This movie needs to be required viewing in school for every kid, to show them what real love is...that it's not just sex addictive love that most grow up believing love is today.
sallyplus4 it felt real because it was real. Jane Seymour recently admitted publicly that they fell “madly” in love with one another during the making of this film. Really makes you appreciate it that much more knowing that.
When I first saw this film in the early 1980's, I couldn't relate to it as much because I looked at Christopher Reeve and always thought of him as Superman. But over time, this movie has grown on me. It still nakes me believe in things like love and relationships. The music for this film, conducted by John Barry, always gets me. It's a very sweet melody that just tugs at your heart, and doesn't let go.
This movie reaches deep into everyone passion of beauty and absolute love, everybody seeks this and the fortunate do find it. But to have love and loose it without no cause of each other is just speechless.
When I was a kid my Mom used to make me watch it with her. I am not ashamed to say that even the opening scene makes me cry to this day. The movie is so powerful I have to be totally mentally prepared to watch it and can honestly only watch it maybe once a year, although it is never far from my consciousness. It is the true story of perfect and all consuming love along w/ a very interesting and realistic take on time travel - for ex. where did the watch originally come from? It can't be explained from the movie - it's a time paradox that would likely happen if one did time travel. Just a beautiful and tragic story - but I warn you, if you watch it front to end you will NEVER forget this movie and you will always long for an alternate ending.
Joe, I lost my Mom a bit of 4 years ago, and she was still a romantic at 88 yrs old! She called me one day (in the 80's) and said, "Diane, you HAVE to watch this movie that just started." Needless to say, I've watched it probably 50 times! So nice to know a man is not ashamed to admit they 'cry' and 'feel'! Be Blessed, Joe!
In the novel the watch was a gift from McKenna to Collier, before he return to the present. The way the watch was introduced in SIT does not make sense from a time travel perspective. The watch cannot originate in the past and present simultaneously.
Eighties Joe that's a good question with only one answer, the watch was from The America Watch Co. out of Mass circa 1908 railroad model and purchased by Richard when he first visited Michigan in June of 1912. The watches were quite common there after the railroad accident. He left it there in 1912 and in 1972 it was returned to him. In 1980 he returned once more creating a full memory for his new life.
I'm an old man now but this movie effects me the same way it does you. It reminds me of a time when I thought I had lost the one thing I loved most in my life. She was waiting when I came home and has been by my side ever since. We charish this movie like a dream come true. Never stop loving.
Ever since the first time I watched this movie I have used it as my standard. I got very lucky and actually found the love of my life. This movie doesn't just bring a tear to my eye... the passion behind every frame brings out all my emotion like nothing else. WARNING... don't listen to this music at work. Some people just don't understand.
I was 25 when I've watched this movie. I'm not into romantic movies at all, but this one, really got me! I am in my 50's and I still cry when I watch it.
OMG In my own life I relate so much to this film. In May 1964, I met and fell hopelessly in love with a beautiful girl of 17, barely 4 weeks before I was due to enter into a forced and tricked marriage. We had two beautiful, never to be forgotten days together and then from circumstances beyond our control, we were forced to part, supposedly forever, when she and her parents moved to West Australia. We were able to steal one more night together when I drove over there 5 weeks later but that was the last time. I drove back to Adelaide, a lovesick wreck. This girl had affected me beyond belief and I never ever got over her. I subsequently went through two more marriages (after the first tricked one lasted only 13 strained months). The girl in W.A. stayed in my mind forever after,.. I still loved her, I never got over her, even though she had gone forever, back in 1964.We all have one true love that soars above all others and simply NEVER dies , ..this girl was definitely mine,..but she was gone forever.....right up to a phone call out of the blue in October 1987,..over 23 years later. ....I answered the phone and suddenly I heard that voice on the other end of the line. I absolutely turned to jelly as I shook with utter disbelief....it was her voice. Shocked, stunned, surprised, emphatic, overjoyed, pinching myself, speechless or a combination of all of the above, hearing the voice that I had been positive that I would never ever hear again in my life.. We talked on the phone for three hours and the 23 year gap seemed like just yesterday. Three weeks later, I got back to West Australia and we fell into each others arms at the bus terminal. Both of us still trying to assure each other that this wasn't a dream, that we were together again,....after 23 lost years, we had found each other again. That was 6:30 am on the Sunday morning of November 22nd 1987. We spent all of our time from that moment on and the rest of the day and night, just talking and talking and talking, trying to make up for all the lost 23 years. Chris had just turned 40 years of age a few months before and still as beautiful as when we had first met in 1964. On the following day, Monday 23rd,..at exactly 11:01 am, while we were sitting at the kitchen table, still talking our heads off and trying to work out where we go from here, Chris suddenly suffered a fatal heart attack,.......and passed away in my arms. Words will never be able to describe what that did to me on that morning and the effect on me ever since. I never got over her during that 23 years and I have never gotten over her since that day, now almost 29 years ago. I have watched 'Somewhere In Time' so many times now and I continue to keep watching it as I keep remembering how much it makes me want to think,.....is it possible.....IS it possible.?....no, of course it isn't,....but then again..............???.......dreams are still free.
