Sweet November is a 1968 romantic comedy-drama Technicolor film written by Herman Raucher and starring Sandy Dennis, Anthony Newley and Theodore Bikel. The film had originally been written as a stage play by Raucher, but before it was even performed, Universal Pictures got wind of the project and paid Raucher $100,000 USD (or the modern equivalent of $583,000) to stop work on the play and adapt it as a screenplay. A remake was released in 2001 under the same name, with Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron playing the roles played by Newley and Dennis respectively.
