10/10
definitely a 10!!! A must with all romantics!!!
16 September 2000
What can I say? I'm married, and very much in love, but boy, if ever I was to be unfaithful, it would have to be in a situation like this one, with a guy as ATTRACTIVE as MICHAEL GREYEYES.

I'm a romantic all my life and this is now MY NUMBER ONE ROMANTIC FILM. Don't just casually watch this one. You have to really sit down and let yourself be engrossed in the film to completely appreciate it's finer points. The connection and passion between M.Greyeyes and Janine Turner is incredible and on each encounter elevates to a point where you cannot believe they can hold out so long without a touch, a kiss or anything!

By the time you get to the recapture bit, it's almost an emotional relief when they finally kiss. This film portraits the male/female relationship beautifully without reverting to the usual sexual tactics displayed so often.

Another film of this genre which too shows a similar play with escalation of emotions in such a subtle fashion, is the UK adaptation of Jane Eyre, interpreted by Samantha Morton
