cena dopo il cinema
Two weeks ago some friends and I went to the cinema to see The American. We had all worked on it, so it was nice to see the film together. After the movie we strolled to the nearby 'Gusto restaurant for a bite to eat. It was a lovely September evening, with still not too many people around in the streets after midnight. The last shot was taken on Via del Corso, looking down towards Piazza del Popolo.

sant'agnese in agone
Sant'Agnese in Agone is a Baroque basilica built in the late 1600s on the site of the Circus of Domitian, where Saint Agnes was martyred in 304 AD at the age of 12. Read her disturbing biography here.
Where the Circus of Domitian footrace stadium once stood, is now Piazza Navona–one of Rome's most visited landmarks.
