LoveAffair (1939) :
Brief Review -
An ordinary love turns into an affair to beat all the crisis.. Love Affair is a story of endless love to beat all the physical and mental challenges one can face in the normal life to make it problematic. A playboy and a night singer meet on a ship and generate quite an honest romance despite the fact that both of them have loveless commitment to somebody else. They decide to meet after 6 months to make this relationship licenced until an accidental crisis ruin thier dream romance. We all know this story because the same story have been remade again and again in Hollywood and in Indian cinema as well. The main credit of all those loveable films should go to Love Affair (1939) because it all started here and if you're remaking the same story after serveral decades then i don't need to tell you about it's goodwill. Irene Dunne as Terry is charming and i loved the way her character is written and portrayed. Charles Boyer was quite a disappointing Playboy but very satisfying as real lover. I didn't really find anything as Playboy in him, he was quite a man any lady can fall for. Irene and Charles make a sweet pair with thier chemistry. Leo McCarey gets all the tricks don in short runtime leaving no chances to find any loo breaks in this affair. I wish it would have been more tear-jerking for me if i look at it as a neutral guy rather than a lover boy. Overall, Love Affair is a film to watch for all couples who really love each other. This is a small story dedicated to all Love-birds. I can't understand why Leo McCarey remade his own film to make comparisons take place while he could have easily enjoyed acclaim over this First attempt forever.
RATING - 7/10*
