If you're a D'Onofrio fan, you'll really want to own this one. It's a story of passion that seems to ever have the one lover out of step with the other. So many opportunities are given in this film for us to whisper, "I wouldn't do that!" But, "they" do and you get to go along for the ride.

You will see little exchanges that are ever so human between the lovers that eventually, you'll be doing something similiar and be reminded of the film. It'll haunt you like that.

There's passion...there's foolishness...there's love and understanding - what's not to like? It's humanity in all it's glory and nonsense! I'd highly recommend this movie as an afternoon get away!

An interesting way to review the careers of Scacchi and D'Onofrio, but otherwise, it's a no go. Long term adultery is not a sympathetic love story. It's hard to empathize with Georges (Scacchi), a woman who doesn't want to be the wife of a fisherman, but wants to bang him annually, for old time's sake. Gavin (D'Onofrio) portrays the traditionally female role of the seduced partner who then feels awfully, awfully bad about betraying the spouse. They are supposed to age from late teens to late middle age, but mostly D'Onofrio grows more and more and more facial hair. One becomes frightened of how he will appear at their next assignation. Of the two, he is nevertheless more convincing in the aging process, and in his final scene the beard is at last under control and practically believable. D'Onofrio looks very fine in his introductory scene, and Scacchi is lovely, but the story is unconvincing, overwrought and overlong.

The beautiful voluptuous Greta Scacci rules in this beautiful sexy,sensuous film.It's a must see!!

It's a wonderfull film, tender, real, romantic. I love it since it's in video!

A touching movie of a love story through time with outstanding performances of the two main characters which is really worth watching and buying. I definitely recommend it to all those who like to watch quality movies.

Very pleased with the service. Ordered the DVD from Australia and has arrived very shortly, beyond expectation.

Best love story I ever seen... Perfect movie.. But only in VHS:(
