Product Description

If the title It Happened One Night hadn't already been taken for Frank Capra's romantic comedy classic, it would've worked just as well for this holiday charmer. Catherine (Julie Andrews) is a widowed pediatric physician (with no children of her own) and Robert (James Garner) is a contractor with a wife suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Due to an accident of fate (a winter storm), they end up spending Thanksgiving together in an abandoned cabin, away from their family and friends. The two initially wary strangers soon find they have more in common than either could have anticipated. The subplot concerning Robert's adult daughters is fairly extraneous (and predictable) but doesn't distract from the tender relationship at the heart of this made-for-TV movie. Andrews and Garner have worked together before, in The Americanization of Emily and Victor/Victoria, and it shows in the chemistry generated by their sympathetic, believable performances. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

I am a fan of Julie Andrews. This movie was light and fluffy. It warmed the heart and made for a few chuckles as well, so curl up quietly on the couch with a hot chocolate and enjoy!

It's a special night with One Special Night...,

Ce commentaire est de: One Special Night (DVD)
Julie Andrews and James Gardner are at their very best in this charming holiday tale of two lonely people finding their way to each other after the loss of their respective spouses to Alzheimer's and heart disease. Julie plays a fiesty surgeon who values her independence. James plays a construction foreman with a few old-fashioned notions about what women can/can't do, and the clash is inevitable! It's hilarious, sweet, and funny all at the same time. You'll LOVE watching this video and will surely want to add it to your personal collection. It's a classic for Julie Andrews fans!

The Best!,
By A Customer
This is one of my absolute favorite Christmas movies! It would be hard to make it any better. Julie Andrews is fantastic as Catherine Howard, a pediatric cardiologist. James Garner shines in his role, as well. This movie is so sentimental. It's a great movie for entire families to watch between Thanksgiving and Christmas. The movie actually starts at Thanksgiving... There are only a few profanities in this movie. Other than that it's great for everyone. Watch this movie this Christmas! You won't be a bit sorry.
