Love letter

Slow and lil bit boring but u won't feel this is a great movie if u don't watch until the end

It seem that it is really rare to see Japanese movies without the gore and horror. Japanese films are known for their bizarre and masterfully horrifying films, such as gThe Ringh and gThe Grudgeh or maybe as disturbing as gAll About Lily Chou-Chouh and gSuicide Clubh or gBattle Royale.h But before Japanese horror fever swept across Asia, in 1995 one certain film should have grabbed the recognition that Japanese horrors have had these days, as it was truly a rare piece of Japanese drama. gLove Letterh is Shunji Iwaifs first feature film, which gave him a massive commercial success. It is an achingly sentimental, and poetic movie about love both lost and found.

Starring Japanfs famous TV drama queen, Miho Nakayama. She stars as Watanabe Hiroko, a young woman who struggles to recover from the death of her fiancé gItsuki Fujiih. When she discovers his old yearbook, hoping it could ease her own pain, she writes a letter to Itsuki and sends it to his former address. She doesnft intend for the letter to reach anyone, but surprisingly, she gets a response -- strangely from a recipient named gItsuki Fujiih -- a young woman who actually has the same name as her fiancé, more so was an old classmate of the late Itsuki Fujii. Hence starts their odd yet interesting relationship, as they share their memories with each other of the young and grown-up gItsuki Fujiih that they know.

Set against the picturesque backdrop of rural Hokkaido, gLove Letterh is one of the very few unforgettably charming Japanese films that I have seen in 3 years. Most of the time movies such as this film here, I could only find in an anime (Japanese animation). The film is truly affecting and overwhelms you with its heartfelt emotions that transpire from its characters.

The flashbacks are one of the most essential parts of the story as they give you a chance to get to know the core and soul behind the string of memories shared by its characters. What makes gLove Letterh even more beautiful is the brilliant storyline and its successful depiction of conjured yet believable sentiments that makes us all human.

As his first feature film, it seem that director Shunji Iwai held this movie near and dear to his heart that he completed it so beautifully. I feel as if he had poured so much time and love on it. gLove Letterh is truly a charmingly wistful piece of work.. a gorgeous masterpiece. Seeing it was indeed quite rewarding.

It's one of the best movie i've ever watched.
It's a very sweet and touching movie...
I think this movie is made specially for the ones who belive in love.. <3
