Having being to Rome many times I was sorry to note how few scenes were actually filmed there. As per the credits, this would have been better titled; "Christmas in Bucharest". . . As for the script, this was poor & the acting stiff. So many things did not make sense. An example is when the couple leave to attend a dinner empty handed, yet they are thanked for bringing 2 panettones!! There are a few scenes filmed in Rome, but not enough to satisfy. I was hoping for a much better film and would have forgiven the issues with the plot and acting if the film had actually been shot in Rome.
