Sincerely, Yours, Truly

Sure it's a rip-off of You've Got Mail and all the others like it, but it was sweetly done. It begins with finding Josh's written love letters to his ex and then switches to online chat between the two. They managed to hold off either one discovering the other's true identity pretty long.

Natalie Hall has been growing on me after seeing her several times in Hallmark style movies more or less recently. She and Marshall Williams do have chemistry and they have plenty of contact throughout the movie both via the chat and as competitors for a grant.

I enjoyed the dialogue and there were some funny moments.

I loved pretty much everything about this movie. It's light and charming. I loved the personalities of the two main characters. They smile a lot which I really appreciate; there's enough negativity in the world. Films like these are why I enjoy chick flicks.

Embarrassing, dump the male lead. I don't understand how these "types" get cast as a romantic male lead. Well, actually I do understand. It was obvious. OMG, please dump whoever is casting these "losers." And dump the odd character selecting the male wardrobe for this movie. Uh, baby blue trousers with tan shoes and a dark belt? And a feminine baby blue sport coat with brown elbow patches? Really? OMG a second time. I made it 5 minutes before scratching my eyes out with the pain of watching this travesty of talent and taste. OMG a third time, man up and fire everybody involved in this abnormally sorry piece of garbage.

You can't send text messages to someone on your phone without knowing their cellphone number.

I admitt, I like it. For three motives:

• Marshall Williams is a good choice for a Prince Charming , vulnerable, some ironic and dedicated to the love of his life;
• Sherrz Miller who offers just a beautiful portrait of mother;
• the box with letters, the text messages, the garden activities and the gentle shadow of 1940 romance.

The only frustration - maybe the ignore of nice gardiner by Hayley ( a shorter and some realistic story ).

But, short, a nice film , not different by others , seductive for childhood memories, pizza and tiramisu, for the good intentions and competition, for Jen Pogue fair work and for dialogue between Marisol and Josh, good for be admirer of the motives of the first. So, nice.
