Significance of The Rome Coliseum

Julie and Thomas kiss in front of the Rome Coliseum. It is an ancient piece of history that is crumbling. The emotions Julie is feeling are also ancient. She is allowing part of herself to crumble away so she can be lost in the moment with Thomas. On a less romantic note, the Rome Coliseum symbolizes that Julie's morals are crumbling and becoming a thing of the past.
