Prioritize:
A nice story about one love. Kirk Douglas and Dany Robin complement each other wonderfully, and the fact that they are each of different nationalities works well for them. They were able to use it perfectly. It's essentially just a romance, but the finale is so beautifully cruel that all you can do at the end is sigh, realizing that sometimes things just can't end well.
