Plot:
Was recommended to me right about when i found out about Dogma and really wanna see it. (Has the bonus of having Alan Rickman so cant complain)
An emotional and tender film involving Juliet Stevenson being visited by the ghost of her boyfriend (Alan Rickman). Stevenson gives a heartbreaking performance, while Rickman injects some much needed comedy moments. A simple film that offers great performances and an involving story about moving on from heartbreak.
A superbly crafted film about love and loss that really does get everything right without becoming sentimental. Some great performances throughout but Stevenson as the heroine steals the show - i don't think i've ever seen such a believable portrayal of grief ever.
Sad, witty but wise, 'Truly. Madly, Deeply' is a must see and one of the best love stories on film of the last 20 years or so.
OK, watched this twice, really wanted to like it due to Mr. Minghella, but I just don't get it. Had real potential in places - Juliet Stevenson's breakdown in her therapist's office was impressive - but other scenes were completely offputting.
A beautiful movie on so many levles. Philosophically and morally it answers questions about love and understanding and life and death in a definitive way. Rickman is almost perfect in his role, and one sympathizes with everyone here. there are no winners but everyone deserves compassion
One of the few "Romantic Comedies" that I actually like. It really is rather dark as "romantic comedies" go (perhaps that's why I like it?) but also very sweet and moving.
I have to admit I really liked this movie. Alan is such a sexy dead dude. *sigh* Alan playing the cello turned me on... is that wrong?
My ex boyfriend's mother made me watch this with her. It has Alan Rickman playing a woman's dead husband. He moves a whole load of ghosts into her house basically...
OK, I like "Ghost" better. Nevertheless this is really an excellent movie. Part of the message: maybe that no two people can be "everything" for each other, and we set up ourself and our "other" for trouble if we expect every moment to be perfect. There is no "happily ever after". Just see it. OK?
Funny,sad, and a very interesting story as well. One of Alan Rickman's best movies. The character development is very in-depth with this movie and Alan does a wonderful job portraying his character.
there were some amazingly moving parts. others, not so much. alan's mustache was also very distracting.
Colossal beating! I love Alan Rickman, but this was just painfully dull and slow, which I should have known since it was writeen and directed by Anthony Minghella
One of the most moving films I've ever seen, and really well acted and plotted, too. Alan Rickman (delicious, as usual) is brilliant, and Juliet Stevenson is astonishing as a woman in the full-on throes of raw grief; her performance really touched me. A cleverer, more moving, more interesting and better acted version of 'Ghost'; I really recommend this.

CastActors & Cast for Truly, Madly, Deeply
Juliet Stevenson Alan Rickman..Truly Madly Deeply is an intelligent, moving, and deeply funny story about love and death. Nina (Juliet Stevenson), a scatterbrained professional translator, has lost the love of her life, Jami...( read more )e (Die Hard's Alan Rickman). As her life (and her flat) slowly falls to pieces, she's inundated by an endless stream of repair men and eligible suitors. But rather than go on with life, Nina dwells on her dead love, slumped at her piano, endlessly playing half of a Bach duet. Then, in a truly magical sequence, his cello suddenly joins her melody ... and Jamie's back from the dead.
At first it's bliss. (Think of the superficially similar blockbuster Ghost--only with real people instead of pretty faces Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze.) But Nina gradually realizes it's a thoroughly real Jamie who's back, complete with every annoying, argumentative fault she'd conveniently forgotten. (He might be dead, he explains, but he still attends political meetings.) Moreover, he has to hide whenever any of the living are around. And he's constantly ice-cold. And he invites his dead pals to her place at all hours. What's a living woman to do?
Director Anthony Minghella went on to create the melodramatic period piece The English Patient--but in this film, he shows a far more sensitive, subtle touch. The photography is brilliant, capturing the simple beauties of suburban London. And the wonderfully acted characters, quirky and all too real, will keep you laughing--and always guessing what will happen next. --Grant Balfour
Touching, powerful and sometimes funny romantic comedy. He's dead, she's alive, their still "truly, madly, deeply". Rickman and Stevenson have so much chemistry together. Under rated and some-what forgotten. Check it out.
Truly touching, powerful and at times funny. It really makes sense to have Alan and Juliet as the couple as they have a wonderful presence on screen together. One of my all time favorite romantic movies.
This is a great movie. I cried on quite a few parts. Alan Rickman sings soooo great in this film. I wish that we could hear him sing more often.
This film will make you very angry if you are a Rickman fan, especilly the ending, but it is still worth watching.
first true romatic film in a while but does drag on in places, alan rickman is spellbinding as usual!
Hard-to-follow flick in the same vein as Ghost. Of course, I may have found it hard to follow, simply because I saw it on an airplane.
I really liked this film, but I'll probably never watch it again. It was too painful! Most I ever cried over a movie until I saw Ordet. But it has some really good lessons about how grieving is OK, but at some point you need to move on.
If only one has patience to sit through the slow moments in the beginning, it turns into real gem... and I discovered Alan Rickman in this and swooned.
This movie was intrduced to me by mum who always thought it was funny because it was released shortly after my uncle Jim passed away, and the story goes Jamie (played brilliantly by Alan Rickman) Dies leaving behind a grieving girlfriend who is stuggling to come to terms with his death and she comes home one day to discover much to her surprise that he is living on in her flat (which he hates) in the form of a ghost she is so happy that he has returned to her she completly forgets about the fact heis a ghost and then one day he brings all his new ghost mates home to watch classic movies in her living room and they end up staying for quite some time. My mum all ways said that this is so much like something Jim would have done given the chance! It is an absolutly beautiful film which never ever fails to have me in tears yet i still watch it. I must for all rom com fans!
