Maud Bailey, a brilliant English academic, is researching the life and work of poet Christabel La Motte. Roland Michell is an American scholar in London to study Randolph Henry Ash, now best-known for a collection of poems dedicated to his wife. When Maud and Roland discover a cache of love letters that appear to be from Ash to La Motte, they follow a trail of clues across England, echoing the journey of the couple over a century earlier.

Loved this film, it was quite heartwarming, good to see a film that isn’t based on violence and CGI special effects of blowing things up, it was very sweet and genteel

I managed to watch the first 25 minutes. But I had to turn it off, before I bored myself to death. Maybe it will get better, and I heard, the ending is great. Maybe it's just not my genre.

>"There's no such thing as poets anymore." I didn't know this was based off of a book when I watched this. I can now see why it feels like they crammed a lot of story into a small timeframe. A little on the boring side but Gwyneth Paltrow is pretty good.

Kind of comfort food for romance-dramas. The film features fine performances and good chemistry between Paltrow and Eckhart. I've seen this one a few times over the years and still find it enjoyable. **3.5/5**
