Review of Brief Encounter (1945) by Patrick B — 06 Jan 2008
A wonderful British romance film of the 1940's. A timeless masterpiece with characters so real you sometimes forget they are acting. I'm not usually one for romance films but Brief Encounter is so incredibly poignant and well written.
Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard are perfectly cast and give unforgettable performances. The train station and sound effects create a haunting atmosphere and have probably changed the way I look at train stations.
It's a simple, honest story of love and longing, I could never tire of it.
