The Letter Writer

I'm not one of those guys who use to write reviews or something, but this movie put another perspective on me. It's like when you can't find way to home an then appear someone who will never rest until not helping you. In its simpleness, The Letter Writer will connect you with that part most people think they lost and that's great because I was one of them and now... I know what I want to be, I know what roads I want to walk and I know... I'm not alone. This movie can save lives, even for people who think there's nothing good in the world. In my opinion, people don't understand things for themselves, so it's necessary to make things easier for them, like this movie does. The Letter Writer is an ESPIRITUAL movie (not religious - people use to confuse both terms), where all broken parts of your soul and heart can be fixed. This movie got the key of life. All depends on you.

If you don't watch another movie anytime soon, I encourage you to watch this film. This movie could melt a stone. You cannot watch this and not take anything useful away with you. It will touch your heart.

All the actors in this movie did a superb job. If you liked Pay it Forward, you'll love this movie. We all need something like this now and then. Watch it today. You'll be glad you did.

The young girl, Maggie, did a wonderful job. The power of her emotions is staggering.

Sam, aka Bernie Diamond, was simply amazing. We are blessed that he lived long enough to complete the film. He passed away shortly after its completion at the age of 89.

The older folks from the nursing home were heartwarming, to say the least. Again, please take some time and watch this film.

Wow, what beautiful uplifting and thoughtful education of how to be kind and worthy and live a life to be proud of how you treat others. Very worthwhile movie to watch. Aley Underwood realy shines and her voice is angelic. She is very believable character and her coming of age realization of learning how to treat others and make a positive difference in life. Bernie Diamond plays a great teacher of life's lessons passing onto younger generations of how to be kind and worthy. In this day of negativity and hatred, this movie really resonates of what society needs to learn. I highly recommend this movie and how Aley continues her journey.

Reviews for The Letter Writer are seriously divided, I'm guessing depending on the lens through which the film was viewed. We all want well-done films with exceptional actors, music etc. My guess is that the low ratings are from viewers who put emphasis on that, while positive ratings are from viewers who put more emphasis on the message.

It's a slow paced watch with nearly all the focus on the message. I'm not one for karma type thinking - what you give comes back to you and so on. But I strongly believe in doing one's best to have a positive impact on those around us, regardless of whether or not we're rewarded.

Few of us would be able think of a specific talent to use on behalf of others, but we all have the capacity for kindness. I've had some pretty low days as most of us have, and there have been many days when I felt encouraged by a stranger who gave me a kind smile. Sure, "be kind" is cliché and kinda corny but it's easy and you never know how big an impact it can have on others.

You watch lots and lots of movies, sometimes you look for good action, drama and even a good horror flick, but once in a while you come across a movie by chance that has the ability to touch in such loving way that you would have not imagined before pressing that Play button. The movie story begins when a rebellious young girl receives a heartwarming letter from an unknown source and the changes which follows in her life and people around her thereafter. THIS IS NOT A COMING OF AGE FILM BUT IS AN SPIRITUAL (non-religious) AWAKING FILM. The beauty of this film lies in its simplicity and its scripted in such gentle way that is very or may even impossible to find any pretentious message in the film. Its centers on how words can heal or hurt people and how we are carelessly use them among one another. It reminds us the power of receiving a hand written letter from a friend or family member in a way that no email, text, or twitter message can begin to encompass.

You will be hard not to cry in several scenes in this movie. I honestly believe this was a labor of love and all were involve in this project must have been touched personally.

There is no violence, vulgarity, etc. in this film and people of all ages can enjoy this movie. Highly recommend if you want a wonderful lullaby of a film
