"You need only courage to follow your heart. I don't know what a love like Juliet's feels like - love to leave loved ones for, love to cross oceans for but I'd like to believe if I ever were to feel it, that I will have the courage to seize it"
A wall in Verona, Italy, is known for Juliet's stone balcony. Lost souls leave letters in the wall of love gone wrong, and love missing in action, and lovers needing advice, and love stories lacking love. A group of Juliet's secretaries answer the letters. An American girl, Sophie, on a pre-honeymoon vacation in Italy finds an unanswered "letter to Juliet" from 50 years ago lying within the wall. She then decides that she must answer the letter and thus begins a quest to find the lost lovers referenced in the letter. Letters to Juliet, which takes its basic inspiration from a true story, is a gentle, charming story that features a winning lead performance from Amanda Seyfried.
