The Love Letter (1999)
First screened in May 2020
Director: Peter Ho-Sun Chan. Cast: Kate Capshaw, Tom Everett Scott, Tom Selleck, Ellen DeGeneres, Julianne Nicholson, Geraldine McEwan, Bill Buell, Blythe Danner, Gloria Stuart, Alice Drummond. Screenplay: Maria Maggenti (based on the novel by Cathleen Schine).

Twitter Capsule: "Romantic" "comedy" of the most inept, self-pandering kind. Sad, unless you laugh at it. Even light, music are bad.

VOR:   Even devoted fans, and I imagine there are few, are unlikely to make any claims for risk or invention. They might even like it for that reason?
