RELEASE:
MIAMI, FL, September 12, 2002-- ONE SPECIAL NIGHT, a love story reuniting
Oscar and Emmy Award winner Julie Andrews and Emmy Award winner James
Garner, this time as strangers who take refuge in a small cabin during a
blizzard and, despite their many differences, discover that fate has brought
them together, will be released on VHS and DVD on November 26, 2002 (prebook
on November 6, 2002).
The story is
set during the holiday season as both Dr. Catherine Howard (Andrews) and
Robert Woodward (Garner) wind up at the same medical facility, one still
missing a loved one, the other visiting his spouse. Although they have lived
within miles of each other for years, Catherine, a striking woman who is
known to power walk to Mozart's Fifth Symphony, and Robert, a ruggedly
handsome father of two grown children, have never met.
Outside, snow
has begun to fall and, despite a brusque first encounter, when Catherine
learns that Robert is stranded, she offers him a ride home in her Jaguar.
Almost immediately, they get off to a rocky start when Robert irritates
Catherine with comments about her car and her driving. Sparks fly as
Catherine struggles to maneuver the car and Robert barks directions. Much to
their chagrin, the car finally careens off the road into a snow bank. After
trudging through the blizzard, they miraculously discover an empty cabin to
shelter them from the storm.
The pair
spars about everything from cooking to board games, but it's clear that
they're attracted to each other. While the storm rages outside, Catherine
and Robert get comfortable over a bottle of wine and share stories about
their pasts and their loved ones. As they break through each other's shells,
the two become friends and it becomes clear that one day they will have a
lot more to share.
Patricia Charbonneau (She's All That, Kiss The Sky, K2) stars as Lori,
Robert's daughter, who spearheads the search for her snowbound father and
his new friend.
Andrews and
Garner previously starred together in the motion pictures
"Victor/Victoria" (1982) and "The Americanization of
Emily" (1964). Andrews won an Oscar for her performance in "Mary
Poppins" and multiple Emmy Awards for "The Julie Andrews
Hour." Garner received an Emmy for his role in "The Rockford
Files" series and as producer of the CBS drama special "The
Promise."
