It's time to settle on the couch with a bowl of popcorn to enjoy a film set in Italy. If you're really daring, go for the films that are in Italian with English subtitles. This is a great way to get used to hearing the language! (Most of these films are available in both DVD and VHS formats.) (Note: These films are recommended for students study abroad in Florence, Italy, but similar films exist for all countries.)
