In London, Helen is fired from her position in a PR company. While returning home, she does not catch the train in the subway. But in another possibility of her life, she catches the train in the subway. The story shows two parallel lives of Helen: in one life, she stays with her boyfriend Gerry, and in the other life, she finds that Gerry cheats her with Lydia, and she goes on to fall in love with James.

Sliding Doors Ratings & Reviews

  • M08YAugust 9, 2025
    For a fairly standard rom-com, the utilisation of two timelines is handled incredibly well. Good performances all round eleveate an alerady good script. The bluray was pretty terrible, even for a 90s rom com. Might have been better of with the DVD.