Lance S. Brother my heart hurts for you just reading that story. You will see her again one day. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful romance tragedy
Thank you for giving us this beautiful video and this wonderful music , I consider John Barry an exceptional composer , I love his music , every day I delight in this melody, again thanksMostrar másMostrar menos
I read that John Barry wrote the music after his parents had passed away and he was feeling low and melancholy...some of the best music he ever composed.
Saw this movie just by chance a couple of years ago after turning on my TV on a winter's afternoon. I'm usually into sci-fi and action movies but I decided to watch this movie anyway. It just blew me away. Absolutely beautiful movie with two beautiful and great actors. The different emotions I felt stayed with me for days if not weeks after watching the movie. Love it.
This is one of my most favorite movie of all time.The performance of Christopher Reeves was impecable and so so romantic. Don't know why he did not get an Oscar. Well the entire movie was fantastic, it was truly an ensemble production, everything was so perfect.
For anyone who ever thot that Christopher Reeve could only play Superman, this film provides all the evidence you'd ever need of his range as an actor. The music alone turns me into a blubbery mess every time I hear it. There's a magnificent round dance choreographed to it as well. This is a marvelous, evocative work of video editing. Thank you, BadZKarma.
Richard S. Russell Absolutely agree with you, Christopher Reeve was a perfect gentleman through and through, Jane Seymour is a beautiful amazing woman good gracious .
This is my all-time favorite movie. When I was a kid, my mother used to play the soundtrack to Somewhere in Time and I loved it! I never saw the movie until years later. Thank you so much for sharing this video.
Jane Seymour is one of the most beautiful women of all time. This film really showcases her stunning beauty,,, This is such a poignant film. I'm crying---and I'm a 48 year old man, soon to be 49! LOL
I could watch this movie forever..... John Berry (RIP) was the best and the music with the actors/actresses will stand the test of time.... Thank You for a beautiful movie!!!
The critics panned this film but I didn't care. I went back to see it time and time again. Is probably my favoritie movie of all time. So glad others eventually got to see it on TV, it deserved a much larger audience than it got on its intial release. Hard core fans belong to an organization called the International Society of Somewhere In Time Enthusiasts.
+gdouglas999 I agree with everything you have said about this movie. It's timeless. I get swept away in it every time I hear the music are watch the movie.I just purchased it. Love like this is inspirational.
The Critics of the time were still high the drugs "Star Wars" and "Superman" and other popular BS rather than script content. they wer eokay with fantasy as long as it had constant action, and critics are still the same today. Critics have to kowtow to the money making nachine too oiften to remain viable and popular themsleves. How many good movies go unnoticed because they don't have the nudity, language and violence and special effects and catchy main theme and a line of death toys to go with your Happy Meal? They wer o kay with the fantasy of Star Wars and Superman but not with this? Hahahahahhaa...hypocrites. To me this is Christopher Reeves' greatest movie outside of his sickening Superman series. After the first Superman, it went downhill. No one would accept hm as an actor beyond Superman for a long time. And Jane Seymour was wonderful in this. And Mackinac Island was the star of this picture really, everyone loves to go there and see where Somewhere in Time was made. Nothing phony about that.
