'Til There Was You (1997)

Television director-producer Scott Winant (thirtysomething) made his feature debut with this predictable romantic-comedy about two people destined to meet and fall in love--though it takes 20 years for their lives to intersect. A good idea done before, the film doesn't have anything new to offer, and the excessive sweetness of Winant's approach can't mask the lack of originality. Still, it boasts a very attractive cast, and it's fun watching these actors work together. --Tom Keogh Amazon.com

A perfect movie.

'Til There Was You
This is a lovely film. Romantic and quirky, with highly enjoyable performances by Jeanne Tripplehorn, Dylan McDermott and a pre-SATC turn by Sarah Jessica Parker. I live in Los Angeles, CA where the film takes place, and the settings feel oh, so familiar.
There are some elements that recall other favorites of mine: Frequency and Sliding Doors. For a while, 'Til There Was You was so rarely on television that finally, I purchased it. September 6, 2008

Yummy

'Til There Was You
Before I accuse the other reviewers as being jealous , having never accepted their coincidences as serendipitous, I will admit that 'Til There Was You" is as cute-zee as "The Truth About Cats and Dogs" a completely different story line, but nonetheless like this movie, fluff that is as fun to watch -as cotton candy is good to eat. This is what being a movie buff is all about, you can't dine on the deep and the serious all day. Do we stare into the sun without shifting our eyes to the clouds now and then? August 19, 2008

Highly Enjoyable Romantic Comedy

I am a little surprised at the one star ratings. I love movies that complete a circle, those are rare and this is one of those. This was a really good movie. If you like something a little different from the typical romantic comedy, this is a good choice. It has doses of reality in it and maybe that is what some folks did not like. I fell in love with this movie the first time I saw it. The main characters flaws give you more to identify with than some other romantic comedies. In particular, the soundtrack is perfection. Sometimes I just leave the credits on repeat to listen to the music. It is highly enjoyable. May 8, 2007

I am a hopeless romantic....

And I absolutely LOVE this film. I feel bad for those who can't see the romance and all of the wonderful moments. June 19, 2006
