Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

tehachapistan Much has been said about this beautiful story. Several have asked where to buy a DVD. I found an online streaming version of it on Lifetime, but locating a source for purchasing it was a challenge. As it turns out, the DVD is available at Amazon. I receive no compensation for posting this message.

Thomas_J_Bennett This is a vintage Rod Sterling production, which originally was done as the thirtieth show of "The Twilight Zone" in 1960. The main character takes a train to work and after going through a tunnel is transported back 100 years. This is mysterious, but after transferring back and forth several times, he meets a lovely young woman from the 1890's and falls in love with her. But he already has a wife. Then he realizes it will be another 70 years or so before she is born. What does he do? Stay with the new sweetheart who lives in the uncomplicated 1890's, or go back to the faultfinding complainer of the 1990s? The train conductor tells him he's got to make a choice and stick with it. The special thing about this movie is that men will automatically identify with one of the male leads, and women will see a little of themselves in both the wife and sweetheart. I've seen the updated version (Mark Harmon and Morgan Freeman) twice, and would very much like to get a copy for myself. As an aside, my wife recently purchased the British movie "Love Actually" and likes it so much that she's watched it 6 or 7 times. I may do the same thing with "A Stop at Willoughby."

ejames13 Very,very enjoyable film!!!!!; Mark Harmon & Mary McDonnell were great!. Great detail in time area and clothing. I felt like I could visit there myself given the watch and train tracks. A highly recommendable movie!. I takes us back to the time of are grandparents and the mode of transportation they had.

tgreene_msp The reason I called this by the above name is that Mr. Matheson was a major writer for the Twilight Zone, and is also well-credited with writing a time-travel story of his own, "Bid Time Return". Some of you may know this story better by its Hollywood nom de voyage, "Somewhere In Time".Speaking of that other movie, in 2000, when this movie was released to the viewing public, it was one week prior to SIT's 20th anniversary Re-release on DVD. While some other networks rushed through production their own story that matched the general theme of SIT, this Canadian-filmed release seems to at least incorporate the main points of the established film. There was a watch, a choice, and a love story. Since SIT was set at the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, the railroad connection was a bit of a reach, as The Grand Hotel was originally a railroad hotel.All in all, this movie was an excellent production, due in no small part to the ability of its main characters to work within the framework of the script. Mark Harmon's moment of indecision on his last train trip does not come across a man who is lost, but a man who is taking stock of what is most important. the same can be said for Ms. McDonnell's performance in the film, as her embodiment of a woman of the time is well played.All in all, A good film to watch when you can.
