Reviews

sross-14564 I agree with the review that said we were not given a chance to invest in the characters. I actually cringed when they first kissed. It just didn't fit. The letters didn't make since. He barely knew her yet discribing her character. Wasn't moved at all.

tom_jerico Adapted from a book, it seems like the screenwriters just sketched out enough scenes to cover the various plot points in the book, and unimaginatively. Richard Gere is too laid-back to breathe any life into the lifeless, inevitable plot progression, so it was miscast. Since there are no surprises in the story, no crisis/resolution sequences, perhaps the entire movie in flashback with narration could have saved it? I don't know.

Shamontiel Vaughn There's something about movies with bratty teenagers that will always ruin a film for me. Without the teenagers, this movie reminded me so much of a cross between "How Stella Got Her Groove Back" and "Their Eyes Were Watching God" (the latter more than the first). But the bratty daughter who was super disrespectful to her mother over a divorce reminded me too much of "The Descendants," another movie with kids that need to be disciplined and talk to their parents any kind of way. Without the brat, I may have enjoyed this movie more. I watched the movie because I love Richard Gere, but what's interesting is I never believed the chemistry between him and Diane Lane's character (Adrienne Willis) when he was a stranger at a North Carolina inn. I wasn't even interested in the widowed husband. But once they separated and started writing, the plot picked up tremendously. Problem is that was almost the end of the movie. The last 20 minutes or so are five stars. The rest? Nothing to brag about.

raymond-106 First of all this is a film that women will enjoy. For me it was not as interesting as THE NOTEBOOK or UNFAITFUL both of which were more believable.There are two main characters in this story. Adrienne a busy housewife and mother(Diane Lane) and Paul a surgeon (Richard Gere). They give splendid performances and are on the screen most of the time. Most of the other characters are bit parts.Adrienne's friend Jean (Viola Davis) is the only character that provides any kind of comedy relief. Most of the characters have shattered relationships.Paul has a son Jack also a doctor but working under primitive hospital conditions. Paul is on his way to help Jack and stays overnight in a beach hotel where Adrienne is the relieving manager for her good friend Jean.That night a hurricane hits the coast. Adrienne and Paul find themselves in each other's arms as the storm rages and the shutters bang against the windows. It seemed like a good excuse to show their true feelings. Paul admires Adrienne for the intense love she has for her children.There is a scene in the film that will move many when a local Torrelson family blame Paul for the death of Mrs. Torrelson who collapsed under anaesthesia. Paul answers with statistics but Adrienne gives him a little lesson on sympathy.Paul is at his son's hospital for a long time. Adrienne can hardy wait for his return. Then one night there is a knock at the hotel's door. She dashes to open it...........There are numerous messages in this film about human relations. We are told there are different kinds of love. We can learn from each other and through love we can make amends for past behaviour. The film does not preach. Sincerity is the key.
