A Room with a View, the film adaptation of E.M Forster’s novel from 1985, showcases some of the best sights of historic Florence. The 'view' the title refers to is that of the Ponte Vecchio over the Arno River. You can admire the bridge from afar or stroll across it yourself, where you’ll find an array of shops and merchants set up along it. You can also follow in Helena Bonham-Carter’s footsteps and visit the Basilica of San Croce, where you can find Dante’s tomb, and Piazza della Signoria, Bonham-Carter witnesses a knife fight and is rescued by the handsome Emerson, played by Julien Sands.
