The feeling left when I watched “Love letter” is something unclear, cannot explicit express, but so nostalgia and evocative. By using the very gorgeous cinematography that wrenches my heart, together with a plot based on a successful novel, the film really deserves to stand among the best romance movies of all time. There’s some really striking landscape like the white snow field at the beginning. And I read some others’ comments about this movie, they also thought that the music is also one score. To me, I was not impressive much in the music, but I like the “love story”  and “small happiness” piano playing. The last scene keeps lasting in my mind for a long time. Every time, I close my eyes and try to imagine how that scene happened, it comes vigorously and vividly and the small happiness melody comes so magic. That also the scene makes me cry. I cried when the female lead realized how much her past classmate loved her, and she suddenly burst into tears. Some people think that this movie has many contrived coincidences, such as the two female protagonists look like each other or the lead male and female has the same name. But even though I admit that fact, the story is still so so moving and depict a very touching love story without the need of using any sexual action, even no kiss. ( actually there’s one kiss scene, but it belongs to the sub-pilot ) But though lacking all of the normal elements for a romance, this movie still proves how beauty a real platonic love is and wrenches the watchers’ hearts by just simple but not boring love.

The female lead needs to perform dual characters, and she did in an amazing way that makes me so admired. Furthermore, as I read in some documents that she was not a professional actor but a pop star, that makes I adore her more.

In conclusion, I give this movie 10 out of 10 scale, because I cannot find any reason to give less. It’s really an aesthetic and unforgettable movie about the love and its untainted meaning.
