This movie will strike a chord with those of you who have loved someone, who for whatever reason, could not be with you at some time in your life.  The story line is about a British student, in the United States on a student visa, who falls in love with an American classmate.  I am not going to tell you anything more, because it is a common story.  However, the way this film shows us this tale is fresh. Through the young couples’ various emotional states, during different periods of their lives, we watch their relationship rise and fall.  I really enjoyed this movie and had a tear in my eye, while watching the struggles, the despair and the  accelerated excitement when they looked into each other’s eyes after a long absence.  Excellent acting by all.  The softness and progression of this film will recall a fond memory or two for some of you, I believe.
