We’ve all had that “what if” moment of wonderment when thinking about past lovers. That moment plays out yearly when former lovers Doris and George happen to meet again and rekindle their past relationship. First a play, then a movie, this laugh-out-loud comedy explores the passion of these lovers — now married to others — who meet every year in the exact same time and place over a 25-year period.
