A letter to Juliette...

This is a nice movie
A touchy one
Tears came across out of my control
Guess i've long long time never been so touched and emo after watching a movie.

A quote that still running in my mind
"if he is your true love before and i believe he is still the true love now" in the letter from Sophie to Claire. This statement encouraged Claire finds her true love after 50 years later. Claire never give up after meeting many Lorenzo Bartolinis but none of them seem to be the right one, as Claire says she’ll be able to see who Lorenzo is through his blue eyes. Amazing huh..Ofcos, Claire found her long lost love at last and the two reunite in a heartfelt embrace.

To me..exactly..i wish to visit VERONA..and ofcos Casa di Giulietta..haha..when my dream can come true ??

Casa di Giulietta
Juliet's purported balcony, in Verona. Beneath it, on the walls, there are love letters.

In Verona, a house claiming to be the Capulets' has been turned into a tourist attraction. It features the balcony, and in the small courtyard, a bronze statue of Juliet. It is one of the most visited sites in the town. The metal of its chest is worn bare due to a legend that if a person strokes the breast of the statue, that person will have good fortune.

Many people write their names and the names of their beloved ones on the walls of the entrance, known as Juliet's wall. Many believe that writing on that place will make their love everlasting. After a restoration and cleaning of the building, it was intended that further writing should be on replaceable panels or white sheets placed outside the wall.

It is also a tradition to put small love letters on the walls (which is done by the thousands each year), which are however regularly taken down by employees to keep the courtyard clean.
