AceShowbiz - Woody Allen's "To Rome with Love" has unleashed its first trailer. Featuring a set of notable actors, the sneak peek offers a look at some daily-life events revolving around a number of people who live in the capital of Italy.
The dramedy, which is told in four vignettes, was previously known as "The Bop Decameron" and "Nero Fiddled". The story follows the life of some Americans, some Italians, some residents, some visitors - and the romances, adventures as well as predicaments they get into.
The movie was initially perceived as a modern-day take on Giovanni Boccaccio's "The Decameron". However, Allen later insisted that his film has no connection to Boccaccio's stories.
Aside from Allen himself, "To Rome with Love" stars Alec Baldwin, Roberto Benigni, Penelope Cruz, Judy Davis, Jesse Eisenberg, Greta Gerwig and Ellen Page. Sony Pictures Classic will release the film in the U.S. on June 22.
This dramedy marks Allen's latest directorial film taking place in Europe after Oscar-winning "Midnight in Paris", which grossed $148 million worldwide. His previous European movies included "Match Point" and "Scoop", which were both shot in London, and "Vicky Cristina Barcelona", which was filmed in Spain.
