I caught this movie (as This Time Forever) in a hotel room. It was late and I couldn't sleep. Due to the hour, I didn't expect much. Boy, was I wrong! This flick caught my attention and held it from start to finish. Love stories are normally not my thing but this one was different. There is nothing special about the movie. The interaction of the characters seemed to touch the right buttons for me. If you get the chance, watch it. Its worth the rental fee.

I saw this film in the summer of '82 on HBO but it was called This Time Forever. I had never heard of it but since I am a fan of Eddie Albert and Cloris Leachman, I decided to give it a try. It turned out to be one of the best films I had ever seen. It is not a sordid film about a teenager trying to lose his virginity and nor is it a sappy love story about two young people falling in love against their parents' wishes. It is about a young man trying to choose where his real loyalties lie; his duty to serve his country or remain with the lady he loves. The problem is that it is very hard to find today and it is almost never shown anymore. If anyone gets the chance to see it, I highly recommend it. You may be just as surprised as I am.

I'm so sorry I can't find this movie anywhere! I watched it 23 times in the cinemas in 80's and then impossible to find it on Audio Video or DVD or in net.But this movie is amazing!!! Is that possible some one in this world to make it available again??!!!!! I want very much to have it in my own movie's collection. The story in this movie is nice not only because of this strong love. They should make more such movies!!! If someone read this and could give me advice how to find this movie for watching it would be great! I will appreciate any information and any way to have this movie! And I'm sure also one day, when my kids can see it they will love it with sure , so this would be nice present for them from me to save it. Thanks! Dani

I have been showing this film to high school students taking a film class for years. They love it because it has comedy and drama. The ending surprises them all. Great teaching tool to explain the French Speaking vs. English Speaking Canadians; the Vietnam War. I always have good discussions about the characters' problems and the choices that they made to solve these problems. Most of my students didn't even know that Quebec is a French speaking province; had no knowledge of "being drafted" or "draft dodging". Good film all around.Great theme song, also!!! We all love Claire Pimpare the lead actress!!!

I love this movie. I discovered it many years ago and was lucky enough to find it on an on line auction. It is a "chick flick" and leaves me crying everytime. WHen she says "Matthew" with her French accent me and my friends just want to scream into the television. I recommend it to anyone -- if you can find it.