I know the love the two of them shared. I have the same with my wife. We knew we were always meant to be and to be without her now, I would want to do as he did at the end of the movie. I love her with a love I never knew I was capable of. And when I look into her eyes, I can see the same love looking back at me. We met 40 years ago and took different paths but we were brought together 7 years ago and were married recently. This movie is great and although I am a man who doesn't view too many love story movies, this one is the exception. They both played incredible roles and I just know they had fun doing it.
Spring 1986 .. when I was a foreign student in Grand Rapids, Michigan .. I had the opportunity to travel up north to Mackinac Island and visited the Grand Hotel. 2 nights there just wasn't enough ... Its a beautiful place then.. and I am sure it is as beautiful as ever ... now ..and ... as beautiful as you can imagine. And this movie ... took me back ".. somewhere in time".
There are no words I have to express my love for the music, idea, performance. But the hardest thing I've ever encountered is the way it made me feel about my life. It will always be with me. I have bought copies to share with a few but I really don't think it will impact them like me.
I went to Mackinac Island,Mich. before the movie came out.When "Somewhere in Time" came out,i couldn't believe how romantic it was.The music is part of my life.i listen to it,every day.
I "Found" this film as a VHS Rental when I once lived in S. Carolina and have watched it over & over --For being a "Fantasy" it's become something bigger than life itself for many of its Fans --Blessings to Christopher Reeve , Christopher Plummer & Jane Seymour
The perfect love story for me.. It was 1988, i was in my 6th grade when i first watched this movie & it became my favorite since then.. The soundtrack is just so beautiful it can make you shed tears of love..❤️
4:29 the best scene""""""The man of my dreams has almost faded now. The one I have created in my mind. The sort of man each woman dreams of, in the deepest and most secret reaches of her heart. I can almost see him now before me. What would I say to him if he were really here? "Forgive me. I have never known this feeling. I have lived without it all my life. Is it any wonder, then, I failed to recognise you? You, who brought it to me for the first time. Is there any way that I can tell you how my life has changed? Any way at all to let you know what sweetness you have given me? There is so much to say. I cannot find the words. Except for these: I love you". Such would I say to him if he were really here. """"""
Where were you in my younger days? Too bad our paths didn't cross. My wife thinks the movie silly and stupid. I could watch it daily. Every time I see a female with a long neck I think of Jane Seymour in her glorious Victorian attire. I guess I'm just a dreamer.
I've always loved that movie, so much that I had it played at my former wedding. I wish I would have waited for the 'right' one for that song. I love the clothing and everything about that movie..I can see myself in that movie. ♡
The most romantic movies: A place in the sun The Bodyguard Pretty Woman The Thomas Crown Affair (original) Somewhere in Time Love Story I may have missed a couple.
Once You Find a Love like this You can never, ever be satisfied with anything Less.....What Would We Really Do If Time Travel Were Really Possible ??....Bob Fox
So true...I've been there (or should I say my love & and I were so there). I believe you NEVER can be satisfied with anything less, Bob. I'll think of him in my last moments of life! Think of him all the time. His Birthday is today. Best of EVERYTHING to you!
I JUST WATCHED IT.AND THIS MOVIE IS IN MY LIFETIME COLLECTION NOW. I WILL SEE IT MY ENTIRE LIFE,WHEN I REMEMBER. THIS KIND OF FEELINGS IS NO MORE IN THIS WORLD IN REAL AND REEL LIFE TOO, I THINK. SOOOO MUCH HEART TOUCHING.EVEN MUSIC TOO.THANKS FOR UPLOADING.OUR GENERATION MUST WATCH THIS ONCE IN LIFE.THANKS.
Even though Richard had the fate of leaving her, it was only a few weeks until he saw her again Elise, by comparison, had to wait an entire lifetime, which in the end is the worse fate. And only over a matter of a few cents.....
@Qwerty123 You're right. Richard met her 8 years earlier. It was meaningless to him so he wasn't desperate to see her again. But once he loved and lost her, he only suffered a couple of weeks before he was joyfully reunited with her in heaven. Elise, on the other hand, was devastatingly heartbroken for 60 years. All that time she was figuratively dead inside but still breathing. I gotta agree with Bruce. Richard got off easy in comparison.
