Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

papacatfish75 I have to admit it ...eyes were full of tears and the heart was hurting for the characters in this movie. A great movie...not really..but a great love story YES. In the vain of "the Notebook" it makes your heart do the thinking. When watching the two characters interact on an emotional trail only, its hard to not to become involved. As I watched my mind stepped back 65 years wondering if somehow I could connect with my first love...you know that 4th grade little girl that sat in front of you with long hair that you just couldn't keep from touching. Even as a little boy I know I loved her with all my heart. When that faithful day came her family had to move to Chicago...2500 miles away, I cried for months. Her image never left my mind. Even today I see her as she was 65 years ago...loving her as much today as I did then..Crazy , huh If you haven't seen the movie ..don't miss another day.

rpj-3 This is a fantastic fantasy film. I especially enjoyed Jennifer Jason Leigh's acting. I think her mannerisms and speech patterns were right on for the time period she was portraying. Her move to a modern woman at the end just amazed me. Her acting ability is tops.Campbell Scott's love for her was clearly evident, even though there was no interaction between them for most of the movie. Stellar acting on his part also.The story was quite logical for fantasy and was easily followed.I only wish there was someplace to retrieve the poem from the movie if indeed it was more than just the one line "Stranger, not on this earth shall we meet..."I can't say enough good things about this film. I have watched it several times and enjoyed it more each time.

shawe49 I saw this movie a few years ago, and never knew that Dan Curtis had produced it. It definitely was one of the Ageless Love Stories that I hope will continue to grace our Television for many years to come. I remember the excitement I felt waiting for it to come on. I think it was a Sunday night special. I had made myself remember it all week. When it did start, I didn't know exactly how it would work out. If I had known Dan Curtis was involved I could have understood how it could do time travel. It was so intense and so much love that I cried in parts of it. It reminded me of One that Lindesy Wagner played in called The Two lives of Jenny Logan. I also have a favorite, Somewhere in Time that Jayne Semoyre played in with Christopher Reeves. I have another on e that has stayed in my mind for 35 years and I have looked everywhere for a copy of it. Roy Thinnes, 1970 played in 'The Other Man. This was a wonderful movie that I have never forgotten. I have so badly wanted it to be remade with good actors and promoted in a proper way - so it could live on. These shows are what great Love Romances are all about. They should be recognized and set apart to always be remembered. I want to do my part in always remembering them.

SaturnWings If you're not a romantic and/or unwilling to suspend belief, this movie isn't for you. If you think that there are such things as a truly unexpected plot twist in a romantic movie, this movie really isn't for you. In short, the movie was made perfectly for the audience it intended to target. Don't get me wrong. There's nothing spectacular about this movie, but it certainly does charm you into liking it, and it most definitely entices you into watching more than once. It's sweet and wonderful with a somewhat bittersweet ending. And for those grumbling about the ending, I thought it was perfectly fine. There was no way for Scotty and Elizabeth to be together, and he moved on as he must, just like she did. That's not to mention that he didn't lay his grief aside lightly. From the onset of the relationship, Scotty already knew that Lizzy was dead, and standing in front of her grave only gave confirmation of that. Seeing Lizzy's descendant and asking her out for coffee was a somewhat odd but not unbelievable thing for him to do. He needed to move on, and in front of him stood a woman that reminded him of Lizzy, except for the whole being alive bit. It's a much more believable ending than sending him back in time or sending her forward, but it's not so sad as to have him die to come to her.To sum up, the Love Letter is a sappy, soppy, touching movie about two individuals who find themselves at an impasse. They're in love, but they've never met nor will ever be able to meet. It's a love that, literally, spans the passage of time. This movie will touch your heart if you let it.
