Customer Reviews of Oliver's Story
A Must-See Follow-up For "Love Story" Fans Although not as interesting as "Love Story," this sequel does allow us to see what Oliver's life was like in the years after Jenny's death.
The movie begins with Jenny's funeral and we watch Oliver go through the motions of living, but not really participating in anything except his work. One day, he meets a jogger played by Candice Bergen. They begin a relationship that is pretty much of a bore to all but the most devoted Ryan O'Neal fans (of which I am definitely one!). Ms. Bergen's portrayal is wooden and unappealing, and viewers are probably relieved when she announces she can no longer live with Jenny's ghost. The one good thing her character, Marcy Bonwit Nash, does is take Oliver on a tour of her company's Hong Kong factories. When Oliver sees the poor conditions there, he begins to gain respect for his father and the way the senior Barrett ran his mills.
Oliver's long overdue reunion with his father is touching and we finally get a glimmer of hope at the end that Oliver has learned that living is for the living, and he will finally be able to live his life again.
Not a great movie, but interesting and definitely worth seeing if you loved "Love Story."
Not a Very Good Movie...BUT
A second boring love story with Ryan O'Neil trying to rebuild his life after the death of his wife, meeting a new woman and the relationship goes no where. But the film is redeamed by Oliver re-estalishing a relationship with his father (Ray Milland) and thinking of going into his father's business after retirement.
