    • Trivia
      Originally intended as a vehicle for Samantha Eggar and Anthony Newley, who had starred together the previous year in Doctor Dolittle (1967).
    • Goofs
      Early on, both characters are eating hot dogs, that go from shorter to longer, back and forth, after being partially eaten. At one point Charlie is chewing, and the hot dog and bun are whole.
    • Quotes

      Charlie Blake: Oh cut it out Sara, I love you. That means past November, past winter, past all the dumb years ahead. OK?

      Sara Deever: We made an agreement, you and I, we shook hands.

      Charlie Blake: Sara, kids do that.

      Sara Deever: A bargain is a bargain. A sacred vow and an oath. Whoever breaks that oath must give up all memories of the other. Do you want to give up your memories of me?

      Charlie Blake: No, of course I don't, and I don't have to.

      Sara Deever: No, no, I know, I know you don't have to, but supposing that you did.

      Charlie Blake: Sara, that's silly, I'd have no control over it. I can't just blot everything out simply because I agreed to.

      Sara Deever: People must be remembered Charlie, otherwise it's as if they were never here at all. All we are are the people who remember us. If we go away, and everybody forgets we were ever here, its as if we never were.

    One of my top ten favorite movies of all time!

    Maybe I'm weird but this film really struck a chord with me. What a tender and moving little love story..definitely a woman's movie, romantic and sweet. Sandy Dennis is at her quirky best in the role of Sara Dever...and Anthony Newley at his most attractive and wonderful as charming Charlie Blake is a perfect casting match.There is terrific music by Leslie Bricusse, a fine performance by Theodore Bikel as a crusading vegetarian signmaker....but mostly there is this incredible growth of love between Sara and Charlie that is a delight to watch from the first frame to the last..and an incredible bittersweet ending that has me in tears EVERY time I see it. This movie SINGS to me.A lost and forgotten gem of a play made into a movie Sweet November is a must see for anyone who has ever been in love ...and lost. Don't miss this one!!!! It is a definite KEEPER!
