Letters to Juliet

Would you forget someone you fell in love with after fifty years without knowing anything about him?

Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) is engaged with Víctor (Gael Garcia Bernal). He is going to inaugurate a new Italian restaurant in NY. They both go for a trip to Verona, the city of lovers. In this city there’s the Cappello’s house, with the balcony, the courtyard and the statue of Juliet. Lots of people go to this house and leave letters to Juliet waiting for her reply. A group of ten women and a man are responsible for replying those letters. Sophie finally helps them. She discovers a letter wrote fifty years ago by Claire Smith (Vanessa Redgrave) searching Lorenzo Bartolini (Franco Nero), of who she fell in love when she was an adolescent. Sophie answers this letter with the hope of helping her. Claire with his grandson Charlie (Chris Egan) travel from London to Verona to search Lorenzo. Sophie is going to help them looking for his old lover trough La Toscana.

The film is lovely, and it transmits a lot of emotions to the spectators. There are a lot of romantic moments where everyone can feel excited. It’s easy to abandon the cinema crying. Although it’s a romantic film, there is suspense until the end too, where all is finally clear with a curious ending that makes the spectator feel satisfied for watching the movie.
