An Affair To Remember Ever since its brief mention in the more recent movie," Sleepless in Seattle", "An Affair to Remember " has enjoyed a rebirth of popularity. Starring the ever amorous Cary Grant and the quaintly sophisticated Deborah Kerr, "An Affair to Remember" is the story of romance, love lost and love regained par excellence. Grant the consummate playboy and Kerr, the reserved romantic, meet aboard a ship sailing from Europe to America.

Time passes and then a chance sighting of one another at a holiday concert lets them both know that the spark is still very much alive. Grant comes on an unannounced visit to Kerr on Christmas Eve. He has come to find out why she never showed up, as he did, at the Empire State Building. They talk and in perhaps the greatest love scene in movies, Grant through an incredible round of questions and answers, begins to realize why Kerr was unable to make their meeting. His discovery brings him to her side and to an ending that continues to warm the heart no matter how many times you see it . What else can you want from a valentine movie for lonely hearts.
