I saw "Everytime We Say Goodbye" in 1986 at a small local theater in Miami. It is the only movie I've ever walked out of. And that's saying something.
The film begins promisingly with a unique setting: it's one of the few movies I've ever heard of that take place in Palestine during the Mandate period. Unfortunately it quickly turns into a hack-eyed love story. The last part of the plot with has developments that are so unbelievable they would make "Sunset Beach" blush. I walked out before they got worse.
Tom Hanks and the leading lady perform well with what they are given. It's a shame that great locations and good actors are let down so badly by somebody's notion of a heart rending love story. Mind rending is what it becomes to the audience.
