A very old film from 1950 is September Affair. It stars Joan Fontaine as Marianne "Manina" Stuart , a prominent concert pianist. On a flight from Rome to New York, she meets David Lawrence, played by Joseph Cotten, a businessman. Their plane is diverted to Naples for engine repairs, and they decide to kill time by doing some sight-seeing. They talk too long and miss their flight, and decide to stay on for a few days, getting to know each other and they quickly fall in love. Then they hear that the plane they were scheduled to catch has crashed into the ocean, and all on board are presumed dead, including themselves. Thinking their absences won't make any difference to the world, they decide to begin a new life together in Florence. They make no contact with their families or friends, including Lawrence's wife and son.
I won’t give away the ending, in the event that someone wants to watch this movie, but I wanted to know what others thought about the backdrop of this film.
