Such is the question raised by young Oliver Barrett after the tragic death of his wife, Jenny. Thus begins the tormented tale of Love Story (1970).
Love Story was the sensation of the 1970's; a rich boy/poor girl saga where love prevailed over social standing and death tore them apart. Sigh. Love Story was one of the highest grossing movies of the decade and set the bar for romantic tearjerkers for years to come. Ladies (or gentlemen), if you want your boyfriend to break up with you, force him to sit through this film.
