Comment:

When Hiroko Watanabe come to Hokkaido and meet Ms. Itsuki Fujii by chance, Hiroko Watanabe find that they look like the same…
Hiroko Watanabe want to know more about her fiancé Mr. Itsuki Fujii, she sent a camera to Ms Itsuki Fujii and wish her to
take some photos about Mr. Itsuki old school. Ms. Itsuki went to the old school, her teacher brings her to the library, the students
who were librarian were so supervised that Itsuki Fujii comes to visit them. It is because many years ago, Mr. Itsuki always borrows
many books those are not so popular. He wrote his name on the record cards. Therefore, the student think the name on the
record card are Itsuki Fujii (female).
In fact, Itsuki Fujii and Itsuki Fujii was librarian too. It was because their classmates love to play trick on them basin on their
name are the same. When the classmates voting on the librarians, they wrote “Itsuki Fujii♀ love Itsuki Fujii♂”.Also, he works
nothing in the library because he just read. He also play tricks on she,Just like, when they riding on their bicycle, he may paper
bad to cover her head. Therefore, she hates Itsuki Fujii.

her home to return that book to her. When the students pack the record card out and gave it to she, they said, “turn the card around!”
and she was surprised because she found that here is asketch that draw by Mr. Itsuki Fujii. The sketch is about a girl. That girl is
herself, Itsuki Fujii!
From this wonderful movie, I know that a man not easy to love a woman for a long years. It is because Mr. Itsukiloves Ms Itsuki in
those years although he meets Hiroko Watanabe. I really love this film so much. My first time to watch this movie is in my primary five;
I still remember that is on fifteen of February, Valatie night.
This film is not mush people to know, maybe the name of the film “Love Letter”. Some people may think that it is about some
letter of love between a couple. But, no! The love letter in this movie is not a couple, is about Hiroko Watanabe and Ms. Itsuki, their
letter all are about Mr. Itsuki. Therefore, the love letter is start to sent.
“Love letter” is from Japan, some people always think Japan movie all are boring, of cause no! They haven’t watch
“My robot girlfriend”, “You give my summer” “God, please give me one more time”, “ The goodness belong to me only”
and so on. Also, some of the movie from other place is really fantastic, like, “Somewhere in time”. It is so famous! I know one of our
schoolteacher always loves “Somewhere in time” so much.
