Plot: A mysterious stranger has a surprising effect on three generations of women in this romantic comedy-drama. Ruth (Colleen Dewhurst) is a widow who runs a bed and breakfast in a small New England tourist community. Ruth shares her home with Claire (Talia Shire), who recently lost her husband, a well-known 1960s political activist, and Claire's daughter Cassie (Nina Siemaszko). Claire has to deal with the humiliation of a recent biography of her late husband that reveals the impressive degree of his infidelity, while Cassie is expected to follow in her father's political footsteps, even though she'd rather pursue a career in music. One day, the three women discover a gentleman who calls himself Adam (Roger Moore) has washed up on the shore. Adam is a con artist who was literally thrown off the yacht of someone he was trying to cheat, and now he fakes amnesia while he tries to get back on his feet and hide from his most recent victims. He does some odd jobs around the B&B to earn his keep and begins courting Claire, while he urges Ruth to take a chance with the lobster fisherman who has been after her for a date and encourages Cassie to follow her dream of making music. Bed and Breakfast was directed by Robert Ellis Miller, best known for his TV work and the feature Reuben, Reuben; the film was shot in 1989 but didn't receive its limited release until three years later. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

This is a lovely and funny film. It explores fidelity and independance as well as the idea that love can be washed in by the sea - and this film has a charming twist at the end.

PLEASE BRING THIS FILM OUT ON DVD !!!!!

I caught this film the other day on Romance Classic's sneak preview on AMC. I don't ususally watch any of the Romance Classics, but being a Roger Moore fan, it grabbed my attention. I really enjoyed it. Great performances all around, and especially by Moore. I never thought that he was capable of such a subtle performance. A beautiful film just to look at the landscape. A great "slow" film. Obviously, you cannot buy it, but definitely rent it if you can. It's perfect for those rainy days when you just want to stay in.
