Finally found a copy of this after seeing it in a list of best time-travel films and watched it with Perrin. Loved it!
It starts quite slowly before the time-travel element is fully revealed (after a couple of earthly hints). When it does it's very nicely revealed and immediately caused me a bit of head-scratching. I had to pause it a couple of times to get my head around the different directions of travel so it took a while for me to get comfortable with him travelling into her part and her travelling into his. Once I did though it was beautiful.
The last gut-wrenchjng scene when she leaves on the train after seeing him for the last time after he meets her for the first time is really very moving.
I said to Perrin that I can't believe this hasn't been snaffled up and remade by Hollywood- it's surly just a matter of time.
Great film with a lovely story and a terrific time-travel slant.
87/100.
