An Affair to Remember

This is an example of classic Hollywood cinema and romance. It was even alluded to in the many-played movie Sleepless in Seattle on Lifetime. Starring Cary Grant and Deborah Karr the story follows two people who fall in love on a cruise from Europe to the United States. Each of the couple is engaged to someone else. They agree to meet at the top of the Empire State Building, leading to the most memorable scene as Cary Grant's character Nicky Ferranti waits for Terry McKay, who was busy getting run over by a bus. The film culminates as the two find each other, find out the truth, and continue their relationship:classic Hollywood ending, only interrupted by Terry's accident and a brief stint as a teacher for under-privileged children.
