Reviews
Often regarded (or dreaded) as the ultimate chick flick, due in no small amount to its fetish-object role in Sleepless in Seattle, An Affair to Remember deserves better than to be the receptor of Meg Ryan's crocodile tears.
Cheapened by the many references in Sleepless in Seattle, An Affair to Remember plays much better than you might imagine.
Mr. McCarey's direction is unpropitiously and unaccountably slow.
Romantic and over the top, but Cary Grant excels in these situations and it almost saves a movie that seemed to lose its way.
Good, but a little too much. McCarey's 1939 version was trimmer and better.
