set in Verona, particularly at Casa Di Giulietta. It's a standard rom-com where a feisty American girl meets an uptight British guy. Initially, they're at odds and hate each other. But as the film progresses, they discover each other's good traits. And we know what happens next.

Told you its standard.

Despite that, it's a fun and easy watch. And it's making me want to fly off to Italy again soon.
