This movie is a real tear-jerker. It is excellent in EVERY single way! I could watch it over and over again! The characters are wonderful. The plot is unexpected. One to watch with your girlfriends (girls night)too. Guys, don't know how much you would appreciate this movie, it definitely has great appeal for women because we can more understand the two female main characters. This is a movie you will never regret getting. You will never feel you wasted you time watching it. When you sit down to watch it, don't move! You cannot miss a minute of it, you might miss something critical. By the end, you will be bawling, if not WAY before!

This movie really took me by surprise since I knew nothing about it when I found it on TV. The plot is really good, the script is good and the characters are all lovable and enjoyable, thanks to the actors that play them. There is nothing really complicated in it; the director doesn't get lost in what would seem a complicated situation, he makes it seem simple and real. Even if the story is told in flashback, you never get lost, as it happens with other movies which use the same element to tell a story. And the performances are very powerful without being overacted. In the end, even though one of the people in the love triangle dies, you are not left with a sense of emptiness or dissatisfaction for it because her significant other has found a new love. To be honest, I wish all romantic movies were like this!

I really liked this movie, except it really took me a certain mood to get into watching it, because I knew how sad it would be. It had an older feel, like it was made more in the 70's. I enjoyed the foreign connections, how both were involved in Africa and Italy. How different their backgrounds were, and the real to life situations. It was extremely realistic.This movie was very beautifully portrayed. But I have a question for anyone who knows the answer. The music in this movie was very moving, but especially the last song when they're playing both piano and cello together. Does anyone know the name of the song they played, or the composer? Thank you.

I saw "Only Love" on television last week and I thought it was one of the best though saddest movies I've seen.Each of the three main characters I thought played equally good parts.Matthew was so genuine, tender and committed and he still got on with his life and ambitions even though he was heart broken.I fell in love with his manner. Evie was a fun loving true friend which encouraged me as too often we hear of friends moving away and the contact is broken forever.I believe we can have that type of friendship in real life. Silvia was a gentle,loving person and my heart went out to her as she gave up her "life" so to speak.Even though she was head strong in her ambitions,she still gave that up for her "word" Although I would have liked to see a happier ending for all I can see how this film was truly a love story in the fact that it was a sacrificial love.We humans are selfish and too often we make decisions on how it will effect "me" instead of looking out for the other. My husband and I cried when we watched it.It was good for both of us.
