Stars Shirley MacLaine and Christopher Plummer. It's set in 1943 and 1993 and the story goes back and forth, keeping you glued to you chair trying to figure out why MacLaine, who during the war years was madly in love with a young bomber pilot, yet is indifferent at the funeral of her husband in 1993. What happened to MacLaine ? Well it involves a ring lost in a plane crash in Ireland, and moreso it involves the promise she made to her pilot lover/husband, and the toll that promise takes on her life. To tell you any more would spoil one helluva well crafted story that , while throwing red herrings at you, takes you by the hand and leads you to a tension-filled and satisfying conclusion. It's beautifully directed by Richard Attenborough and wonderfully acted by MacLaine, Plummer and the entire cast. A big :T
Chris, if you get around to reading this, I'm sure you would find certian elements of this film quite appealing.
