Strife-torn America wanted a meat-and-potatoes romance in the late
1960s, and the country embraced Erich Segal's slim, generic-sounding
novel in a big way. It did so again for the film adaptation of Love Story
in 1970, starring Ryan O'Neal as a law student who defies his rich and
powerful father (Ray Milland) on every issue, including the former's
love for a music student (Ali MacGraw). The two marry, start life
together ... and then the Grim Reaper turns up at the door. Directed by
Arthur Hiller (The In-Laws), the film ends up lacking the kind
of stylistic boost that might have made it a must-see for the ages. But
its faithfulness to the book's uncomplicated and, yes, moving
intentions is pretty solid. O'Neal is convincing as a nice guy who's as
bullheaded in his own way as his steely father (a nice job by Milland),
and MacGraw has a way of getting under one's skin. A viewer just has to
try not laughing at the refrain, "Love means never having to say you're
sorry"
