Two For the Road

About Two For the Road

Two for the Road is a 1967 British romantic comedy-drama film directed by Stanley Donen and starring Audrey Hepburn and Albert Finney. Written by Frederic Raphael, the film is about a husband and wife who examine their twelve-year relationship while on a road trip to Southern France. The film was considered somewhat experimental for its time because the story is told in a non-linear fashion, with scenes from the latter stages of the relationship juxtaposed with those from its beginning, often leaving the viewer to interpolate what has intervened, which is sometimes revealed in later scenes. Several locations are used in different segments to show continuity throughout the twelve-year period. Raphael received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay, Hepburn received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress – Motion Picture Comedy or Musical, and Henry Mancini received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Score. The film's theme song, "Two for the Road", was composed by Mancini, who wrote many notable theme songs for films, including "Moon River" for Breakfast at Tiffany's. He considered "Two for the Road" his favourite of all the songs he wrote. more »

If you're feeling fancy free,
Come wander through the world with me,
And any place we chance to be, 
Will be a rendezvous.

Two for the road,
We'll travel through the years, 
Collecting precious memories,
Selecting souvenirs 
And living life the way we please.

In the summertime the sun will shine,
In winter we'll drink summer wine,
And any day that you are mine, 
Will be a lovely day.

As long as love still wears a smile,
I know that we'll be two for the road,
And that's a long long while.
