help An Affair to Remember FAQ
Why do Nickie and Terry plan to meet at the Empire State Building?
After falling in love aboard an ocean liner, they agree to spend six months ending their existing relationships and building independent lives. The observation deck becomes the test of whether both are ready to choose a future together.
Why does Terry miss the rendezvous in An Affair to Remember?
Terry is struck by a car while rushing toward the Empire State Building and is left unable to walk. Nickie never learns this at the time, so he believes she deliberately abandoned their agreement.
Is An Affair to Remember itself a remake?
Yes. Director Leo McCarey remade his own 1939 film Love Affair with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr in the leading roles; another Love Affair followed in 1994 with Warren Beatty and Annette Bening.
What connection does An Affair to Remember have to Sleepless in Seattle?
Nora Ephron's Sleepless in Seattle repeatedly references the 1957 film and builds its climax around an Empire State Building meeting. The older movie is therefore part of both the plot and the emotional language used by Ephron's characters.
