The Story
Burstyn and Alda meet at a vacation resort. He's an accountant in N.J., she's a housewife in Ca. They are young and in love ~ with their respective spouses. This does not stop a little tickle between the sheets for them though....
Pros: It's funny, heart-warming, wholesome, real, and full of thought-provoking lessons about personal growth. Cons: There's really nothing bad I could say about this one.
This movie falls into the category that my husband and I have dubbed as "feel good, feel safe" movies. These are the ones that represent a time in American history when it was cool to be clean; when looking good included, by definition, looking healthy; ...
Pros: Excellent performances by both Alda and Burstyn. Touchning story of a growing relationship far beyond a one-night stand Cons: The ending.
I must admit that I was fairly surprised to see that "Same Time, Next Year" had not received a large number of Epinions written on it. I was not at all surprised, however, to see that all of the ones which have been written were highly...
Pros: AWESOME, AWESOME movie! Great acting! Love the "less is more" setting! Cons: NOTHING!!!
Remember Bridges of Madison County? Remember the love and pain? I will never forget Clint Eastwood making "the big turn" out of town. The pain and love in Francesca's eyes-the devotion to her husband and family. They shared such a special...
Pros: Chemistry between Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn Cons: After 20 years of its release, some of the characterizations seem slightly outdated
In Same Time, Next Year the premise is simple. Written originally as a stage play and adapted here for the big screen by Bernard Slade, George (Alan Alda) and Doris (Ellen Burstyn) are strangers who meet at a bed and breakfast and share dinner. They...
The movie, Same Time Next Year is my favorite movie ever!! That sounds very much like a 10 year old, but as a proud, yet tired 45 year old, this movie makes me feel good about true love, even if your Soul Mate is married. The acting is superb and the story is applicable for the times. This is the story of two people who are married to two other people who fall in love with each other and meet the same time every year. They survive through war, death, the delivery of a baby and more death. This is a touching tale of love and it makes adultery look not so bad. A great movie!
Pros: I bought the video then DVD and watch it every New Years. Cons: The couple are married to different people and having an affair every five years.
I saw this movie when it first came out and recognized the beautiful Mendocino Coast in California. The set took place at the Heritage House in Little River, CA and they still have cottages named Same Time and Next Year. Every five years the couple met at the same time with new events in their lives always in conflict with each other. As the years progressed through the 1950's, '60's, and '70's many topics are presented from politics, motherhood, family life, education, death, and love. Same Time Next Year contains no violence, explicit sex, or abusive language, just good comedy, likeable characters, and interesting topic. This is a good relaxing, laughable movie for adults.
