The Last Letter from Your Lover

"The formula is engrossing enough, and its midcentury vintage appeal - the pillbox hats, headscarves and swanky soirees - is particularly seductive."

"Across the film, director Augustine Frizzell balances a dynamic aesthetic energy with a generosity of spirit."

"A double-decker romance that sighs, squeals and fitfully delivers."

"There's something subliminally enjoyable about it."

"Not quite a charming romcom and not nearly the sweeping romance it thinks it is, the film finds an airless middle ground..."

"Endearing and consuming, but by no means surprising..."

"Odd-choice director Augustine Frizzell brings chic visual style to this otherwise generically watchable, timeline-crossing romance."

"The whole production is undeniably pleasant but also a little lazy, with dialogue that sags under heavy exposition."

"At best, it’s a suitable companion piece to the novel; at worst, it’s a lackluster feature bolstered only briefly by flashes of real human emotion."

"If you are in the mood for ... soapy melodrama with enough glamorous glow to keep you from thinking too hard, then The Last Letter From Your Lover might do the trick."

"A film of exquisite and pristine tragedy."
