  1. Thanks Mike and Anon. Critical scores change all the time. I took Affair with a Stranger off the missing movies list. I will add the last two movies to the database. Thanks for that box office info Mike….you are the man!

    However the main table does give a box office figure of $29.3 for “Affair with a Stranger”.
