Amazing adaption to the famous Daphne du Maurier novel. Probably the best. Everyone was cast perfectly. A great romantic thriller anyone would enjoy!

"Like so many films on this list, it straddles genres—thriller, romantic comedy, adventure movie—leaving you blissfully wiped out by the end. A great script, beautifully realized."

"The best Hitchcock film Hitchcock never made. Stanley Donen’s pitch-perfect romantic thriller is a movie I can watch over and over again. Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn at their peak, with Parisian locations."

Movie Favorite

"In black and white, made in 1940 by Sir Carol Reed, who of course also did The Third Man, Odd Man Out, Oliver!, etc. Night Train to Munich is a witty and quite gripping thriller. Intricate and romantic with very amusing performances."

Would make a much better thriller. She should have thrown him off the empire state building.

This is the second book in this series by this author. This is a romantic thriller read, which will keep you hooked till the last page. This story is full of angst, mystery and love. Amazing characters, which you just like from the first page. I can't wait to read more from this amazing author in the future.



Highly recommended

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book
  
The Thomas Crown Affair (1999)
The Thomas Crown Affair (1999)
1999 | Action, Drama, Mystery
Romantic thriller remake. A daring robbery from a New York museum leads the police and an insurance investigator to suspect insanely wealthy and clever tycoon Thomas Crown, but can the investigator keep her mind on the job when the sparks start a-fizzing between her and the suspect?

The world is made up of people who prefer the Steve McQueen version and those who like this one (and I suppose there are conceivably a few folk who've seen neither): I am in the Brosnan camp, although this film does kind of miss the point that Crown only steals for the fun of it in the original (Brosnan's character clearly appreciates art). Much more of a romantic drama than an actual thriller, but well played and engaging, and the set pieces, when they eventually come, are clever and well-staged. As a chance for Brosnan (then at the apogee of his Bond success) to show his range, it's a qualified success (Crown is another suave, high-living thrill seeker with possible commitment issues), but as a piece of entertainment it does the job.
