Thanks, ekscrunchy, glad you have enjoyed it. I have to keep going solo as long as I can, better than sitting home!
No, they did not put cheese on the Spaghetti all'Assassina. Hope you enjoy it more than I did, it was just so dry!
Yes, the very large marble foot is definitely in Rome. The first time I looked for it was 2005, then probably a time or two more not long after that. I sort of gave up after that; then when I saw it in the movie, It reminded me that I wanted to find it! I even googled locations used in the movie, but it wasn't mentioned.

SusanP, I stayed once right down the street of the foot on Piè di Marmo - https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/pie-di-marmo - but you say that's not the foot you're looking for. Are you perhaps thinking of Constantine's foot in the Capitoline Museums?

Great report, and I hope you find your foot. Keep searching!

Yes, that one on Pie de Marmo is the one I did find.
Not sure about those in the Capitoline (I have been there, but a long time ago). For one thing, I thought it was just one foot, not two, plus in the picture, it looks as though one is sitting up on a block, not on the ground. I'd hate to think they just made it for the movie! They did a lot of that. The ladies in the movie visited the Capitoline, and it wasn't the real thing, it was recreated. They actually did an excellent job doing that.
