Only You (1994)


A childhood incident has convinced Faith Corvatch (Marisa Tomei) that her true love is a guy named "Damon Bradley," but she has yet to meet him. Preparing to settle down and marry a foot doctor, Faith impulsively flies to Venice when it seems that she may be able to finally encounter the man of her dreams. Instead, she meets the charming Peter Wright (Robert Downey Jr.). But can they fall in love if she still believes that she is intended to be with someone else?

But in ourselves, that we are underlings."

This is another film that I don't get tired watching.  Yes, maybe it's not critically acclaimed(mixed reviews) or anything to that effect, but it's a movie that pulls heartstrings and makes you smile.  It's more than a movie about fate or its twists, it's also a movie about decisions and true love.

It's hard not to get swept away by the scenery and of course, the romance between these two.  Oh, how I miss Italy.
