DESCRIPTION:

One of cinema’s most timeless love stories, David Lean’s Brief Encounter stars Trevor Howard and Celia Johnson as a married doctor and a housewife who meet one gray evening on a London train platform and embark on a tentative, forbidden romance. Lean directs this exquisite adaptation of a Noël Coward play with his customary precision. In this master filmmaker’s hands, the temporary, guilt-ridden affair is as delicate as a flickering candle.
