Navigating the Heart
When sophisticated New York journalist Edith Iglauer is assigned to go to British Columbia to write a frivolous piece on the fishing industry, she butts heads with local fisherman and notorious loner, John Daly. While she thrives on the fast-paced life of Manhattan, he loathes pretension and could go days without speaking to anyone. But when the two are caught in a perilous situation, they are forced to put aside their pettiness and re-examine their lives. With external factors stripped away, they begin to fall in love. Ultimately, Edith must decide between staying in the glamorous world she has always cherished or leaving it all behind for a chance at love.

Simply Perfect
Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
This is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time...Tim Matheson is excellent as a fisherman who loves and respects nature and eventually a beautiful woman. I learned a lot about salmon fishing and the risks the fishermen take to put salmon on our tables. Tantoo Cardinal's explanation of the Indian Ritual was beautiful and so true. So much of the movie was simple, yet powerful and beautiful. I read Edith Iglauer's book and thought it was very good. Even though, the movie takes some liberties, it was easy to see how much John and Edith loved and respected each other in both the book and the movie. My two favorite scenes were when Edith was telling John she had to go back to New York and his response, and then when they got off the boat to walk up to their wedding altar. The way John looked at Edith and placed his hand over hers would melt one's heart. He was so masculine and Edith was so feminine, and yet, she would not only become a part of this rugged life, but make it a part of hers. There is something to be said for going back to nature. Wonderful, wonderful story.
Yes it's a plain and simple love story that was never going to be an Oscar contender. But not as awful as some think. John and Edith don't fall in love overnight as suggested elsewhere - She's up in BC for 3 weeks before the relationship is fully realised. Secondly the scene on the boat could hardly be called "getting naked" in a sense of ridicule. They merely remove wet clothes to save freezing and covered immediately in blankets the most you ever see of Edith is a bit of bare arm ! I enjoyed the film. Tim Matheson gave as solid a performance as you see regularly on West Wing and he would warrant parts in more aignificant movies than this. Jaclyn Smith looked about 35 instead of the 53 she was when the film was made and was attractive and ultimately heart-warming in the part.In summary a nice film to watch on a wet afternoon.
Okay, it is your typical "they hate each other at FIRST SIGHT" to falling madly in love in the course of a DAY! They are BOTH a couple of rude crabapples that deserve each other. I can't believe that ANY two people who had just met would be so crude and impolite....there was never even a "nice to meet you"...they just went right at it! Of course, when they have to get naked while their boat is sinking (to ostensibly keep each other warm) they become a little friendlier. It is all too much.....and very hard to buy. Don't waste your time.
This is a good romantic film and to my surprise it was really touchy. The story is an orthodox one of love. the kind that starts with tensions and resistance and ends up with everlasting love.to add more the movie is also giving a clear and simple idea about our lives. It tells us to stop for a moment and ask what are we doing, a question that some poeple rarely give time for.The movie was good and i if you like to have a good time and watch a simple direct movie which is not filled with false action please see it and you will not be sorry.
