Don't Go Breaking My Heart is a 1999 British film, starring Anthony Edwards, Jenny Seagrove and Charles Dance. It was directed by Willi Patterson.
Suzanne, a beautiful widow, has to choose between Frank, a philandering dentist, and Tony, a sensitive, failing sports trainer who helps her son.
Dr. Fiedler played by Tom Conti is a parody of Dr Fassbender played by Peter Sellers in the movie What's New Pussycat?.
Bill Kenwright had to mortgage his own ã1 million London home to pay for its production. Geoff Morrow who wrote the screenplay also wrote the 1977-hit Can't Smile Without You. Despite being second billed, Linford Christie only makes a short cameo appearance in the pre-credit scene of the film.
Julianne Pidduck from Sight & Sound praised several aspects of the film, however she concluded: " But despite all efforts, an uninspired script and uneven direction fail to make Suzanne's unhappy lurches from mourning widow to tender lover plausible."
