"For All Time". . .An absolutely refreshing and entertaining film. Delighted to have this type of fascinating story on the screen in my home. I frequently enjoy watching it again after fortunately having recorded it. It is a prized and valued video. The music, the settings, the intrigue (without any violence, IMAGINE???) Each time I watch it, I realize I have a warm smile feeling from beginning to end. I suppose I sincerely fantasize right into the im???possible plot.
Yes, I agree with some others. This story, or certainly one of it's plot, manner, content, humor and romance (again, without violence)is so very refreshing. It would be exciting for me, anyway, to look forward to similar programming in the near future. Please continue, all those responsible, to make this valuable type of evocative, romantic and almost sublimely comedic entertainment. It is such fun to smile and just plain feel good after watching this Time Travel adventure.

I absolutely loved this movie!! From beginning to end it intrigued me! Mary Mcdonnell, my favorite actress, is stunning as usual! This is a story about finding love and going out of the usual to challenge those who stand in your way. It makes you want to laugh and cry and jump for joy! I just want to watch this movie over and over and over again!! When ever it comes to DVD you can be sure that I will be one of the first to buy it! It ended so abruptly that you were just left craving more and that is what I love about this movie you can leave it up to your own interpretation. Just check it out you will not be sorry.
I just wish it would never end!

It's kind of significant that this movie was made in 2000, as it seemed to be the swan song to the kind of TV movies that were once so prolific and so damn good. Makes me long for time travel!
This movie could be called a combination of the Willoughby episode of "The Twilight Zone" and "The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan", a 1979 TV movie, back when they were at their best.
This time, it's Mark Harmon who, as Charles Lattimer, is a modern-day person with a longing for the past. Commuting by train to St. Louis, he finds himself transported (with some help from an antique watch) back to 1896, and a small town named Sommerville.
Soon, he finds himself falling for Laura Brown (Mary McDonnell), a widowed newspaper editor, and torn between her and Kristen (Catherine Hicks), his wife in the present, who - to quote an old cliche - just doesn't understand him.
As he makes up his mind where he really belongs, time - in both eras - moves along and his actions have consequences. But his heart knows what he truly wants!
If you're a hopeless romantic with a yen for bygone days, this is the movie for you!

An excellent time travel movie which doesn't need tons of special effects and weird sets to have the spectator riveted to his or her seat. I thoroughly enjoyed this one as the sets were very natural, the story totaly logical and the pricipal characters were both beautiful persons. The story is simple and easy to understand - my only question is why on earth can't one find it anywhere in the world on DVD ??

This is just simply a wonderfully done, quiet, well acted time travel tale. The overall plot is based on portions of a classic "Twilight Zone" episode, though this film stretches that earlier TV episode out, and takes it to a slightly different direction. Mark Harmon does a fine job as the time traveller, frustrated with the pace and direction of 21st century American life, and Mary McDonnell gives an excellent, understated, but very moving performance as the 1896 widow with whom he falls in love. Again, if you are at all interested in time travel films, and are not looking for one of those computer generated special-effects fests that seem to be produced so often nowadays, but just a quiet, evocative, time travel tale with interesting characters, see this film. It is terrific, and haunting!
