Synopsis
As the New York Post outlines: "It is set in a real Rome.
A Rome you really miss...It is set there because a young, conservative, slightly stuffy American businessman has come to retrieve the body of his father, who was killed in an automobile accident...what it adds up to is grown-up entertainment...so well done and so basically diverting that it can only be taken for the pleasurable thing it is."-2 women, 7 men
