- I think the movie you're referring to is: "Somewhere In Time." I,
- too, thought it was pretty good.
-
- There's another few that came to mind: "The Thorn Birds" - very sad and
- VERY romantic (the story of a young girl who falls in love with a
- priest (played by Richard Chamberlain) and knows that someday, she
- will marry him...the movie follows them to the death of one of them).
-
- The other I thought of right away was: "The Promise" - also very sad and
- romantic (story of young couple who falls in love even though her mother
- doesn't approve of their relationship. they're involved in an
- accident, and the mother goes about planting seeds of doubt in the minds
- of both the young lovers, effectively tearing them apart. rent it and
- see what happens then).
