“I read about some of the bad reviews here. I donu0026#39;t usually write a review of any film I have watched but this time around I felt like I need to jot down something nice about this movie. It wasnu0026#39;t as bad viewing as I initially thought.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI didnu0026#39;t expect it to be on par with other great love stories in calibre of Casablanca or Brief Encounter. But I think it is a decent film, amicable but has sad ending. The film has a beautiful scenery with the great Appalachians landscape during the spring season that makes my heart long to be in that place. It is good enough to fill my time as I didnu0026#39;t have any thing worthy to do. The film flows beautifully, slow at start but still engaging that keeps you glued to the screen.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe attraction between Libby and Will was a bit rushed and Quinn did not convince me enough as a mountain handyman. Something is missing here. The scene where Libby met with Willu0026#39;s son came out of nowhere. They should focus a bit more on relationship between Will and his son so we can fully understand their interaction or left hanging guessing ouselves. Did he love his son or not?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe great Ingrid Bergman as usual carries the whole movie on her shoulder. Put someone lesser in her part and the film would be unbearable to sit through. I enjoy looking at her matured beauty, she was 54 at the time but still has this luminosity and radiance coming out of her. Its hard to compete with her, when she was on screen everybody ceased to exist.”
