Letters to Juliet

Very entertaining. Enjoyed it.

Warm and brilliant, Letters to Juliet reunites Vanessa Redgrave and Franco Nero as a brilliant couple, with beautiful performances by Amanda Seyfrield and Christopher Egan.

This is a very good choice for a date night movie. We know the formula, girl is with guy number one, meets guy number two, goes back to guy number one, drops guy number one, goes back to guy number two and then……. Sorry, no spoilers. Remember, it’s a romance comedy (and a travel film) so you know there’s got to be a happy ending. Watch it with your sweetheart, and a bottle of wine (Italian wine, of course) and sit back and enjoy it. By the way, the Secretaries of Juliet, in Verona Italy, are a real thing. They really answer the letters that the love lorn have left on the wall outside Juliet’s balcony.

I absolutely loved it ❤!!! I want to go to Verona Italy to Juliet's balcony, and write her a letter... This movie was funny, and sweet, and romantic. I can't believe I've never seen it before.... ❤❤❤❤❤

One of my favorites!!

Yes it's clichéd but it's a beautiful tale and Vanessa Redgrave is incredible as Clare.

The story here is simple and deliberstely uncomplicated by any of lifes practicalities, and on it's own it would not hold the viewers interest for very long. However, the story is only one component of this remarkable work. Every frame of this film is beautifully crafted and it has some of the best cinematography I have ever seen. The locations are spectacular, and shot with such great care that the whole film is an absolute visual delight from start to finish. The soundtrack is just as carefully chosen and serves to enhance the films appeal. The pace is relaxed, as the film gradually seduces the viewer with the idealised Italian lifestyle of Verona. I really enjoyed the experience, and would recommend it to anyone wanting to escape their own reality for a while.

I liked it. Sweet story! Great scenes. Good fun!

Sophie, a young American woman is a fact checker working for The New Yorker. She is engaged to Victor, a chef and they go on a pre-honeymoon to Verona, Italy, the romantic home of "Romeo and Juliet" While Victor is traveling, all wrapped up in research for his new restaurant, Sophie discovers "Juliet's Courtyard" a place were thousands of "Letters to Juliet" are left each year. A group of local ladies answer these letters on Juliet's behalf and Sophie joins them. "There is a place were the heartbroken leave notes asking Juliet for her help." - Sophie While collecting these letters, Sophie finds a letter hidden behind a brick.... written in 1957! From a young British girl, Claire. "I didn't go to Lorenzo Juliet. I promised I'd meet him to run away together but instead I left him waiting for me. Please Juliet tell me what I should do. Love, Claire" - Letter Sophie decides to answer the letter and writes Claire back. Well Claire gets that letter and she shows up in Verona to Juliet's Courtyard with her grandson, Charlie.

They meet Sophie and decide to set out on a quest to find Claire's long lost true love Lorenzo Bartolini. "Charlie doesn't approve, which makes it all the more fun" - Claire There are over 70 Lorenzo Bartolinis in Italy and what if Claire's Lorenzo is married and has totally forgotten her? Charlie thinks so but Sophie is totally sure that Lorenzo is still waiting on his Juliet. "I'm, sorry, I didn't know love had an expiration date." - Sophie What a beautiful movie! The story is beautiful! The actors are beautiful! Italy is beautiful! Oh and Vanessa Redgrave is so beautiful and just absolutely wonderful as the star-crossed lover seeking her Romeo after 50 years. Maybe the story is a bit predictable but I really love watching how this love story plays out. Wow! Such a rare enjoyable and fun romantic adventure. Cast - Vanessa Redgrave, Amanda Seyfried, Franco Nero, Christopher Egan, Gael García Bernal

Not as good as I remember but still it was perfect for the summer. I still love Vanessa and her romance it's cute. But Amanda's romance was cringe and she had no chemistry with either man. Still cute and nostalgic ngl.
