Letters to Juliet (2010 Gary Winick)

Wet and floppy film set in touristy northern Italy (not in itself a bad thing), where everyone fortunately speaks English - unlike our male protagonist Christopher Egan (a Home and Away alumni, not that that in itself isn't necessarily a badge of dishonour), who has an accent all his own.

That Oliver Platt had his name removed from the project perhaps is down to Egan sinking it, though he must have read the script...

Amanda Seyfried, Vanessa Redgrave, Gael Garcia Bernal, Luisa Ranieri (Mrs Luca Zingaretti), Milena Vukotic (the sex mad letter-answerer, a Buñuel regular and - I thought I recognised her name from somewhere - the other night's Arabella), Fabio Testi ('Count' Lorenzo) and Franco Nero (the real Lorenzo).
