An Affair to Remember (DVD, 2003, Studio Classics)

Leo McCarey, Cary Grant, Deborah Kerr|Theatrical release: 1957|Rating: Not Rated

Movie synopsis

In this legendary tearjerker, the world's most eligible bachelor (Cary Grant) is set to marry an heiress. But unfortunately for his bride-to-be, while he's traveling alone on a luxury liner he meets Terry McKay (Deborah Kerr) and realizes he's engaged to the wrong woman--and she's engaged to the wrong man. They finally agree to spend six months apart; if they still love each other at the end of that time, they will reunite at the top of the Empire State Building. But the path of true love does not always run smooth, and tragedy threatens to tear the couple apart. Leo McCarey directed both the original (LOVE AFFAIR) and this remake, and viewers often amiably battle over which film is the more touching. This much-loved film features the Academy Award-nominated title song and a splendid supporting cast.

Movie trailer and editorial reviews

"AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER evolves effortlessly, almost invisibly, from light romantic comedy to a kind of spiritual drama, as the characters cast off their public identities and approach their essences..."
New York Times - Dave Kehr (01/08/2008)

5 stars out of 5 -- "This is a classic, combining romance, drama, comedy and style....A love story, but one that touches the heart..."
Ultimate DVD - Ultimate DVD Staff (04/01/2008)

"This much-revived weepie has inspired remakes and pastiches and it's easy to understand why -- McCarey knows just how to crank up the emotions....This is a film that defies you to be cynical about it."
Sight and Sound - Geoffrey Macnab (03/01/2012)

The Movie Other Movies Refer To In Moments Of Romance!

Created: 18/05/07
I have never seen the original LOVE AFFAIR made prior to this version of the story with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr, but I have seen the one later one with Warren Beatty. This one always catches my heart in a way the Beatty version does not. I think it is the classic styling of the movie and the era that makes it so romantic. The characters are real enough for the film’s time, but like a character in a romantic book, there is room for your own imagination to fill in a bit here and there. Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr are sophisticated and elegant and struggling to be more than they have been when fate steps in. All the elements that first bring them together then separate them and finally allow them to find each other again are timeless. This is the movie other movies refer to when talking about romance. Bring lots of tissues, because you’re going to need them!!!

An Affair to Remember

Created: 07/08/06
An Affair To Remember is a must see classic - everyone that is a fan of romantic movies made before 1970 should add this to their collection. Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr portray characters that are so real you almost tend to escape in the movie once you put it on. Be prepared: Kerr does tend to break out and sing a song or 2, and at moments your inner realist may roll your eyes at least once during the movie, but the storyline is definitely worth enduring the few negative points. Cary Grant truly is a man's man in this movie showing a deep emotional side as well as the stereotypical male attitude and behavior for that particular time period. I would buy this movie again and not think twice about it, a rarity even in its time.

A love story that lasts forever

Created: 07/05/06
I enjoyed this remake of Love Affair, it is a beautiful love story of two people that meet on cruise, and fall in love with each other, even they are engaged with other people. They decide to meet again at the empire state building, but an horrible accident stop this reunion. this story has all the elements of the wonders you feel when you first fall in love with someone. I personally liked the original LOVE AFFAIR than I did the remake, but both films capture the essence of deciding in your heart to go after that person you love....

Great movie, classic never goes out of style. A true love story with a good ending. The actors are perfect for the movie, you can't go wrong with Cary Grant.

An affair to remember

Created: 08/10/09
I love this movie. It is one of my favorites. I love old classic movies from the nineteen fourties to the sixties. The only thing I didn't like about my purchase is the movie isn't in widescreen. All those old movies are widescreen. So why do they sell them any other way? I notice most of the auctions for these old movies are not in widescreen or they don't tell you what format the movie is in. So, then you have to email to find out. Takes to much time. When I want to buy I don't want to have to email and email and email. It appears that most don't know what format means. They put dvd for the format or other things. Very annoying. Thanks!
