Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Love Story.
What an anmazing film, wonderfully scripted, and, beautifully acted. Some day, American (and British) Society/ies shall, start to..... evolve. No doubt, "The Affair", shall 'prompt' a different 'avenue of thought', leading skeptics, towards, having to, now; seriously consider, completely abandoning racism and bigotry. I hope that the story of "the Affair" has begun to 'embarrass them into submission.' I rate this motion picture along the same stratospheric levels of 'spiritual enlightenment' as "the ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Finally available on DVD!
This is an EXCELLENT movie! I have kept my taped VHS copy from when it aired on HBO and hoped they would do a DVD release. Could not believe it when I saw it at Walmart...yep, I snatched it quick. Believe me this is a must have kind of movie! Harry Belafonte is executive producer. Great acting and subject matter.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "The Affair from the inside"

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Race, War and Love
In "The Affair" Courtney Vance gives a strong performance as a Black G. I. stationed in England during W. W. II who meets and falls in love with a married Englishwoman. It is a compelling story because it dramatizes how dangerous love, whether extra-marital or not, could be between a Black man and a White Woman. It should be recalled that during W. W. II black and white soldiers in the U. S. still served in separate divisions. Racism, though somewhat less pronounced, still was rampant within the U. S. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I saw this a couple years ago and it's one of my favorites..
The affair between the English wife and the American soldier was probably one of the best, and saddest, stories I've watched in a long time. The wife must choose between keeping her affair a secret and condemning the man she's fallen in love with or risk losing her son. It's a hard choice, glad I don't have to make it.
