5.0 out of 5 stars Jaglom at his best--DON'T MISS THIS, March 23, 2000

Henry Jaglom was an independent filmmaker long before it became trendy. His films, which are conversational, have their own rhythm and style. "Always" is one of the best.

Basically, it's about relationships and is centered on his own relationship with Patrice Townsend which went sour BEFORE the movie was made. It's a token to their relationship that she agreed to make this film AFTER their divorce.

Some of what we see during a strange Fourth of July weekend is uncomfortable to watch because the feelings are very real. In two hours, we get to understand what made their very close relationship tick, and why love wasn't enough to keep them together forever.

Add in a wonderful soundtrack of oldies and you have a film about people who could be your close friends. As an another bonus, you get to see a VERY young Melissa Leo (of Homicide fame) making her debut.

Jaglom's films haven't been cheap on videotape so you'd better grab this while you can!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sadly beautiful!, February 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Always (VHS Tape)

Since watching this film, I have recommended it to everyone I know. It involves one of the most honest discussions about love I have ever witnessed anywhere. It also does not lack a comical element. Watching Henry Jaglom films makes one want to be a better person, to create better relationships with people. See them all!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent film... beginning to end, March 11, 2009

This review is from: Always (DVD)

This is one of those feel-good, upbeat films. A wonderful movie for & about couples. It is laced with dialogue that examines the characters inside out. Poignant & one you will truly cherish as an added addition to your library. I've seen Always countless times & always manage to get something out of it.

If you like Woody Allen films, independent filmmaker Henry Jaglom's Always (1985) is a treat you will savor. Can't recommend this one enough. I only wish the DVD cover art was of the original movie poster as the video had been. The classic shot of Henry Jaglom & Patrice Townsend extending their hand to each other over the jukebox is an excellent shot! I also happen to be fond of those old jukeboxes from the 50s :-) Always is perfect in every way.
