The past will connect them. The passion will possess them.
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.

JPV852
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**
