Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.
In this irresistible, inexpensive, pink episode, we’re clutching our cigarette cases and climbing aboard the ocean liner with 1957’s An Affair to Remember. Directed by Leo McCarey and written by him along with Delmer Daves and Donald Ogden Stewart, this was a remake of McCarey’s 1939 movie Love Affair. The tale was revived yet again in 1994 by director Glenn Gordon Caron when Warren Beatty and Annette Bening took the lead roles. But tonight we’ll be focusing on what happened when Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr were put centre stage as Nickie and Terry, creating the ultimate fizzy cocktail and leading audience members through the years to surreptitiously wipe a few tears on the sleeves of their polyester cardis. What is it about this mix of adultery and PR for the Empire State Building that makes us dewy-eyed? Let’s find out. I promise not to sing.
If you enjoy this episode, please consider leaving us a rating or a review on your podcast app of choice, as it re ally helps us spread the word. The pink champagne’s on us.
