sweeping epic, May 10, 2001
Based on Danielle Steel's bestseller, NO GREATER LOVE is a dramatic, often heart rending story of those left behind after the tragic sinking of the Titanic.
Edwina Winfield (Kelly Rutherford), the eldest daughter of a wealthy newspaper dynasty, is travelling home on the Titanic with her family and her fiancee.
The Winfields toast her engagement and the sixth birthday of her sister Alexis. But fate deals Edwina a horrible blow when her parents and fiancee go down with the ship.
Edwina tries to re-build her life and the lives of her younger siblings, while Alexis turns against the family and becomes a teenage delinquint.
For 12 years Edwina puts her romantic life on hold, while she raises her siblings, but on a trip across the Atlantic to rescue a wayward Alexis, she discovers she cannot keep romance at bay, and has an affair with a dashing Englishman, Patrick (Simon MacCorkindale). When Alexis is found, Edwina returns home to marry theatrical producer Sam Horowitz (Chris Sarandon).
At last, Edwina is free from the ghosts of that fateful night on the Titanic.
Romantic, dramatic and very well played out, NO GREATER LOVE is one of the best Danielle Steel movies ever made.

Very touching and entertaining film, August 19, 1999
By A Customer
I've seen this film a couple of times and I really enjoy it. The story is great and easy to follow, as most of Danielle Steel films are. Kelly Rutherford (those who are Melrose Place buffs know that she plays Megan Lewis, Michael's ex)is so great that she really takes care of her brother and sisters when her parents died on that Titanic disaster and sacrifices her life. This story really portrays LOVE, CARING, and UNSELFISNESS towards other people's happiness. This is a must-see film for people of all ages.

A wonderful movie, January 13, 2001
A Kid's Review
I really enjoy this movie, I watch it quite often, as I am a devoted Titanic fan. What I especially enjoy about this movie is the after math of the Tragedy, It shows how Edwina and her siblings cope after such a terrible disaster, and they all finally find the happiness they're so deserving of. I find this movie to be a refreshing change from my other Titanic movies, I view them all very often. One thing I would like to say, is Kelly Rutherford, Looks so much like a Harrison Fisher Lady,She is a very talented actress.If you read the book I believe you will enjoy this movie very much.