Anyone who enjoys this movie, as I did, should at least once in their lifetime visit the island, town and hotel in the movie. (Its in Michigan) I did and it was an experience that I will remember all my life.
Touches the Heart & Very Soul......~~~~If you ever leave "Come Back To Me" my Angel Robby.........Yours Only thru all eternity, With All My Love..........Bob
80 people who gave a thumbs down were born without a soul. This film and story are so perfect.
To this very day, Christopher Reeve is a massively underrated actor. He was very, very good in this movie. R.I.P.
This movie needs to be required viewing in school for every kid, to show them what real love is...that it's not just sex addictive love that most grow up believing love is today.
Amen
Beautiful movie and music, unforgettable. R.I.P. Christopher D'Olier Reeve
One of the most beautiful couple ever to grace the silver screen.
I saw this movie with my dad some many years ago when I was a child, I still remember when he said to me "my son, this is what love should be"😍
your dad is right
A great love story. Portrayed by actors who became the characters and drew you in. Their relationship felt real.
sallyplus4 it felt real because it was real. Jane Seymour recently admitted publicly that they fell “madly” in love with one another during the making of this film. Really makes you appreciate it that much more knowing that.
Hollywood is never going to appreciate a amazing movie so simple in its production like this piece of art
Yap....im ok withyou.....
Is wonderfuull his theme....and the movi....and Reeves....fabulous actor...so many romantic...
Aritist touches our soul. The music, the movie is so powerful. 20 years past, still moved by the movie and music.
i just cant stop loving this movie.....
Everything about this movie is beautiful..The story, actors, chemistry, music is lovely.
I cry every time I see it as well.
+Erika Nann true greatest move i ever saw , wich u can or any one can tell or show me how i could watch it again on my computer ..
you might have to purchase the movie to watch it again. Go to IMDb and you can find it there. :)
+Erika Nann I see it on eBay and Amazon all the time. Goes for a couple of dollars or so. Get it! You'll watch it dozens of times, as I have.
sounds like a good idea. Thank you. :)
I just checked eBay. There are 145 listings for it on DVD, as low as $2.
Greatest love story ever. If this doesn't make you cry then nothing will . Reeve ans Seymour are fantastic and the music is genius ! :)))))
The directing is genius. The way scenes are set up...adds to the mood.
i agree!
When I first saw this film in the early 1980's, I couldn't relate to it as much because I looked at Christopher Reeve and always thought of him as Superman. But over time, this movie has grown on me.

It's a very sweet melody that just tugs at your heart, and doesn't let go.
Amazing movie.I can not stop crying every time I see this movie,I fell in love only one time in my life and it was just like this beautiful story.
i cry so hard watching this movie too.
One of my favourite classic films. I really feel the love the characters shared with each other. I love the movie so much 😍
hauntingly beautiful and thank you Mr Barry. a lovelier piece has never been written
The 99 who gave this a thumbs down have never seen a good movie.
No taste masterpiece stay safe sending love from UK x
i agree
No Heart !
I watched this movie many times....very sad but powerful superb love story, no love story can match this movie..
This movie reaches deep into everyone passion of beauty and absolute love, everybody seeks this and the fortunate do find it. But to have love and loose it without no cause of each other is just speechless.
Beautiful timeless film xx
When I was a kid my Mom used to make me watch it with her. I am not ashamed to say that even the opening scene makes me cry to this day.

In the novel the watch was a gift from McKenna to Collier, before he return to the present. The way the watch was introduced in SIT does not make sense from a time travel perspective. The watch cannot originate in the past and present simultaneously.
Eighties Joe that's a good question with only one answer, the watch was from The America Watch Co. out of Mass circa 1908 railroad model and purchased by Richard when he first visited Michigan in June of 1912. The watches were quite common there after the railroad accident. He left it there in 1912 and in 1972 it was returned to him. In 1980 he returned once more creating a full memory for his new life.

Lance S. Brother my heart hurts for you just reading that story. You will see her again one day. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful romance tragedy
Lance S. Reading that..I am touched..I f e e l. y o u..Thank you for sharing
Lance S. Wow is all I can say! Very emotional!
