jendeegan This is one of my favourite films and I would love to see it out on DVD. It gives real insight into the lives of two middle aged people, one a priest and one a school teacher. It is subtle and well thought out and I love to watch it.I especially love how the feelings of the two main characters are demonstrated without using words, just by the perfect timing of mannerisms and movements. The film gives a sympathetic view of the relationship between the USA and Ireland, and also of the Catholic church; which though not a fashionable topic, is very interesting for an outsider. The plot also discusses the true meaning of long term relationships versus formal marriage, and stops short of finishing with a straightforward value judgement, which would sell the question short in my opinion. This story would appeal to Henry James fans I think.

argonauta97 I have been trying to find a copy of The Love She Sought and have been unsuccessful. Can anyone help and let me know where I can get a copy? This movie has touched me and has stayed with me since I first saw it on TV and I would definitely like to see it again. I can remember that this movie was a topic of a lot of conversation for some time with my friends and I. It was so touching how she portrayed that her impression of her friend turned out not to be what she had thought for all that time. Angela Lansbury is such a versatile actress and I think that this is the best TV movie with her in it that I have ever seen. I have watched others, but not have left me with such a long lasting good impression. I would also like to know if any of her other movies are similar to this one because I would also like to watch it. THANK YOU!!!

jvmcgovern If you love "the Irish" and know that love happens...and not just to the young...this may be what you are looking for. It is a sweet story about a relationship that grows over years.You might be able to predict the ending but you will want to watch it again. Angelia is excellent ...supporting cast could be stronger.If you liked "Shadowland" or "Simply Sarah" you will enjoy this! A story that a woman who has given much and served others can find something some happiness for herself.This might be in the category of a "chick flick" for mature women, but my spouse enjoyed it too! In comparison with more recent love stories it is far more subdued but a touching sweet story...wish we had more of them!

bettiem It would have to be a really bad show for these two stars (Angela and Denholm not to shine. I'm glad they worked together before Denholm died. Combining a woman's yearning a man's frustration, a great Bishop Robert Prosky) and the Catholic church with wry humor and even a pregnant cat makes for a wonderful story.
