The famous singer Frank Sinatra made a song called "Three coins in the fountain" that are set in the setting of Rome. The inspiration for the song is throwing coins into the Trevi Fountain in Rome to make a wish. The song was created in 1955 and was really popular and feature in the movie with the same name. The song is linked with another popular thing in modern culture, films will help it cement itself in modern culture. The theme of throwing coins in the Roman fountain for good luck is a good thing for the movie to go off of because it is a romantic comedy. Rome is thought as a place of love and this made it a good place for the movie take place. These kinds of references make a movie interesting to pay attention to.
