Falling in Love - 1984 ***

 
Not a bad film really. Quite a sweet attempt by De Niro and Streep, but it really cannot compare to 'Bridges of Madison County' which can make me weep and weep uncontrollably.
Molly and Frank are two married commuters on the same train everyday, but they have never really had anything to do with each other. Neither is fulfilled in their relationship, and both feel lost and unappreciated. That is until they bump into each other whilst out Christmas shopping and realise they have more in common than they first realised. The two actors don't make a particularly good couple, and I wouldn't rate the chemistry highly in the slightest, but it's a fluffy rom-com that leaves you with a bit of a warm glow afterwards and it's not a bad film overall.
