Allen apparently made the decision after concluding that the original title, The Bop Decameron, was too confusing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In a statement Allen said: &quot;I couldn&#039;t believe how few people had heard of The Decameron even in Rome. And the few that did assumed the movie was based on Boccaccio&#039;s tales, which it&#039;s not.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rome is the latest European stop for Allen after an increasingly rewarding string of films set in Britain, Spain and France &ndash; the latest of which, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2011/oct/06/midnight-in-paris-film-review&quot; title=&quot;&quot;&gt;Midnight in Paris&lt;/a&gt;, has become the most commercially successful film of his directorial career.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nero Fiddled, a four-part collection of stories set in the Italian capital, stars Jesse Eisenberg, Ellen Page, Pen&eacute;lope Cruz, and Roberto Benigni, alongside Allen himself, and is expected to be released in 2012.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;related&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;&quot;&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/woodyallen&quot;&gt;Woody Allen&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/romance&quot;&gt;Romance&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/comedy&quot;&gt;Comedy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;author&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/andrewpulver&quot;&gt;Andrew Pulver&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;terms&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk&quot;&gt;guardian.co.uk&lt;/a&gt; &amp;copy; 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.
