A beautiful love story between two married people who encounter a chance meeting at a railway station. What follows is battle of emotions and morals as they struggle to come to terms with their feelings for each other.
In todays society, its very difficult for people to relate to just how frowned upon such an affair would have been back then - such things seem to be common place nowadays. If viewed with this in mind, then Brief Encounter is a truely classic love story, and one of the best British films ever made. >>More Details |

This very rich confection is memorable and is more of a movie experience than a simple movie, because just as the all time great movies do, it grips you emotionally. There are faults you can find in it, certainly, but when it's finished you are still with it, and this has most to do with the affecting performance of Smith, which is intense, emotional and even a tad theatrical. It didn't follow the book very closely, its direction is quite stolid, you can't ignore the 'acting' of Maggie Smith, and some find the Rod McKewen song a bit intrusive and maybe even incongruous with the period of the film, but you remember this movie and remember the experience of watching it.

Celia Johnson alwaysgives an outstanding performance as Jenny, and her stay-at-home daughterrole with an overbearing minister father (Ralph Richardson) is neat,spare, and as effective as Julianne Moore as Laura Brown in the recent TheHours.

The essence of the traumas surrounding the expatriate exodus from newly-independent Far Eastern countries in the late '40s and '50s is vividly captured in this absolute gem, all filmed in the beautiful high country of India. The casting and performances of Trevor Howard and Celia Johnson - indeed of the entire cast - are on a level rarely encountered. "Staying On" is a timeless jewel in every respect.

What can i say? This video, perhaps the last stand-up show she will ever do, is fantastic. The highlight, if its possible to have one bit which is better than the others, is "Holiday Shagtastic". It a song she performs as Jane Macdonald parody, and is HILARIOUS! An absolute MUST for any fan Laura :) 5 STARS >>More Details |

By far the best screen version of the book, and for a originally made TV movie (Hallmark Presentation), it blows away the theatre version which came out 20 years later starring Liam Neeson. Very moving, and the soundtrack does a great job of adding to the story. If you've read the book, do yourself a favor and watch this...better yet, buy it. If you've never read the book, after watching this adaptation you'll probably want to.