Lance S. You are a sweetie!! You will always have the memories. Yes, and one day you will eventually see each other again.X.
Wow Lance, is that story true? If so, that's truly tragic and yet... indescribably beautiful.
Thank you for giving us this beautiful video and this wonderful music , I consider John Barry an exceptional composer , I love his music , every day I delight in this melody, again thanksMostrar másMostrar menos
I read that John Barry wrote the music after his parents had passed away and he was feeling low and melancholy...some of the best music he ever composed.
Most of the music is based on Rachmaninov's 'Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini', and yes, very melancholic.
such a nice piece for Christopher to leave us ...
Saw this movie just by chance a couple of years ago after turning on my TV on a winter's afternoon. I'm usually into sci-fi and action movies but I decided to watch this movie anyway. It just blew me away. Absolutely beautiful movie with two beautiful and great actors. The different emotions I felt stayed with me for days if not weeks after watching the movie. Love it.
RIP Chris. I listened to this theme over and over at Desert Storm.
Still one of the best romantic movies of all times; truly underrated. Just the music alone makes me cry and the ending leaves me in a flood of tears.
One of my favorite movies of all time. Beautiful and timeless. Great job with this tribute!
Another one of my favorites..Mackinac Island is beautiful.
This is one of my most favorite movie of all time.The performance of Christopher Reeves was impecable and so so romantic. Don't know why he did not get an Oscar. Well the entire movie was fantastic, it was truly an ensemble production, everything was so perfect.
The actor, George Reeves, played the original Superman for television, in the 50s. Chris Reeve played the first movie role, in '78. Reeves and Reeve.
For anyone who ever thot that Christopher Reeve could only play Superman, this film provides all the evidence you'd ever need of his range as an actor. The music alone turns me into a blubbery mess every time I hear it. There's a magnificent round dance choreographed to it as well. This is a marvelous, evocative work of video editing. Thank you, BadZKarma.
Richard S. Russell
Absolutely agree with you, Christopher Reeve was a perfect gentleman through and through, Jane Seymour is a beautiful amazing woman good gracious .
Couldn't have said it better!!!!!!
I couldn't have said it better!!!!!!
Just perfection! first saw it when i was ten, it marked me forever, and the sound track, pure love elegance n class, tears through my heart...
the most beautiful movie.. soft and moderate in everything... and talented actors beyond compare...
Great tribute to a Very Special movie that most people are unaware of.
This always takes me to a time I can never go back to again.......I believe it reminds us all of lost and missed loves.......
Beautiful movie.....BEAUTIFUL sound track.......!!!!!!!!!
A great movie, and Jane Seymour is simply one of the most beautiful women that ever lived.
I fell in love with my first love on the island this was filmed on (15 years ago). Needless to say this movie hurts my heart when I watch...
I was in Mackinac city and on the island last week. still picking at the last of the fudge. so beautiful. what happened to your first love?
This is my all-time favorite movie. When I was a kid, my mother used to play the soundtrack to Somewhere in Time and I loved it! I never saw the movie until years later. Thank you so much for sharing this video.
Goosebumbps!! My All~Time Favorite Dream hoping to come true one fine day.
@nicwanna I agree with you!! Thank you very much for watching my video & for commenting...I'm glad you like it!! :)
God Bless!
Katie =^,,^=
Jane Seymour is one of the most beautiful women of all time. This film really showcases her stunning beauty,,,
This is such a poignant film. I'm crying---and I'm a 48 year old man, soon to be 49! LOL
She's beautiful, but this whole experience is, really, from beginning to end!
Victor A I've got you beat. I'm 53. :)
I lost count of how many times I saw this in the theater way back when.
Phil Bolton Wow, A long time ago sir God Bless.
Victor A Me Too Take care.
Phil Bolton 58, male, and my Somewhere in Time "allergies" were triggered. LOL
The best short version of this epic story I have seen.
Movie nowadays will never be able to be this good anymore
+pitot1988 Never !!
Occasionally one will still find a way to be made, although we may have to wait awhile. Titanic was pretty good too.
