Rating: Summary: One of the GREATEST movies ever made !!!! Review: I had seen An Affair to remember when I saw this movie, but I will have to tell you that they are both wonderful. I cried my eyes out when I saw An Affair to Remeber and I cried my eyes out when I saw this one. I don't understand what this movie did to get such rewives. I LOVED IT and I can't watch it to often :) If you think that An Affair to Remember is one of the greatest movies ever made you'll have to see this one too. It's amazing how two movies can come out this good with nearly the exact same script. BUY THIS ONE NOW AND YOU WON'T BE DISSAPOINTED !!!!
Rating: Summary: KATE HEPBURN MAKES THIS WATCHABLE Review: I have not seen the Cary Grant version so I had little to compare this predictable chickflick with. In fact the first 40 minutes or so can pretty much be skipped. I'd say the film even starts when Katherine Hepburn appears on the scene. She lends the movie its spine, the very reason our two protagonists come together, and the movie is a very decent romantic story from then on, with an occasional tinge of humor. Benning in particular is stunning with her understated rendition of a woman in emotional doldrums. A worthy rental overall, but not exactly a spectacular movie.
Rating: Summary: One of the Best Romance Movies Review: I have seen An Affair to Remember long before I watched Love Affair. Altho "An Affair..." became one of my favorite classics (along w/ Gone with the Wind and Casablanca), I personally prefer Love Affair because i was more moved by it. the actors are brilliant, especially Ms. Bening, whose eyes captivate the audience. she just GLOWS in it and Mr Beatty is effortless in playing himself. they give the film a sense of reality. the movies basks the audiences in feeling of excitement, despair and hope of falling in love. it's a classic. so yeah, don't forget the box of tissue. i can't get enough of this film!

Rating: Summary: my hope and your love Review: I have seen this movie maybe five times. When I saw first time it, I knew that it's my favorite story I dream all the time as my first romance.And after that time, really I had chanced to experience this kind of life. But it was over with the sad ending. So,now I dream again an happy ending of me as Terry and Mike met again in the movie. Most of all I like their piano song!
Rating: Summary: Wonderful Remake of a Remake!!! Review: I love Romance movies and this remake of a remake is one of the best romance movies I have seen! I'm a Cary Grant fan and have seen An Affair To Remember but I peferred Warren Beatty's version! I haven't seen the original Love Affair from 1939 (from which An Affair To Remember was a remake) starring Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer but definitely plan on watching it sometime.
Rating: Summary: "Love Affair" Review: I loved every minute of this charming movie. The superb performers made this love story come alive for me. I really liked Katherine Hepburn as Warren Beatty's mother. She made me feel she was talking from the heart about her own true love that had passed away. The scene with Annette and Katherine was so honest. The movie was tasteful and is something I would be comfortable watching this movie with my mother-in-law or my adult children, in fact any age child. The love scene on the boat left to the viewer to play out in his or her own minds what was taking place, without it being shown on the screen. I loved the ending with Warren holding Annette. I don't usually like movies that are redone as well as the original, but this one I liked even better, it showed more truth and feeling. Bravo! Wonderful! Excellent! Thank You for making this exquisite love story.
Rating: Summary: A pleasant enough trifle Review: I remember the legend of Warren Beatty trying to sweet talk Katharine Hepburn into appearing in this remake of AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER, which is in every way a better picture. Hepburn made some outrageous demands and Beatty (as producer) just smiled and gave in everywhere, for he knew that he would need one last gasp of the old Hollywood to give this remake what luster it had, the way that RAGTIME floated by on the coattails of Jimmy Cagney's great return to the screen.
Earlier in his career Beatty had successfully transplanted HERE COMES Mr. JORDAN and made it into HEAVEN CAN WAIT, displaying a casualness about the title that made some of us wince (for HEAVEN CAN WAIT was a different old movie, all its own, and totally different than the reincarnation plot line Beatty and Buck Henry "borrowed" from the old Robert Montgomery classic. But turning AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER back to LOVE AFFAIR (its original title) Beatty came a cropper. Parts of the movie are cute, and Bening is a wonderful actress, and almost a star, but it needed someone (I think) who is 100 per cent a star and she's only about 95 per cent.
This was the first time that his fans noticed the heavy gauze veils through which our aging Adonis Warren was now forced to photograph himself, otherwise he'd look rotten as old scungilli. In some shots the gauze droops a little and it looks like another actor entirely, it's disconcerting. Director Glenn Gordon Caron had previously worked some chemistry magic between feuding co-stars Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis, actually making them look as though they could tolerate each other, on their TV series MOONLIGHTING, but the magic isn't there for LOVE AFFAIR. Is it true what they say, that box office dwindles when you put a married couple in as the leads of your film? Seems like it here. What a disappointment.
Rating: Summary: A love story to remember! Review: I was shocked to hear the bad reviews of this movie. I loved it! This could be because I never saw AnAffair to Remember. I cry everytimeI see it. I recommend this movie to everyone I talk to about movies. Annette Bening is beautiful and her acting wonderful. Warren Beatty sexyand handsome & smooth to top it off.
Rating: Summary: Love Affair - a Classic Review: I watch this one over and over! I never saw An Affair to Remember; and I've outgrown old movies, so I really appreciate Love Affair. When I first saw this movie, I didn't even know Beatty and Bening were married... the chemistry was obvious. I love both of them in this one. The scenes from Tahiti are beautiful... I'm going there! If you like tear-jerkers and happy endings, this is a true love story and worth keeping in your video library.
