Love Affair Audience Reviews

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
jhsimms Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, are so much better than Deborah Kerr and Cary Grant. The love and sex appeal show on screen. But why they put Deborah Kerr with Cary Grant, I don't know. She was awful in that movie. But thank goodness for Warren and Annette, they revived it and did a fabulous job. There version is so much better. You can see the chemistry in their relationship. It is very enjoyable to watch and still cry at the end. Speaking of the end, their version is believable and see they really have emotion for each other. Course they are together in real life too, but they did a perfect job of acting. Loved it! and bought the movie too.
tedg There are multiple reasons to like this. I'll mention two.One comes from the fact that it is a remake. Such things have miraculous properties. Storytelling is all about choices, most invisible. Its the goal sometimes. But when you have a remake and you know the original, then all the scaffolding of the thing becomes visible and you can marvel or not at the changes that have been made. The choices.I do not know the 1939 version, but I do the 57 version with Cary Grant. Its not just mawkish and cheap, its offensive, even vile. The method of presentation depends not on the love, but on the helplessness of the pair. They are quite literally prostitutes, professional paid escorts. He is enchanted by her primarily because she didn't show at the rendezvous and since no one had ever turned him down before he fell in "love" hard, because of the chase. It hit all the negative buttons, even the racist ones.This redone in such a way that it avoids all those faults. It has almost precisely the same story, but instead of cheap sentimental exploitation, you get rich cinematic romance. You get love embodied in actors, three good ones. You get real love — at least so far as movies have — and not infatuation. You have lovers adjusting lives to fit, not tossing advantage in spite.For me it worked as a romantic movie. I know it failed to sell many tickets, and can only guess that it was too honest and true, with not enough sweeping violins. We don't like true love in movies.And that brings me to the other value, the fold with real life. Beatty really was the sort of character he played here, a serial screwer, a man engaged in the chase, someone not to be trusted but who clearly has an image-based artistic side. Benning's reputation was less public, but she was close to being the most desirable woman in Hollywood after "Grifters." They really did fall in love. At filming, she was already carrying their second child. The chemistry is real and conveyed effectively. I make a special study of films where the director is in love with the main actress. Its rare that such a man has such a love, and produces, writes and stars in such a profession of love. Life folded into film romance done competently and cinematically. Is there anything in film romance that matters more?The palette is rosey. Its lovely to watch.Ted's Evaluation -- 3 of 3: Worth watching.
usstowers What's not to like. I love this movie and I am amazed at how many people still have not seen it. I have teenager girls and I instead that they both "An Affair to Remember" as well as "Love Affair" both are classics in my book. It has always been a good story and sometimes the producers and directors fail miserably when attempting a remake. But not in this case. Excellent job. You know, there are just those times when the casting is perfect. I will be coordinating a talent show with toddlers and teens this Fall and would love to locate the song which the children sign language to. I know it is by the Beattles (John Lennon) and is titled "I Will". I just can't seem to find a MP3 file on it. Please help. At this point, I would even settle for the sheet music. Thanks in advance for all your help and comments.
valkyrie47no Warren Beatty is not as dreamily handsome as Cary Grant but Beatty is such a skilled actor that his portrayal of Mike Gambril got through the poignancy of the dilemma of a man at the crossroads. Anette Bening was quite good too, especially in avoiding extreme sentimentality. For those who hate tear-jerker movies, this remake of "An Affair to Remember" would be the one to see.The song in the two versions are different, and the viewer would have a better appreciation for the similarities and differences if the composer, lyrics, and a sound clip of each song were included in the info.
