- Similar to A Kiss in the Tunnel (1899), this remake omits the phantom ride scenes and chooses to portray a significantly steamier, more prolonged, and more explicit passion between a young couple. Surely, this is a kiss to remember.
- Similar to George Albert Smith's, A Kiss in the Tunnel (1899), James Bamforth's version embraces the three-shot form; however, the filmmaker omits the opening and closing phantom ride scenes and chooses to show the actual train entering the tunnel. In addition, the couple is much younger, and, in contrast to the affluent aristocrats of the original story, their ordinary attire suggests a lower social class. As a result, the first-class cigar becomes a humble cigarette; nevertheless, the passion between the protagonists is significantly steamier, more prolonged--and above all--more explicit. Surely, this is a kiss to remember.—Nick Riganas
- A train heads for a tunnel. In one car, a restless man smokes, and a woman is reading on the seat opposite him. In the darkness of the tunnel, he rises, crosses over to her seat and the two share a willing embrace and kiss. The train steams out of the tunnel toward us and past us.—<jhailey@hotmail.com>