😭😭
Marc Del Marc, you are 20 years late man! Where have you been? I was talking about nowadays 2016, not 1996...
Oh, give Hollywood a few months, and they'll remake this as a slapstick comedy.
I could watch this movie forever..... John Berry (RIP) was the best and the music with the actors/actresses will stand the test of time.... Thank You for a beautiful movie!!!
This is one of my favorite movies but a vary sad ending.. though.
Who cannot love this movie. I am watched it often and it alway seems "new". My heart is always broken, but I treasure it still.
The critics panned this film but I didn't care. I went back to see it time and time again. Is probably my favoritie movie of all time. So glad others eventually got to see it on TV, it deserved a much larger audience than it got on its intial release. Hard core fans belong to an organization called the International Society of Somewhere In Time Enthusiasts.
+gdouglas999 I agree with everything you have said about this movie. It's timeless. I get swept away in it every time I hear the music are watch the movie.I just purchased it. Love like this is inspirational.
+gdouglas999 This film had romance, time travel and wonderful acting. What else could one want ?
Nothing, Rick. Except maybe some reviews of it by the critics that were less cynical.
The Critics of the time were still high the drugs "Star Wars" and "Superman" and other popular BS rather than script content. they wer eokay with fantasy as long as it had constant action, and critics are still the same today. Critics have to kowtow to the money making nachine too oiften to remain viable and popular themsleves.

And Mackinac Island was the star of this picture really, everyone loves to go there and see where Somewhere in Time was made. Nothing phony about that.
This films' score absolutely set it off. It's at times been more iconic than the film, itself. One of the most perfect films ever
This movie will be my favorite movie and will always be loved by me.
One of my favorite movies, the acting, the locations, the music makes for lots of tears from love story lovers like me.
Touches so deep in my heart
Just lost my precious mom at 90. She just loved the movie and song. We will be playing it at her service tomorrow
One of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. Still makes me cry.
I know the love the two of them shared. I have the same with my wife. We knew we were always meant to be and to be without her now, I would want to do as he did at the end of the movie. I love her with a love I never knew I was capable of. And when I look into her eyes, I can see the same love looking back at me. We met 40 years ago and took different paths but we were brought together 7 years ago and were married recently. This movie is great and although I am a man who doesn't view too many love story movies, this one is the exception. They both played incredible roles and I just know they had fun doing it.
Belo filme! 😍
Beautiful....
Beautiful film. I watched when I was child....Jane Seimour was fantastic
My most favorite movie of all time!
Spring 1986 .. when I was a foreign student in Grand Rapids, Michigan .. I had the opportunity to travel up north to Mackinac Island and visited the Grand Hotel. 2 nights there just wasn't enough ... Its a beautiful place then.. and I am sure it is as beautiful as ever ... now ..and ... as beautiful as you can imagine. And this movie ... took me back ".. somewhere in time".
Big tears drop. I wish i could see beloved mother again in the past like this beautiful movie.
There are no words I have to express my love for the music, idea, performance. But the hardest thing I've ever encountered is the way it made me feel about my life. It will always be with me. I have bought copies to share with a few but I really don't think it will impact them like me.
I went to Mackinac Island,Mich. before the movie came out.When "Somewhere in Time" came out,i couldn't believe how romantic it was.The music is part of my life.i listen to it,every day.
I "Found" this film as a VHS Rental when I once lived in S. Carolina and have watched it over & over --For being a "Fantasy" it's become something bigger than life itself for many of its Fans --Blessings to Christopher Reeve , Christopher Plummer & Jane Seymour
Seriously one of the best movies ever.
thanks for posting this, I Have always loved this movie, and the music is marvellous..from John Barry..heartbreaking..and beautiful..
The most beautiful music!!!!
This movie is so bittersweet. Breaks my heart everytime. RIP Christopher Reeve.
I was named after Elise :) My mom changed the I to a Y though, but I love being able to see where my name came from.
that's awesome!
Oh my goodness, Chris. Reeve is mezmerizingly beautiful! We go to that island every year. I took a picture right by that tree, by the plaque.
I was there last week but I don't know where that tree is. is it behind the Hotel?
ellamae Shut up. You don't know, nothing; do I have the right or not.
