I remember listening to this song when I was little, while Mama played it on the stereo console, and she forced me to dance with her. It brings me so many beautiful memories of a time gone by. I just love this song, is so romantic, and melodic! too bad nobody makes music like that anymore!
My parents visited me in Europe while I was in school . We watched as my dad sang this to my French mother at the Lake . Not a dry eye in the house. Everyday I remember that 💕 Thank you Troy Donahue and Susanne Pleshette fir the joy of love !
Very beautiful location as well as song and words. I am almost 90 and that movie as a whole makes my eyes water. Soft,warm, loving- I am a romantic. It's me, don't snicker.
Troy was so handsome, Suzanne was so beautiful, the song is so beautiful, the movie is so romantic, and Rome was so elegant, classic, without pollution then.
Yes I was in my teens then, and now I`m in my seventies, but they were easier times back then. A beautiful song, and two beautiful actors. Troy and Suzanne had wonderful chemistry and were surpassed only by Troy and Connie (Stevens) from the Parrish and Susan Slade movie offerings of the same era. Great memories all!
I saw this awesome movie in my youth with the most awesome Man, Louis O'Reilly! It was the most unforgettable night in my whole life..he was also blond with the most beautiful Blue eyes! I'll never forget him or the movie, my favourite Actors, Troy & Suzanne and the Song!! AL DI LA!
One of the most romantic scenes of all time! Troy was a huge Star at WB. Natalie Wood refused the role that Suzy Pleshette inherited. Rome Adventure was a huge hit. Troy and Suzanne married with-- WB hosting the reception! The marriage failed but Suzanne and Troy remained friends until Troy's death.
I never forgot this song. Followig our high school senior prom, the school arranged to have a local theater screen Rome Adventure for us. My date that night turned out to be the love of my life. I'm now 80 and I still love that girl and that movie.
They were such a beautiful couple. Troy Donahue’s life ended so tragic, I don’t understand what happens. He wasn’t the best actor, but certainly not the worst. He had a charm about him. I’m sorry they’re both gone. Suzanne was a wonderful actress and beautiful.
@@stephenwilliams1269 .....Suzanne was very aware that Troy was a full blown alcoholic when she married him and he had his wicked ways. Their marriage lasted about nine months, however they separated after the first two months.
Never seen the movie but grew up listening to my parents play Jerry Vale so Al DiLa is familiar! I’ll have to watch the movie. I’m a fan of GOOD movies. I grew up in the 80’s and good movies and music are hard to come by.
I so agree with Lynn O.This is my favorite song;it's my husband and my song.We play this every yr. on our anniversary!I to fell in love with Troy Donahue like every red blooded girl in 1962.That was one good looking man and she was gorgeous!God rest their souls.I just got the DVD.
Inez, Richard and I share "You take my Breath Away" from our first movie. I think that may be a thing of the past. We also like "Nobody Does it Better."
I love the adventure of this movie and the song is wonderful. Every time I see Suzanne I think "Emily" (huge Bob Newhart Show fan). As romantic as she and Troy were in this scene, I recall how short their marriage was. I also remember he made movie after movie for Warner Brothers plus TV series Surfside Six and Hawaiian Eye (my favorite) and records. They left us much too enjoy in our later years. Bless them. In fond remembrance.
I can smell the smoke, taste the wine during this romantic moment Troy & Suzanne , the attraction, the longing, & the beautiful AL Di La both are gone but never forgotten (1962)

Suzanne Pleshette...saw her in traffic years ago when my brother and I were driving down Santa Monica Blvd. near The Troubadour...a beautiful woman. Loved her in Hitchcock's "The Birds." Troy Donahue was a sincere actor who was probably better than he was given credit. Of course we all remember him from the television series "Surf Side Six."
Beyond the Beyond... is what every Girl wants more than anything else. Romance is the most wonderful thing we have, why is there such a shortage of it? This Song is the most beautiful the most romantic ever and the Movie too. Every Girl fell instantly in love with Troy Donahue and became a Fan. RIP Suzanne and Troy, you are fondly remembered xoxo
Lynn you have it right! I can't figure the young folk who settle for being called someone's Bitch, etc. I know they all want a ring, a veil, and a song of love to share. Maybe that is why their marriages fail? I married my Italian who writes classical music for me. We will pass together I hope.
karen l. cant stop listening to this song. I wish l could here the english version just so l could understand all the words. Its so so beautiful l suppose it would lose the true beauty of the song sung any other way.
This was our song, we were married 53 years, for years I thought my husband looked like Troy, but in reality he was better looking and Italian into the bargain, apologies, had to share this. PS my husbad had a Red Cashmere pullover, same colour as Troy's💐💐
A very romantic movie , a wonderful song, beautiful scenery, and last, but not least, excellent performances by the beautiful Suzanne Pleshette and he great Troy Donahue. John Khoury, international law
My classmate at Berry College, Edumundo Vargas, from Panama, sang this song in a talent show in 1963ish. In my retirement, I was motivated to study Italian so that I would be able to understand and sing this particular song.
Mas alla es bella cancion yla película donde la escuche hace mucho tiempo se llama los amantes deben aprender fue mi juventud previlegiada que tube al gozar con maravillosas de historias románticas
So beautiful, simply awesome 👏🏻 And Susan and Troy Wow I doubt that was acting, sure looks real to me ! Aldi la such a feeling is simply a miracle ! I saw the movie when I was seven or eight years old and I think it started my romantic journey and for this moment in my youth I am grateful ! 🙏🏼❤️🌈 RIP All of you Lucky, talented souls involved in this production ! 🙏🏼🌺 CHT 2021 🤩🎼
Troy and Suzanne...too bad it didn't last...they were only married for about 1 year...I can understand falling in love in such a romantic place like Rome with a gorgeous man like Troy....the scenery in this film was absolutely beautiful, and so was this song...always LOVED it ~~
I think that I read that it was due to Troy's alcohol that the marriage ended. Still, I appreciate all of the work that he did. I loved Suzanne; she was top notch. The song really takes me back. I hope that you are doing well.
Thank you for posting this beautiful scene from Rome Adventure. Absolutely mesmerizing to me. You can really see the strong chemistry between Troy and Suzanne! Sigh!
A decent movie, and this is the best scene in that movie. In fact, it's a flawless scene. Pleshette looks like a young Elizabeth Taylor and Donahue looks and sounds like a young Alan Ladd. Pleshette had more range than Donahue and would find success on television, while Donahue went nowhere. The song itself was an instant standard and this cover by Emilio Pericoli is my favorite of all the covers ever done. Actually, there is a slightly better cover done by Pericoli himself where he sings the last line in English. I believe it's that version, not the movie version that became a big hit in the 1960s.
The song, and the music score carried the Film, in retrospect looking at it years later , it was more like a Travel to Italy guide, but at the time we loved it💐💐💐
and my impossible dream came true ..1962 .. saw this incredible movie.. it has remained in my memory the story, the music.. AlDiLa.. and in 1985 found myself in Stressa on Lago Maggiore at Hotel la Palma .. who would have ever thought..
She was rocking a solid ten on the attraction meter. Those sparkling eyes, that wonderful complexion, that gorgeous hair and figure. She had me from hello.
