Amazon.com If the title It Happened One Night hadn't already been taken for Frank Capra's romantic comedy classic, it would've worked just as well for this holiday charmer. Catherine (Julie Andrews) is a widowed pediatric physician (with no children of her own) and Robert (James Garner) is a contractor with a wife suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Due to an accident of fate (a winter storm), they end up spending Thanksgiving together in an abandoned cabin, away from their family and friends. The two initially wary strangers soon find they have more in common than either could have anticipated. The subplot concerning Robert's adult daughters is fairly extraneous (and predictable) but doesn't distract from the tender relationship at the heart of this made-for-TV movie. Andrews and Garner have worked together before, in The Americanization of Emily and Victor/Victoria, and it shows in the chemistry generated by their sympathetic, believable performances. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Very good romance but not that special June 15, 2008 Joseph M. Seda 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Enjoyable because of Julie Andrew and James Garner two of my favorites. I liked it, but it was disappointing compared to "It Happened One Night" which I do admit was more comedic in emphasis. I do not think the script was up to the romantic potential of these two stars.
chade May 5, 2008 cindi (North Carolina) This is a great movie! Julie Andrews is her charming self and James Garner is as handsome as ever!
RV Driver February 8, 2008 V. Newton (Cleveland, TN, USA) This was great the first time years ago on Hallmark and was even better the second time. Great love story
Great Christmas DVD February 8, 2008 P. Ahal (Menomonee Falls, WI) I've watched "One Special Night" whenever it is shown on TV, which is usually once a year. Very heartwarming, so I decided to buy it so I can enjoy any time. Great Christmas romance DVD.
One Special Night January 26, 2008 swimergirl 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
One Special Night This is a wonderful movie about two people who learn to love again. Katherine Howard is a pediatric cardiologist who lost her husband to cancer a year ago. She is headstrong and wants to do everything herself. Robert Woodward is a father and grandfather who's wife has altzhiemers. He is stubborn and believes women need to be taken care of because they can't do things themselves. The two meet Thanksgiving night at the hospice facility where his wife now lives and where her husband used to. Because of a big storm Robert is unable to get a cab so Katherine offers him a ride home. On the way her car hits a patch of ice and goes off the road. Stranded they manage to find an empty cabin where they find shelter for the night. Throughout the long snowy night the two get to know each other and find that they have more in common than they thought.The movie shows that first impressions aren't always what they seem.
