Forget the film's notoriety as a love story, please. Forget that Leo McCarey the author was the creator of "Going My Way", a beautifully-thought-out but pro-religious film. Forget that Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr are a wonderfully-right pair of casting... Full review

This film has to be the best romantic film that I've ever seen, even above Gone With the Wind, and Casablanca, but on the same level as The English Patient (my favorite film of all time). After I saw Sleepless... Full review

This is an absolutely beautiful flim, with two beautiful, shining stars. Deborah Kerr, always the epitome of British lady-like reserve... that dainty face and that curled red hair... always bringing a grace to the roles she plays (except for Karen... Full review

What one has to consider about the Deborah Kerr/Cary Grant characters is that they are both "kept" individuals: Kerr by a wealthy Texan named Ken (-doll, played by Richard Denning), Grant a gigolo engaged to an heiress (Neva Patterson). They... Full review

Less rehash than incantation, An Affair to Remember is most affectingly viewed as a dream film. While Boyer previously played off Irene Dunne with a more direct, earnest ardor, Grant's cooler, more detached persona here hides the character's vulnerability behind a man-of-the-world tuxedo not unlike the suave masks of his cat-burglar in To Catch a Thief . ...

Although there's a good deal of humor in the film, it's not a romantic-comedy, which we continue to have more than enough of these days. The process shots, for instance, of ocean or harbor or even nighttime sky look obviously contrived. ... Full Review
