"Steven Weber andiLaura Linney turniin touching, convincing andicharming performances." - David Mermelstein, Variety
Oscar nominee Laura Linney (Mystic River) and Steven Weber (Leaving Las Vegas) star in this charming screen adaptation of A.R. Gurney's internationally-acclaimed stage hit, a heartfelt look at love, life and friendship, directed by the legendary Stanley Donen (Singin' In the Rain).
Andy is a serious, down-to-earth attorney. Melissa is a lively, free-spirited artist. But these two opposites have a definite attraction. They are childhood friends who share a lifetime of experiences through a voluminous series of letters and notes. Poignant, romantic and frequently funny, their correspondence follows a bittersweet path of boarding schools, marriage children, divorce and missed opportunities. It's the life journey of two soul mates - enacted through words both written and unsaid - who share the greatest gift of all: the gift of love.
