What is the longest time you've waited for someone? Someone who is worth the wait? A month? A year? Let's be generous and let's just guess, five years? But have you ever waited for someone for over FIFTY years? I am pretty sure the answer's a negative.
In Letter's to Juliet, a woman named Claire, has found her true love again, after fifty long years. Let's start from the begging, It all started with a teenage woman finding and knowing that she found a man she would love forever. Claire was a teenager when she met Lorenzo, they used to have so much fun together, spending each second they could with each other. It was love at first sight, they loved each other more than anything. But I don't know what Destiny had for breakfast that day and Claire had to go to London because her parents wanted a better place to live in. Well, it seems it ends here right? Come on I have a review to write! I can't have a piece of barely 150 words and a movie can't be that short. So moving on, I think Destiny realized it's mistake that she should never let her breakfast mix with her professional life, and mended it, even though it was after 50 years. But just like any other love story, she made sure that people involved were willing to bring back the past.
A girl named Sophie went to supposedly a honeymoon with her fiance. As obvious it may sound, they went to France. But it turned out as a business trip for her budding chef fiance (disastrous) and she toured France alone (end of the world). Where she met a woman at the wall of Juliet and others who called themselves the 'secretaries of Juliet', this sounds highly unlikely but these beautiful women sit together and reply to the cries and problems the girls put on the their letters. I mean wow! can it get any deeper than that? well it did, when I watched the movie further.
Sophie decided that she'll reply those letters as she was looking for something to do in France. The other day when she was collecting the letters she found a letter hidden inside a wall, it was just kept there for years. She decided to write back to the sender regardless of the fact that it was written a long long time ago and she may or may not get a reply. Well, she one. Claire herself. They go on a chase to find a Lorenzo Bartolini, even if there were more than 70 Lorenzo in France. Oh the love.
I am not saying anything more...I would ruin the story then, but I just love the fact that this movie highlights the fact that true love exists and there are no barriers of time holding it. And also the fact that it all started with a reply and ended with a reading of it.....and also a balcony and the usual mushy mushy. You will know the exact meaning of it when you see the movie.
