Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Maddyclassicfilms Sweet November is directed by Robert Ellis Miller, written by Herman Raucher and stars Sandy Dennis,Anthony Newley and Theodore Bikel.Sara Deever(Sandy Dennis)is a kooky, kind hearted woman who takes a different lover each month on the condition that the man will leave her once the month is over, no exceptions. Her lover in November is Charlie Blake(Anthony Newley)the month starts out as usual for her but soon both realise they are falling in love with each other.Sara keeps pushing him away and Charlie becomes desperate to find out why. When he learns the truth it about breaks his heart and he's even more desperate than before to get her to make an exception and let him stay longer than a month.Sandy Dennis gives the best performance of her career after Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf and captures the vulnerable and kooky aspects of Sara perfectly. Anthony Newly gives a fine performance as Charlie and it's a shame he didn't become a much bigger star after this or do more romance films, he was very talented and very handsome too.Sweet November is a beautiful love story it's funny, poignant and romantic. Well worth a watch.

pylary-1 I saw this film as a very young adult when it first came out. I have never forgotten it. Sandy Dennis was a fabulous character actress who appeared in several movies containing socially provocative subject matters not previously well-explored in "polite circles"; in other words, in general release. For sure, there were other films addressing titillating lifestyle choices, but the overriding end-message was that if you stray from the accepted societal path, bad things will happen to you (Butterfield 8, Suddenly Last Summer, come to mind.)For those of us growing up in the '60s, society began changing in profound ways that afforded opportunities for self-expression and self- determination previously smothered in veneers of inhibition. Today,there is no societal inhibition...there is literally no subject matter that hasn't been addressed in graphic and/or grotesque detail. I believe a certain handful of films in the relationship genre will have real staying power (Brokeback Mountain). Other films may only be historically significant to individuals uniquely affected by that film, or to film buffs and other super-serious film students/teachers.Rarely does a remake of the original film meet or exceed the goal set by the original, perhaps because the times have just changed too markedly. That was certainly the case here. For me, the Charlize Theron reprise of Sandy Dennis's original role was almost unwatchable, and I like Charlize Theron. I just didn't much care about her, how she lived, or what fate befell her in the remake. Society had moved on.Now, the Hilary Swank characters in Boys Don't Cry and Million Dollar Baby...there were young woman you could care about, as much as I cared about Sandy Dennis's character back in the day. Predictably, however, when those characters eschewed inhibition and embraced self-expression and determination, bad things happened. In our collective societal consciences, then, have we really moved on all that far?

Msaunders52 When Anthony Newley passed away in 1999 I was disappointed,to say the least,at the lack of television tributes that would normally accompany such an event.A brief note at the end of Eastenders was the best that the BBC could muster.The one exception,somewhat suprisingly,came from the fledgling Channel 5 and took the form of a showing of the film Sweet November.I must confess that at the time I had not heard of this film and it was only by chance that I happened to be over at My brother,s house at the moment of its broadcast.For the following two hours I sat mesmerised by a film that represents for me,the very best work that Newley ever did within the medium of film.The opening minutes of the film offer little indication of the true nature of what is to follow,as an unfashionably clad,and strangely uptight Anthony Newley has a chance encounter with a free spirited young lady,who epitomises all that the rigidly conventional Mr Newley would appear to despise.These opening scenes are possibly the most demanding on the viewer,as representing conventional characters came about as easily to Anthony Newley as it does now to Jack Nicholson,or Dennis Hopper.As the storyline unfolds however,the viewer is taken on board a magical rollercoaster of alternating pain and whimsy as the process of liberation,initiated by the promise of a transient love,brings both spiritual regeneration and inconsolable loss to Anthony Newley,s urban changeling.A storyline ,that would in less capable hands than the superlative ensemble cast and director,might descend into empty schmaltz,is carried to an unforgettable finale.I urge all those with a suitably open mind to take the opportunity to share in this neglected masterpiece.

tontine I cannot remember much of the details, I just remember how I felt and the indelible impression it made on me when I was in college. If ever a true romantic sappy movie ever made for a sappy romantic like me this is it. Somewhere in Time was also pretty good, but like aged wine the finest Bordeaux next to the best California wine. I haven't seen it since and I have been looking for it. I would love to see it again.
