Letters to Juliet

I searched through the first seven pages of threads and didn't find one about the movie, so I hope I'm not double-posting. . . But I wanted to recommend Letters to Juliet if anyone is looking for a good, clean, utterly romantic movie to watch. I've seen it twice this year, but I think I'm going to watch it again. The Italian scenery alone is enough to make me swoon! Here's the synopsis:

Quote :

Synopsis: When a young American (Amanda Seyfried) travels to the city of Verona, home of the star-crossed lover Juliet Capulet of Romeo and Juliet fame, she joins a group of volunteers who respond to letters to Juliet seeking advice about love. After answering one letter dated 1951, she inspires its author (Vanessa Redgrave) to travel to Italy in search of her long-lost love and sets off a chain of events that will bring a love into both their lives unlike anything they ever imagined.

Such a good movie! Okay, I'm done rambling. (Except to add that, Amy, I think you'd especially like it!)

Edited before Fife ticketed! Thanks for not swooping down within moments of it being posted!

I read it, too! What'd I miss?

OH! I noticed that, but figured maybe "Juliette" was the name of the woman who travels to Verona. I feel so deceived.

You'll catch me another time.

But I wanted to catch you this tiiiime! (Read that with a Barney whine, please. )

Whoa, dude! Brain fry!

I agree... that movie is great! I watched it with my mom and she fell in love with it. I love the scenery as well.

And where did you find this?

An excellent imitation!

It's utterly charming.

I used Google's image search, looking for a "dodge the bullet" smiley - and it brought that up.

That's in slo-mo... I should like to see one in normal speeeed.

We saw this movie. We love it.

I must see this!! I'm pretty sure we talked about this once too, but there wasn't a specific thread about it, so you're good! Ok, it's official. This is the next one I'm netflixing! I'll keep ya posted Savannah, but I think it's a pretty safe bet I'm going to love it!

Oh, but you have to promise me that you're going to watch Under the Tuscan Sun.

I've been meaning to rent that ever since you mentioned it to me a few weeks back. Thanks for the reminder. (I posted a reply to you last night, but it disappeared. At least, I thought I did. I may have just clicked "preview", though, and not actually posted it.)

No, you posted. I remember seeing it.

Okay - thank you, Rob. I was wondering if I'd just imagined that I'd seen it posted.

That is so strange that your posts disappear from time to time! Ok, it's a deal....we'll both watch our 'Tuscany' movies!

I'll be on the look out for this one. I've got to catch up on some movies I've bought and haven't had time to watch.
