I think this movie has many aspects that someone couldn't have dreamed up so, yes, I believe it is probably at least partly true. I certainly can understand people falling in love with Italy and wanted to stay there forever. I fell in love with it in 1988 when I gave myself a trip for my college graduation present. I have been back to Italy several times and it is one of my favorite places in the world.
On one trip, I traveled with seven friends to Italy (as trip leader and planner) where we spent time in Florence, Milan, Lake Como, Siena, Pisa, Cinque Terre, and yes, San Gimignano. We even stayed in the Hotel La Cisterna in San Gimignano at which the British ladies had stayed in the film. We all later saw this movie and loved every minute of it. I enjoyed it even more seeing it this time and I am sure I will be watching it again.
