Best movie of this year hands down!

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing (1955) is a Drama/Biography/Romance/War feature about an American correspondent named Mark Elliot, played by William Holden, and a half-Chinese half-English doctor named Dr. Han Suyin, played by Jennifer Jones, who fall in love in Hong Kong during China's communist revolution.It is a sweet romance and the main actors have excellent chemistry together, making their relationship believable. Since their relationship was the focus of the movie, this leads to a feeling of authenticity of the film. I really enjoyed the ending of the movie as it made me feel incredibly emotional. The music at the end really added to the feel and atmosphere of the ending and tied the entire movie together. I would recommend this film for anyone who loves Romantic war movies or old movies in general.

I don't know what I was thinking except that it was on PBS, but immediately I was turned off by the whole thing. This is a filmed adaptation of a true autobiographical story by Eurasian/Chinese Dr. Han Suyin who had a Chinese Father and a Flemish mother. It was filmed in 'cinemascope' and so appeared truncated and badly shrunk on the Television. Jennifer Jones never made for a convincing Eurasian/Chinese woman. Not for a minute. As a romance movie, it simply never gelled for me in the way that "Affair to Remember" gelled, or "The World of Susie Wong" gelled. The scenery from Hong Kong was beautiful and made one wonder, what of that remains some sixty years later? It's not the worst movie I've ever seen, but it comes close. I seem to recall the song from the 1950s and thought it was too saccharin then when I was 10 and still think it is too saccharin. Well, you might like this, but I certainly didn't.

After patiently sitting through this 1955, star-vehicle, meant solely to showcase the likes of Jennifer Jones and William Holden, I'm now convinced that love is a many-demented thing. It really is. As on-screen lovers, I found Jones and Holden had as much chemistry going between them as do two, cross-eyed slugs meeting for the first time.I think - The only audience that this trite, mixed-race tale of semi-forbidden romance could ever appeal to would be those who (within watching the first 10 minutes of this film) still cannot figure out where this one's story is inevitably heading. (Yes. This picture's story was really that predictable) This film also lost itself some significant points because director Henry King did not see the importance (as I do) of taking lots of close-ups of the actors' faces as they deliver their dialogue, pretending to emote real feelings of passion, anger, sorrow, etc., etc. King held the camera back so far that I couldn't tell, a good part of the time, what the real expression was on these people's faces.*Note* - Be prepared to end up hating (like I did) this film's title song "Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing" by the time the story is over, due to repeated strains of this popular tune being constantly recycled throughout the entire course of its 102-minute running time.

Star enhanced boiler plate love tragedy 1 extra star for location (Hong Kong-1955)The music is too overpowering like in Spanish telenovelas or silent pictures---the theme was still playing in my head a week later.However the music at least took some talent and effort to write, I cannot confer equal compliments on the screen play--Not because it was bad there just wasn't any thing to it. Middle aged news correspondent Holden (38) meets middle aged (Eurasian eeek!!!) woman doctor Jones 37. They take in a few touristic sites together and over the period of ? a week apparently fall deeply in love (there is no development of this). But he is called to Korea (takes place 1949) and is blown up by a bomb!There is a subplot of racism--Jones loses her job because of her hanky panky with Holden--- a PC element it needed for Oscar nomination. Oscars generally require 3 things = good old boy's doing PC gimmicks--in various quantities of each. This one had all 3 Holden aging star---Racism---Filmed in Hong Kong for an added gimmick Jones is a Eurasian with tons of eye makeup.It barely deserves a 5 ... the site shooting is all that kept it clinging and and the song isn't bad just too much with O story.DO NOT RECOMMEND... unless your only alternative is a Jacquiline Suzanne novel.
