On this day, December 13, 1989, Enemies, A Love Story premiered in theaters. Directed by Paul Mazursky and based on the novel by Isaac Bashevis Singer, the film stars Ron Silver, Anjelica Huston, Lena Olin, and Margaret Sophie Stein.

Set in post-World War II New York, the story follows Holocaust survivor Herman Broder (Silver) as he juggles relationships with three women—his wife, his mistress, and the wife he thought he lost in the war. The film explores themes of love, guilt, and survival with both humor and poignancy.

While Enemies, A Love Story earned critical acclaim and received several Academy Award nominations, including nods for Huston and Olin, it underperformed at the box office, grossing $7.7 million against its $9.5 million budget.
