"Love among The Ruins" (1975) (Great Romantic Comedy) December 4, 2008
I just received my VHS the other day, it was purchased here on Amazon.com. I was unbelievably satisfied, it's the best movie I've seen in a long time. First of all the cast is brilliant Katharine Hepburn and Sir Laurence Olivier, can you get any better? If you are a fan of classic movies you must see this!

I LOVE this movie ! It's high time it was made into a DVD! This one is actually worth the time.
The best ever August 5, 2007
I saw this film the first time as a teenager and never forgot it. I tried to track it down over the years and have finally found it. It only took 30 years. It is a classic that never had it's due recognition. Great acting with great humor.
Rare perfection February 26, 2007

This is one of those all-too-rare films where nothing can be bettered, and certainly not imitated. Anyone who thinks that it should be remade is guilty of the worst sort of film heresy.
Olivier and Hepburn are at the top of their form as one-time lovers who reunite so that Arthur Granville-Jones (Olivier), England's most famous barrister, can defend Jessica Medlicott (Hepburn), a rich widow, against a breach of promise suit. Olivier is astounding as a man who has been in love with one woman for more than forty years. Hepburn is sparkling as a recently-widowed former actress who suddenly finds herself attracted to her barrister; she has forgotten their one-time affair entirely.
The year is 1911, with rich, elaborate costumes and surroundings. The dialogue is among the best ever written for a film. And the music is incomparable. I join the others who ask, "Why isn't this on DVD?" It's one that you can't forget.
Time for release on DVD January 3, 2007
I still remember this wonderful film after watching the broadcast premier many years ago. It's time for it to be released on DVD, where it will be preserved for posterity and enjoyed for years to come. I would also love to see a remake for the big screen, with Streisand and Redford in the lead roles.
