Kate and Leopold: Difference between revisions

There are complications. No one in the 21st century ''believes'' Leopold is the Duke of Albany, and he is too honorable a man to make a story that anyone will believe. Oh, and Leopold is the inventor of the elevator, but hadn't invented it yet when he chased Stuart. Thus, all the elevators start malfunctioning as soon as Leopold hits the present. Stuart is the victim of a severe elevator accident, and so is sidelined for most of the film desperately trying to deliver important messages -- a problem made worse because these messages all involve time travel.

* [[I Gave My Word]]: Marriage is the promise of eternal love and as a man of honor, Leopold can not promise eternally what he has never felt momentarily.