I miss my girlfriend. I do - we speak Spanish...
best movie ever seen!
I made it about a minute in before I was crying like a baby. Again. Thanks for the great video!
For this flick, John Berry redeemed himself a thousand times over for his James Bond music. Brilliant score.
6:41 RICHARD!!!!!!!!! Kills me everytime!!
great great music, and fantastic romantic sad movie!
The perfect love story for me.. It was 1988, i was in my 6th grade when i first watched this movie & it became my favorite since then.. The soundtrack is just so beautiful it can make you shed tears of love..❤️
4:29 the best scene""""""The man of my dreams has almost faded now. The one I have created in my mind. The sort of man each woman dreams of, in the deepest and most secret reaches of her heart. I can almost see him now before me. What would I say to him if he were really here? "Forgive me. I have never known this feeling. I have lived without it all my life. Is it any wonder, then, I failed to recognise you? You, who brought it to me for the first time. Is there any way that I can tell you how my life has changed? Any way at all to let you know what sweetness you have given me? There is so much to say. I cannot find the words. Except for these: I love you". Such would I say to him if he were really here. """"""

I thoroughly agree!!!!!!!
Many thanks💐💐💜💜💔💔😢
A wonderful classic set back in time... Love Christopher Reeve...Really!!!
Forever my favorite movie.. I'm such a sappy, hopeless romantic.
Where were you in my younger days? Too bad our paths didn't cross. My wife thinks the movie silly and stupid. I could watch it
daily. Every time I see a female with a long neck I think of Jane Seymour in her glorious Victorian attire. I guess I'm just a dreamer.
I've always loved that movie, so much that I had it played at my former wedding. I wish I would have waited for the 'right' one for that song. I love the clothing and everything about that movie..I can see myself in that movie. ♡

I JUST WATCHED IT.AND THIS MOVIE IS IN MY LIFETIME COLLECTION NOW. I WILL SEE IT MY ENTIRE LIFE,WHEN I REMEMBER. THIS KIND OF FEELINGS IS NO MORE IN THIS WORLD IN REAL AND REEL LIFE TOO, I THINK. SOOOO MUCH HEART TOUCHING.EVEN MUSIC TOO.THANKS FOR UPLOADING.OUR GENERATION MUST WATCH THIS ONCE IN LIFE.THANKS.
Saw this for the very first time while serving in Pusan, South Korea while in the field training! Very powerful movie! R.I.P. Mr. Reeve
1982
😥😥💖💖💖💖this movie is my favorite, i love the wonderfull music, and the music of john barry thank you sooo much
Even though Richard had the fate of leaving her, it was only a few weeks until he saw her again Elise, by comparison, had to wait an entire lifetime, which in the end is the worse fate. And only over a matter of a few cents.....
@Qwerty123 You're right. Richard met her 8 years earlier. It was meaningless to him so he wasn't desperate to see her again. But once he loved and lost her, he only suffered a couple of weeks before he was joyfully reunited with her in heaven. Elise, on the other hand, was devastatingly heartbroken for 60 years. All that time she was figuratively dead inside but still breathing. I gotta agree with Bruce. Richard got off easy in comparison.
Elise dated no one else for over 60 years💜 she was so sad but always hopeful in her own heart
I've always adored this movie, and that music....you did an excellent editing job....thank you for sharing!
Anyone who enjoys this movie, as I did, should at least once in their lifetime visit the island, town and hotel in the movie. (Its in Michigan) I did and it was an experience that I will remember all my life.
Brings sheer joy and tears to my soul to see true love and two people become as one true love is real
Beautiful, beautiful! Love the movie and the music! I could sit and listen to the music all day! Thank you for posting!
Every time I watch just the clips I start getting testy-eyed
A love story, from a man's point of view.
Point of view.
River City Rhythm drum corps is playing the theme this summer. When I heard it this week, it brought tears to my eyes. Such wonderful music.
Just brings me to tears every damn time I watch this. Like right now. DAMN.
Touches the Heart & Very Soul......~~~~If you ever leave "Come Back To Me" my Angel Robby.........Yours Only thru all eternity, With All My Love..........Bob
