Darleen: I think the main part of the movie was filmed in San Gimignano,
in northern Tuscany.The church at the end ("St. Peter's) is surely
Monreale, in Sicily. (Neithr Francis nor Innocent was ever there.) But
it's a great setting, esp. the use of that marvelous mosaic above the
apse. Pardon Tillinghast, Middlebury College
