Stanley Cox is an illiterate short-order cook who has never taken a chance at love. Iris King is a newly widowed factory worker who has vowed never to love again. Still grieving eight months after her husband's death, she lives from paycheck to paycheck and raises two children. To make ends meet, she rents out space to her sister and brother-in-law who have financial and marital problems as well. Her daughter seeks escape through the company of boys resulting in an out of wedlock pregnancy, which makes matters worse. However, as their friendship slowly blossoms and Iris helps Stanley learn to read, his strong yet gentle kindness helps mend her broken heart. And where two lonely strangers stood trapped within the past, Stanley and Iris can now begin a new chapter of their lives - together.

| Washington PostDesson ThomsonMcAlpine may be the movie's smartest contributor. He alone seems to realize that this pedantic project will soon be graduating into home-video or classroom use. |
| New York TimesVincent CanbyIt's as honest and direct and entertaining as the considerable talents of everyone involved can make it. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a harmless little romance that's elevated slightly by the charisma of its two stars... |
| VarietyVariety StaffThe elements are in place but they don't add up to great drama in this well-meant effort to personalize the plight of illiterate people. |
| User ReviewAlan WThis is a simple, touching, heart warming movie. The acting is not acting; you feel you are peeking into people's lives. Very mellow, bit unbelievable (how can someone not know how to read or write?) yet one of the most memorable movies I have seen. Jane Fonda and RdN take it to this level with their portrayal of Iris and Stanley. |
| User ReviewMichael BDe Niro makes you feel really sorry for his character |
| User ReviewCassie Hsome relations really add life to life..i like this type of movies. |
| User ReviewBrian GThis was such a great movie and really great acting in this movie! |
| User ReviewMel LI really enjoyed this movie, it was really cute and sweet. Love works in such mysterious ways... |
| User ReviewAnthony SVery sweet movie. Love amongst real life's ups & downs. De Niro is great here, showing a different side from his usual tough guy roles. |
