Yes, apparently people from around the world write letters to Shakespeare's Juliet in Verona, asking for relationship advice.

That's the pretext for Amanda Seyfried's fledgling journalist to drive around rural Italy with Vanessa Redgrave – who appears to be a few trees short of an olive grove – and her grandson (Christopher Egan, awful), hoping to reunite Redgrave with her long lost beau. A vacuous, nauseating rom-com that's more likely to inspire hate mail.
