“Based on a true story, C.S. Lewis (Anthony Hopkins) is a world renowned writer and professor. Unmarried, he leads a gentleman's life filled by intellectual pursuits, remaining untouched by any great passion until he meets Joy Gresham (Debra Winger). Joy is a feisty, abrasive New York divorcee whose sharp-edged, no-nonsense attitudes take Lewis by surprise. Bursting unexpectedly into Lewis' world, Joy shocks his associates and awakens him to deep emotions he had written about, but never experienced. Slowly he opens his heart to this woman, and their romance shatters the walls of his cloistered world. But life is made up of delicate balances, and Lewis must confront a terrible truth: that a heart awakened to great love is also opened to great pain. ”

这里有个影评--Roger Ebert的影评总是很尖锐

之所以找这个电影看, 是因为几天前刚读完这本书: Becoming Mrs. Lewis, 真人真事常常比话本子还要传奇。书跟电影不同之处是, 书是从女方视角, 而电影是从男方视角。
