Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review The sparks between Richard Gere and Diane Lane--so memorable in iUnfaithful/i--smolder again in the sweepingly romantic iNights in Rodanthe/i. Based on a novel by Nicholas Sparks, the film is unapologetically sentimental, and enjoyable completely on its own terms, a small gem of an escape, complete with storm-tossed coastline. Lane plays Adrienne, a wronged wife whose husband (Christopher Meloni) was a heel, but begs for another chance. She goes to clear her head at a remote North Carolina inn, where the sole occupant is Paul, a doctor, played by Gere, who is battling his own demons. If the writing is on the wall about what will become of our two leading actors, it's to Lane's and Gere's deep credit that they make their tentative connection, wariness, and growing feelings human and quite believable. Love is messy, and grownup love, even more so. As they get to know each other, Adrienne shows Paul a small wooden box that holds her keepsakes: "I made it to keep special things safe." Paul turns to her, looking her squarely but gently in the eye, and says, "What keeps you safe?" At that moment, every woman watching the film is in the palm of his hand. The film squarely addresses the reality that people over age 25 do, in fact, yearn for, and find, love. If only more studios would realise the deep, appreciative audience for films like this. --iA.T.

Its a story that really makes you think...and we should all make as much of opportunities when they come our way. Beautiful story and a film to watch over and over again. A very enjoyable film April 5, 2009 DEJ (Kuwait) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful I watched this movie on a flight, which is a rarity for me and I was so captivated by the story that it made the trip pass very quickly. It is no great masterpiece but it is very well done and I found it to be a very touching story. It is one of the few films that I would bother to watch again, some time in the future when I have forgotton the details. It is well worth a watch, you will probably really enjoy it.
