 bad stuff March 26, 2007

I wrote a review for this movie and it disappeared. I would like to know why, but I'll try again.
I did not like this movie. I love Jack Finney and he would not approve of this movie. Here is this guy who is a few weeks away from getting married and he is writing love letters to a ghost. What does this say about him? I saw nothing in her letter that should have made him fall in love with her. I felt the whole thing was bogus, the guy was a cheat to his fiance and he dumped her with no tears or emotion. The fiance was clearly in love with him, but was probably lucky he dumped her. He seemed deranged, even to his mother. I didn't feel it was romantic at all and I love romantic movies (especially "magic of ordinary days"). ...and who was the girl he met in the cemetary? ...an illegitimate daughter of the girl with the desk? If so, wasn't she his own great, great granddaughter? forget buying this. watch "Lake House" instead. It's a much better time travel movie.
 Loved it! February 6, 2007

This movie was almost impossible to find. Favorite line.."I ache for a love that burns like fire and moonlight." Maybe time travel is possible. (not really:-)

If you love history and digging into the past, and you let your heart believe in the impossible, you will love the movie!
Disappointing... July 7, 2006

This review is for those of you considering shelling out money for this DVD. If you haven't seen it yet, I'd suggest you rent it or borrow from the library first. After reading all the positive reviews, and seeing the Korean movie adapation, Il Mare, I decided to buy this (and it wasn't exactly a bargain either). I was sadly disappointed. The production quality is quite bad, making the historic parts barely believable - e.g. the war scene with Campbell Scott was laughable. I've seen Hallmark films before, and the quality was never this bad (e.g. Sarah, Plain and Tall was quite good). The poorly staged scenes were so distracting that I couldn't get into the story. For a great movie involving letters travelling through time, try The Lakehouse or Il Mare, which are both loosely based on the same story.
A movie much too wonderful to miss. June 6, 2006

This is a wonderful, wonderful love story that I DO watch over and over again. I let someone borrow it and didn't get it back for 9 months!!! I got it back yesterday and watched it right then. I have the video tape and am now looking to buy it on DVD. Wow, what a movie. So full of life, love and..... just so much... Watch it and you will understand.
