'ONE SPECIAL NIGHT,' A Holiday Romance Reuniting Julie Andrews and James Garner, To Be Released By MTI Home Video November 26th!!!
Perennial Holiday Favorite Was the Highest-Rated And Most-Watched Movie on Any Network During the 1999-2000 Television Season

FOR IMMEDIATE 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."

ONE SPECIAL NIGHT is a Green/Epstein/Bacino Production. Jim Green, Allen Epstein and Mark Bacino are the executive producers; Gary Pudney is the co-executive producer; Roger Young, the director. Nancey Silvers wrote the script based on the play "A Winter Visitor" by Jan Hartman.
