What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

It's impossible to tell what the reason for Leo McCarey was to remake his own movie. Comparing "An Affair to Remember" with "Love Affair", it uses the same lines, the same setups. It's a copy, not a remake. The difference is, that "Love Affair" was a Class A- Romance with a faboulus Charles Boyer and a truly stunning Irene Dunne. In "An Affair to Remember" everything was just covered with icing. Truly awful movie.

While there have been countless films about shipboard romances, An Affair to Remember is perhaps the most famous. Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant meet on a cruise ship, and even though Cary's a notorious playboy and Deborah's practically engaged to another man, they fall in love. The scenes on the ship are the most adorable of the film. They try to hide their romance from prying eyes by eating at separate tables and walking in opposite directions when they're seen together, even when they have to stop talking mid-sentence!While the ship scenes are very cute, the rest of the movie is a drama, so be prepared when you rent it for a light-hearted afternoon. This is the second of three version of the film, the first in 1939 with Charles Boyer and Irene Dunne, and the third in 1994 with Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, but I like this version the best. It's not my favorite classic romance, but it's a classic you'll probably want to watch if you a fan of Cary or Deborah. I like their third pairing in the comedy The Grass is Greener best, because I like seeing Deborah's hidden comic talents. This movie really is a must see, though, especially if you've ever sat through the 90s classic Sleepless in Seattle. This iconic, tearjerker ending has been included in many a romance montage.Parts of the movie feel a little boring, namely when Cary takes Deborah to meet his grandmother, Cathleen Nesbitt. Since I don't really find his character particularly sympathetic, I'm not really moved when Cathleen talks about how sweet he really is underneath his cool, playboy persona. But, to each his own. Give it a watch, and even if you don't end up liking it, there's a good chance you'll, well, remember it.

An Affair to RememberYou should always wear steel-toed boots when dating a woman in a wheelchair.Unfortunately, the suitor in this romance isn't aware of his lover's toe-crushing abilities. Terry (Deborah Kerr) is in a committed relationship, but it is tested when she encounters American playboy Nickie (Cary Grant) on her ship home from Europe. Before they part, the pair promise to meet at the Empire State Building in six-months. While on her way there Terry is struck by a car, leaving her paralyzed and him jilted.Years hence, Nickie has become a successful painter thanks to an anonymous wheelchair- bound benefactor. Long considered to be the definitive cinematic love story, this remake of a 1939 version lives up to its designation thanks to its perfectly matched leads and its tearjerker ending that still remains unrivalled.Plus, the easiest way to tell if someone is paralyzed is they've given away all their pants.Green Lightvidiotreviews.blogspot.ca

Deborah Kerr is horrible in this picture. She has no emotion at all for Cary Grant. For being considered a great actress I cant see it at all in this picture. I don't know why they put her next to Cary, she is not matched with him in the least. No sex appeal, no love there at all. Warren Beatty and Annette Bening's version is so much better. Love Affair, they show love for each other, of course it shows, they are together in real life too. All kinds of sex a peel going on between them and it shows on screen. They are so much better. I am glad Warren Beatty made this version or we would be stuck with the horrible lasting picture with Deborah Kerr. I don't understand where the love for Deborah is, since she wasn't even good in From here to Eternity.
