A Room with a View (1985)

dir. James Ivory

Lucy Honeychurch (Helena Bonham Carter) gets a room without a view – Pensione Quisisana, Lungarno degli Archibusieri 4, Florence, Italy. The Pensione Quisisana was damaged by a car bomb blast in 1993 and had to close. It's now the Hotel degli Orafi.

The titular view was filmed from the terrace of a private residence across the Arno River.

Ponte Vecchio, Florence, Italy

Lucy and her chaperone Charlotte Bartlett (Maggie Smith) embark on a tour of Florence with another guest, novelist Eleanor Lavish (Judy Dench) - Piazza della Santissima Annunziata, Florence, Italy.

Eleanor salutes to the statue of Grand Duke Ferdinand I, Piazza della Santissima Annunziata, Florence, Italy.

Lucy wanders off to explore more sights alone – Santa Croce, Piazza Santa Croce 16, Florence, Italy.

The Santa Croce interior

Lucy looking at Dante's cenotaph - Santa Croce, Piazza Santa Croce 16, Florence. A cenotaph is an "empty tomb" or a monument erected in honor of someone whose remains are elsewhere. Dante is actually buried in Ravenna where he died in exile.
