Featured review
Good performance by Davies elevates this one
In contemporary Ireland, Sir Fergus Cassidy is in love with Aileen Barrett, although he is considerably older than she. Aileen enjoys reading the poetry of Bulmer Meade, and when the young author comes to her village, she falls for him. But Aileen soon discovers that Meade is a womanizer. Will she stay with him, or return Cassidy's affections?
This is a fairly routine romance, with a predictable ending. But unlike "Enchantment," at least this film is more entertaining. Davies is quite good, especially in the scene where she realizes she has been strung along.
Standing is acceptable as the older lover, but I found Miller to be a bit bland as the poet. The opening credits only list Davies, and she is also referred to in one of the title cards. Oddly, neither Standing nor Miller are acknowledged in any of the title cards.
The film's title comes from a ceremony performed at the wedding, in which the bride goes around to each of the men and asks "Are you the one I love the most?" in which case only the groom (hopefully) answers "yes." There is a flashback to 800 years ago, showing Davies (as Enid of Cashell) in an arranged marriage to a nobleman, then rejecting him after the ceremony, and taking off with her lover.
This sets up the climax of the film, although just about anyone should figure out how the movie will end. There is some pleasant scenery, and overall, the film moves at a decent pace. It's not a movie I would necessarily watch again, but it's not a bad way to kill 70 minutes.
