Product Description

From Amazon.com

Truly Madly Deeply is an intelligent, moving, and deeply funny story about love and death. Nina (Juliet Stevenson), a scatterbrained professional translator, has lost the love of her life, Jamie (Die Hard's Alan Rickman). As her life (and her flat) slowly falls to pieces, she's inundated by an endless stream of repair men and eligible suitors. But rather than go on with life, Nina dwells on her dead love, slumped at her piano, endlessly playing half of a Bach duet. Then, in a truly magical sequence, his cello suddenly joins her melody ... and Jamie's back from the dead.

At first it's bliss. (Think of the superficially similar blockbuster Ghost--only with real people instead of pretty faces Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.) But Nina gradually realizes it's a thoroughly real Jamie who's back, complete with every annoying, argumentative fault she'd conveniently forgotten. (He might be dead, he explains, but he still attends political meetings.) Moreover, he has to hide whenever any of the living are around. And he's constantly ice-cold. And he invites his dead pals to her place at all hours. What's a living woman to do?

Director Anthony Minghella went on to create the melodramatic period piece The English Patient--but in this film, he shows a far more sensitive, subtle touch. The photography is brilliant, capturing the simple beauties of suburban London. And the wonderfully acted characters, quirky and all too real, will keep you laughing--and always guessing what will happen next. --Grant Balfour

5.0 out of 5 stars Understated, intelligent, and thoughtful movie, Mar 13 2004

This review is from: Truly Madly Deeply (VHS Tape)
The Brits really have something over the Americans when it comes to subjects like this. Compare this movie with Ghost and you'll know what I'm talking about. It's nice to see something done with intelligence for a change--especially in the "romance" genre.

It is refreshing to see actors who resemble REAL people, not some pre-fabricated, air-brushed, version of humanity that Hollywood *thinks* we want.

Alan Rickman and Juliet Stevenson are terrific as usual, as is the entire cast.

TMD made me sob in the theatre more than a decade ago. It was well worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars a thinking person's "ghost" or "kiss me good-bye", Feb 11 2004
This review is from: Truly,Madly,Deeply (DVD)
long before anthony minghella made the english patient or the recent cold mountain, he blessed up with a little known but wonderful little gem called truly, madly, deeply. here you have a very touching, subtle film with romantic undertones & dialogue which ranks with some fo the best woody allen comedy/dramas we've seen such as "alice" or "hannah & her sisters". truly, madly , deply has often been referred to as the thinking person's "ghost" or "kiss me good-bye" although i'd say that's an understatement. it's hard to believe it's been over 12 years since i initially watched this & it still holds up mighty well. juliet stevenson plays a sweet, lonely widow who literally stays depressed after the loss of her husband & can't bring herself to move on with her own life or to possibly fall in love again. sensing her loneliness & sadness from the other side, her husband(played flawlessly by the ever great alan rickman) returns & even brings a few of his friends back with him. from this point on, the film takes a softer & more light-hearted view. who would've though ghosts from the other side would so darn cold though? throughout the course of the film, nina finds gentleman friend & falls in love. will she chose to live with her husband's ghost & his friends or will she choose the teacher? find out for yourself with this irresistible heartwarming, witty film today. if you are interested, then why are you still reading? go get the movie !!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly, Madlyk, Deeply, Nov 14 2003
This review is from: Truly,Madly,Deeply (DVD)
One of the finest films about grieving and death I have ever seen. Humorous as well as infinitely touching, this film examines the depths to which we can fall in not letting go of one we love. Alan Rickman, Juliet Stevenson and Michael Maloney all give absolutely riviting, beautiful performances. Alan Rickman, one of the finest actors of our generation, again proves himself master at subtle comic delivery and timing, as well as breaking our hearts. Juliet Stevenson gives a magnificent performance as a woman who cannot let go, and gets that second chance she has dreamed of; she reaches to places few actors dare to go. Michael Maloney is charming and moving as the man who dares to love Juliet despite herself. In the best of British tradition, this film moves slowly and quietly, creating characters we come to love, encompassing both pain and humor as it illustrates the need for each of us to accept and move on. Beautiful. You will not be disappointed. (PS: The cello scene is one of the most moving ever captured on film...you will know it when you see it!>)
