Get out your handkerchiefs for this four-star weepie, a 1957 remake of the 1939 Love Affair, directed by Leo McCarey, who also made the original. Grant and Kerr are strangers on an ocean liner, involved with other people, but who can't resist each other for a shipboard romance. They decide to test whether this is the real thing by agreeing to split up, then meet in six months atop the Empire State Building. Is there anyone who can resist that setup or the tragic romantic mishap that nearly splits them up? Can you keep dry eyes during the famous finale? Some prefer the original (with Charles Boyer); practically no one liked the underrated 1994 remake with Warren Beatty and Annette Bening. While occasionally a shade slow, this one soars on Grant's charm and Kerr's noble suffering. --Marshall Fine

What a pity that Fox didn't make the original version "Love Affair" part of this anniversary package. Like director McCarey I prefer the original to this quite good remake. And while I have long been a fan of Cary Grant's acting abilities I have to say that I, again like director McCarey, prefer Charles Boyer to the great Grant.

Rating: - An Absolute Classic
The expression on Cary Grant's face when he opens her bedroom door and sees the painting...well, I cry every time.
