Frank and Molly meet first by chance and later by choice. There's one thing standing between their intense, newfound love--both are already married.

Sometimes magic is the only thing that's real. Falling in Love is a shining example of the magic that's created when two of Hollywood's biggest and brightest stars join forces in one special film. Academy Award Winners Robert De Niro (The King of Comedy) and Meryl Streep (Silkwood) are together again for the first time since The Deer Hunter. In Falling in Love, they play Frank Raftis and Molly Gilmore, two everyday people who meet first by chance, and later by choice. There's just one thing standing between Frank and Molly's intense, newfound love--both are already married. It's a genuine modern dilemma, and De Niro, Streep and a fine supporting cast bring the story to life with flair and sensitivity.

Director Ulu Grosbard's (Straight Time) understated, star-driven romantic drama is as much a showcase for New York City during the holiday season, as it is for the undeniable chemistry between its two iconic, legendary leads. Originally titled The Rizzoli Affair by screenwriter and playwright Michael Cristofer (The Shadow Box), the film is set entirely in the New York metropolitan area and portrays the city's environs and people with care and authenticity. Locations range from the famed Rizzoli Bookstore to Grand Central Station to the Westchester suburbs served by the Metro-North Railroad. Harvey Keitel (Blue Collar), Dianne Wiest (Hannah and Her Sisters), David Clennon (The Thing), Jane Kaczmarek (TV's Malcolm in the Middle) and George Martin (Crossing Delancey) co-star. Scored by New York film music maestro Dave Grusin (Three Days of the Condor), with production design by Santo Loquasto (Desperately Seeking Susan) and shot by Peter Suschitzky (The Rocky Horror Picture Show), Falling in Love has been remastered from a new 4K scan of its original 35mm camera negative for this worldwide Blu-ray premiere.
