A Moment to Remember (2004)
A poignant romance that transcends the fragility of circumstance.
Presentation:
This film captures the beauty of Korea and is such a shame how unknown this film is. Released around the same time as The Notebook, I believe this film is a better true romance.
Story:
I think this film is a bit more universal than My Sassy Girl, though it will probably speak to men a little bit more. A think most men can emphasize with the cold defensive lead and you'll undoubtedly adore the dedication of the female counterpart. This is probably the best romance film I’ve seen, despite being Korean, I think the feelings are universal here. There is of course trials and tribulations, humor and social commentary, though some of the social hierarchy may be lost upon non-asian audiences. It's a gut wrenching film, and definitely a tear jerker.
Conclusion:
A better romance than My Sassy Girl, this is a top 3 moving romance. This one is truly gut wrenching but may make you believe that love can surmount all odds.
