20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
As Luca takes his first look around the piazza, look for the poster to Disney's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The picture premiered in 1954, and a poster for the classic stands opposite a poster for Roman Holiday. Take a look at the photo here.

Giulia’s Bedroom
The boys meet Giulia once they are on shore and in human form voiced by Emma Berman. She's a fiery local who wants to race with the boys. If they win, they will receive enough money to purchase a Vespa and take their ideal vacation. Giulia's room is strewn with Disney references. By her bed is a stuffed Donald Duck. There is also an original novel of Carlo Collodi's Le Avventure di Pinocchio, on which the 1940 animated film was based.
