Love Affair (1939)

Later remade as An Affair to Remember (1957) with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr, this original version (which stars Charles Boyer and Irene Dunne) is quite good, yet another great one from that golden year. Dunne & Maria Ouspenskaya (who plays Boyer's Grandmother) received Oscar nominations, as did Director Leo McCarey's film and Original Screenplay.

Boyer is a playboy who meets Dunne on a transatlantic cruise. They fall in love, but keep their romance a secret. At the end of the voyage, they plan to meet six months later at the Empire State building. Boyer needs to find a way to make a living before he can propose to Dunne. Turns out, he's a pretty good painter. Unfortunately, on the way to meeting him, she has an accident and is hospitalized. When she learns that she's been crippled, she decides not to burden him with it and never contacts him. Clueless to what's happened, he loses track of her, though he's painted a picture of her, as he remembers her, that will bring them back together.
