Pros: Debora Kerr's wan smile and Cary Grant's wry grin. Cons: The musical scene at the school was poorly conceived, ill-timed, and badly executed.
Over the years I have been witness to Ms. Terry McKay’s celluloid search for true love. To my knowledge, she has had three great film affairs. One each in 1939, 1957, and 1994. [Well, that is not exactly true. It would be more correct to say that...
Pros: Not much really. Half-decent last twenty minutes. Cons: Acting stilted, atrocious dialogue, implausible plot, unrealistic characters.
Well I thought it was about time I reviewed an older film for a change, and I saw this quite recently. It was a film Id heard a lot about, and apparently the ending to Sleepless in Seattle borrowed heavily from it (my mother-in-law ...
Pros: Lovely cinematography, giant ships, some nice subtle romance Cons: The fifties - codependent relationships, chivalry, silly women
America Goes To The Movies – Write Off
This is an entry in the "America Goes To The Movies (AGTTM) Write-off,” where Epinions members go see a movie on Tuesday, September 25 to support the American Red Cross and the United Way. For a...
I first watched this movie a few years back, after hearing about it for a long time. I didn't rent it, but when it came on a movie channel, ( with NO commercials! ) I thought I would check it out, and see what all the fuss was about. I am so glad I did!...
There I was, about to go to sleep, when I decided to do a quick flip through the channels. A&E was showing this movie, the last scene was on. Within, um, two seconds, I was crying my eyes out.
Pros: Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr, extras Cons: Predictable, overly cloying
Leo McCarey's 1957 remake of his 1939 Love Affair stars Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr as two completely different people who end up falling in love on a transatlantic cruise. Nickie Ferrante (Grant) is a smooth-talking playboy who has a new girl ...
My first introduction to this film was through watching Sleepless In Seattle. I hate to admit it, but that was my introduction to this timeless romance.
An Affair to Remember is, in my opinion, one of the top ten best films of all time. In...
Pros: Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr, tearjerker finale Cons: Unbearably precocious children! Singing!
Nickie Ferrante (Cary Grant) is a world-famous playboy who has just become engaged to Lois (Neva Patterson), a very rich heiress. The news spreads across the world as Nickie boards a ship to sail back to New York from Europe. Everyone recognizes him, as...
Pros: Possibly the bets love story of all time Cons: None
When I first glimpsed Kerr's marvelous acting ability in "The King and I," I almost felt that such a wonderful performance might be an isolated, once in a lifetime incident. Oh, how wrong I was. She is as spectacular in An Affair To Remember,...
Pros: Unforgettable, Great acting, Wonderful plot Cons: "MEN" may not enjoy this.
When it comes to dramas, you have your typical 1990's version: put together rather quickly, nothing truly special. But when it comes to DRAMAS - it doesn't get any better than An Affair To Remember. I can guarantee you will remember more than a little...
Pros: beautifully written and acted Cons: you want more of the movie when it ends
I first saw An Affair to Remember on the AMC (American Movie Classics)Channel and I absolutely fell in love. Actually, a friend had recommended the movie to me long ago after we had both watched Sleepless In Seattle together but I never got around to...
Pros: makes you believe in romance again Cons: it's only a fictional story
The first time I ever even heard of this movie was when it was mentioned in the film "Sleepless in Seattle". I loved that movie so much that I just had to find this one. I was browsing in the $6.95 rack at Walmart one day and there was the...
Pros: Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant. Good story. Cons: Annoying singing children. Old movie style.
I'm young. Only around 20. But I have loved this movie since I was sixteen. Yes, I got into it thanks to "Sleepless in Seattle", but there was a reason why it was featured so heavily in that movie. The story is good. It is what romantics everywhere...
