!!The Last Tropes from Your Lover:
* AffairLetters: The basis of the plot. Jenny and Anthony wrote letters to each other throughout their relationship.
** While Jenny was amnesiac, her husband Lawrence found the letters chronicling her affair with Anthony and hid them in his study. When she confronts him about it, [[spoiler:he lies that Anthony died in the car accident to throw her off.]]
** When Jenny tries to [[spoiler:take flight with Anthony years later and misses him, she leaves the letters with the London Chronicle, which is where Ellie finds them decades later.]]
* AffectionateNickname: In the letters that chronicle their affair, Jenny and Anthony refer to each other as "J" and "Boots".
* CaughtInTheRain: At one point early in their affair, Anthony and Jenny scramble to the car in the middle of a rainstorm, leading to a romantic moment.
* DecemberDecemberRomance: ImpliedTrope. [[spoiler:The film ends on Anthony and Jenny reuniting in their old age, and while we never see if they work out, they are clearly more than happy to see each other again and reminisce on the time they spent together.]]
* EasyAmnesia: The beginning shows that Jenny was in a car accident and doesn't remember her life before it. When [[spoiler:she bumps into Anthony again four years later, the memories come rushing back.]]
* {{Epigraph}}: The film opens with a line from ''Literature/AFarewellToArms'': “Why, darling, I don’t live at all when I’m not with you.”
* GoodAdulteryBadAdultery: PlayedWith. Anthony cheated on his wife in the backstory and this is seen as a negative thing by both his ex-wife, himself, and Jenny, who wonders if Anthony might also cheat on ''her''. And while Jenny is a SympatheticAdulterer and her affair with Anthony is the film's big romance, her husband Larry rightly points out that the courts will see her as a bad adulterer regardless.
* RomanticRain: Jenny and Rory have TheBigDamnKiss under an umbrella in a rainshower near the end.
* RuleOfThree: Anthony asks Jenny to meet with him thrice: once at the train station, the next [[spoiler:four years later at his residence, and the last in their old age. She misses the first two, but is only a little late for the last one.]]
* SceneryPorn: Anthony and Jenny grow closer and first consummate their affair amidst the lush scenery of the French Riviera, which is given cinematic appeal and attention.
* SympatheticAdulterer: Jenny cheats on Larry because he's emotionally distant and always working.
* UnrequitedLoveLastsForever: PlayedWith, in that the love ''was'' requited, but both parties thought it was unrequited. In the decades following [[spoiler:Jenny's divorce, Anthony thought Jenny had rejected him with finality while Jenny was unable to find him. Nevertheless, neither got over the other, and bittersweetly reunite in the present day at Ellie's behest.]]
