Summertime**       
(GB 1955)    
United Artists/London Films. 99m.

An American spinster spends her first holiday in Venice, and falls for its charms and for an antiques dealer. 
Director and star in are holiday mood for this travelogue romance, a little repetitive and lacking some of the edge of the similar Brief Encounter and Roman Holiday, with luxurious Venetian locations softening the drama. Captures a fair impression of travelling into Venice.
