Janet S @RT05915608 Aug 20 The trained-to-be-passive woman’s point of view. Expending almost no direct effort, Lisa yearns for Stefan through the decades, and not once, but twice, manages to start a romance with him that he soon forgets. Bad as it is as an example to young women, it’s one virtually any woman can identify with. I suspect gender is the division in the polarized reviews.

(B) See more Steffi L @RT54755644 07/11/2025 It starts out as an apparently conventional love story but is actually far more nuanced and avoids cliché. Both leads are superb. See more Eileen H @RT41641282 03/30/2025 Beautifully filmed and delightfully atmospheric, the sets, music and costumes transport one to the sumptuous romance of 1900 Vienna. For lovers of the finest storytelling, this movie is a treat not to be missed. The story moves at it's own pace as the pianist Stefan reads a letter from his great love, whom he has just discovered, but too late. If one believes in an afterlife, then this movie presents an opportunity to consider that fate may be merciful in reuniting us with those we have loved and lost. The stunning ending brings us to a complete circle, with a revelation about how living a purely self-centered life can cause us to miss the most precious gifts that existence may offer.

Too much talking See more Leaburn O @RT35452347 10/09/2023 Upon quick reflection it will be obvious that she should have tried a bit harder to make this relationship work. Instead we get a load of melodramatic nonsense and bittersweet sentimentality. Watched this one on BBC iPlayer. See more Read all reviews
