AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER Returns to the Big Screen for Valentine’s Day

One of the screen’s most memorable romances,  An Affair to Remember, is coming back to the big screen for two days only … just in time for Valentine’s Day.

Named the #5 most romantic movie ever by the American Film Institute, Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr star in the classic tale of love, fate and the Empire State Building (“the nearest thing to heaven!”).  Celebrating its 60th anniversary, An Affair to Remember has captured the hearts of generations of moviegoers and moviemakers — it was the inspiration for the blockbuster hit Sleepless in Seattle.  And it’s the ultimate Valentine’s weekend date for movie lovers.

Showing at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. (local time) each day in more than 700 theaters nationwide, An Affair to Remember combines movie glamour, mid-century style and gorgeous widescreen cinematography like no other film before or since.

The yearlong TCM Big Screen Classics series continues in February with an unforgettable cinematic Valentine – An Affair to Remember, from 20th Century Fox. The tear-jerking romance starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2017 by returning to movie theaters for two days only,  shown in its original aspect ratio.

An influential movie milestone that helped inspire the blockbuster Sleepless in Seattle, An Affair to Remember dazzles both the heart and the eyes with its                         widescreen cinematography, mid-century glamour, and a story of lovers who are destined to be together, despite their circumstances. Turner Classic Movies                         (TCM) host Ben Mankiewicz offers brand-new commentary both before and after the feature, which is a perfect way for movie lovers to celebrate the most                           romantic day of the year.
