Venice is fabulous in the movies! There's Katherine Hepburn, of course in Summertime but moodier and compelling in a different way is Death In Venice. In fact, I wasn't at all sure I wanted to go to Venice because I thought I would be disappointed. But I wasn't! It was atmospheric, lyrical, just wonderful.

There's an interesting list at: http://www.initaly.com/itathome/movies.htm or Internet Movie Database: http://www.imdb.org/
