Product Description

Product description

Brand NewStarring Campbell Scott and Jennifer Jason LeighRunning Time: 98 minutesTranscending the dimension of time, a love letter found in an antique desk magically seals the fate of two young people linked by destiny, yet separated by more than 100 years. A young man discovers a letter written by a mysterious woman named Lizzie, who lived long ago, and feels compelled to write to her. Correspondence ensues and grows into a love so powerful not even the years can keep them apart. Spanning the Civil War to the present, the perils of Lizzie's war-torn situation threaten her safe passage into the future. Will their love endure the test of time?

Amazon.com

No one with romantic tendencies will be able to resist The Love Letter. Campbell Scott plays a Civil War buff who buys a desk from that era. While polishing it, he discovers a secret compartment, in which sits an unmailed letter--a letter written by a young woman named Lizzie (Jennifer Jason Leigh) over a century earlier. Touched by her yearning for passion, he writes her back, egged on by his mystically inclined mother (Estelle Parsons). Magically his letter reaches Lizzie and they begin a correspondence that threatens Scott's impending marriage but promises to bring fulfilment to Lizzie. The Love Letter is absurd, yet somehow that doesn't stop it from being completely engaging and even moving. Scott and Parsons are solid, while Jason Leigh is downright rapturous--the movie may owe its success to her. The plot has surprising twists and the conclusion is sweet and satisfying. An unexpected pleasure. --Bret Fetzer

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this movie - love transcends time and space
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2018

I love the Hallmark Channel movie "The Love Letter". It is a really romantic movie that is totally unique in that although "time travel" romances have been done in the past, this movie shows a number of truly memorable scene(s) when Scott visits Lizzie's house in the present and Lizzie can actually in the vernacular feel his very presence in the past and he her. The most poignant scene to me is when Scott walks into Lizzie's bedroom and he can literally feel her and she him; Scott massages and caresess Lizzie's neck when previously they had "been doomed to never touch". Prior to this memorable scene there had been an incident when the two felt each other's presence on the staircase but they never touched in this instance, instead it was just a heightened awareness of the other person's presence on the empty stairwell. Goose bumps, people.

"The Love Letter" has one if those truly great climaxes' that linger long after the credit roll. As a matter of fact, this is foreshadowed when Lizzie is being romanced' in the past and she feels very drawn to him like she is drawn closer to Scott - two heart separated by time but one and the same is the best way to describe it. The climax scene - I have literally skipped to this climax scene I previously mentioned in my DVD and just played this magical, romantic scene. It is the scene when Scott visits Lizzie's grave in the present and reads the gravestone which says, "I never forgot" - a message from Lizzie from beyond the grave no less. As Scott is crying and bereft he is playfully ambushed by a friendly dog and the dog's lovely owner who exclaims "He must really like you, he doesn't usually jump on strangers..." than she pushed her hair off her face and WOW..OMG...you have to see it to believe it. Two hearts one soul...

I highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes otherworldly love stories and stories that suspend preconceived reality. I love this movie - unique and enchanting. Highly recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable fantasy

This t.v. film was based on a short story. The story really just has a basic idea of time travel.

This should be judged on its own though those interested can check the short story and see that the two are very different from each other. Anyway, I enjoyed this film when I first saw it years ago and enjoyed it while watching it at least two more times.

The two leads are very good, including Jennifer Jason Leigh whose usual roles might make you surprised to see her as a Civil War-era woman pressured to marry but wants to keep her independence. With a bit of magic, she is able to write to someone in the present day.

The current day correspondent creates Civil War themed role playing games or some such thing! He's planning to be married himself but there are complications. The two fall in love.

There are few twists and things do not happen quite as you might suspect. I found the whole thing charming with the main roles well played.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great Seller and a very good movie!

I had originally seen 'The Love Letter' many years ago and loved it, so I was very happy when I found it for sale here on Amazon! It's a favourite of mine, as well as 'Somewhere In Time'. They're both great movies about time travel.

Just bare in mind that this is an older movie, so the picture quality isn't going to be perfect, like the movies of today.

The Seller shipped it right away and it arrived in good time. Also, it was carefully packaged and therefore was in perfect condition. The Seller also provided tracking and even attached a friendly note to the front of the movie, telling me to let them know if I had any problems with it. They also stated they hoped I would enjoy it! I thought that was a very nice gesture! The disc played perfectly fine, so I'm very happy with my purchase!. I also wouldn't hesitate to buy from this Seller again in the future.

I had this film on video years ago and loved it, so pleased to see it now on DVD region 2 at last. I did pay more than several others say they paid but still think it is worth it. One of the other reviewers said she was unhappy because it wasn't in English but it is, there are options of Danish, Swiss and Swedish which do come up first but just go into main menu and press play for the English version.

First saw this on channel 5 year ago.
When it finally came out on region 2 and at the great price of £8, i grabbed at the chance to own it.
Classic tale of love crossing space and time, and a happy ending to boot.
What could be better then settling on the sofa with your girlfriends, some wine and chocolate and get swept away in the possibilities of love conquering all.
Would recommend to all those who love a good old fashioned romance.

I don't like weird movies. When I read the storyline of this movie, I hesitated to buy it, even though my husband and I are fans of Hallmark Hall of Fame movies. I thought it might be weird. I'm so glad I decided to give it a try. It has become one of my favorite romance movies. The writer manages to weave the lives of a man and a woman together across time, as they lived over 100 years apart. The story is fascinating and intriguing. How can this happen? How will it end? Clean. No profanity. Good acting. Wonderful love story.

My ultimate favorite movie of all "times". Soul mates, past lives, parallel lives, love story.... beautifully executed on film.... my only suggestion would be to turn the volume up during the last 5 minutes of the movie, because, for some reason, it's lower at the end of the movie than any other time during the movie. And there are key pieces to the conversation that you don't want to miss as it ties the whole movie together into a beautifully produced masterpiece.
