Love Affair stars Charles Boyer as French playboy Michael Marnet, who meets American singer Terry McKay (Irene Dunne) on a transatlantic cruise, where they fall in love despite being engaged to others. The lovers agree to meet in six months atop the Empire State Building, but when tragedy strikes one of them, their plans are changed forever.
