''Letters to Juliet'' is a 2010 romantic drama starring [[Amanda Seyfried]] and Chris Egan, Vanessa Redgrave and [[Django|Franco Nero]]. It is the tale of Sophie, a young American who travels
One letter dated 1957 falls out from behind a brick and describes how a young British girl, Claire, left her lover, Lorenzo Bartolini, waiting under their tree and went back to England. Sophie replies to Claire which inspires Claire to travel to Italy in search of her long-lost love (dragging along her grandson Charlie). The three of them set off on a trip round Tuscany to find all the men named Lorenzo Bartollini. She will know the right one by his eyes. Sophie hopes to write an article on it for her magazine and earn a promotion to writer as she is only a fact-checker.

▲* [[Based On a True Story]]: The Secretaries of Juliet are real and paid by the city of Verona.

* [[Disposable Fiance]]: Victor, naturally.
* [[Fake Brit]]: Chris Egan playing Charlie is Australian.
* [[Identical Grandson]]: The two Lorenzos at the end are said to be identical.

* [[
* [[Jerkass]]: Maybe he didn't mean to be but due to having [[Cloudcuckoolander|his head in the clouds]], Victor neglects Sophie throughout the movie and it is mainly for this reason that he becomes a [[Disposable Fiance]].
* [[Kissing Cousins]]: Averted, but it does lead to a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]].
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]:
{{quote|
* [[Missing Mom]]: Sophie has one.

* [[
* [[Real Life Relative]]: Loranzo and Claire broke up, married other people, reunited and married in real life.

* [[Shipper
* [[Shout
* [[Trailers Always Spoil]]: Have you seen the trailer? If so, you probably don't need to see the movie but you should anyway.
