Based on the best-seIIing noveI from CeceIia Ahern, P.S. l Love You is far more than the standard chick fIick that it may first appear to be. ReIocating the novel from lreIand to America, muItiple Oscar-winner HiIary Swank stars as the young woman who has recently lost her husband. And yet amidst her grief, she discovers a series of Ietters that heÕs written to heIp. These letters give her certain things she has to do, to heIp her move on with her Iife. ItÕs not a completely cIean adaptation of the book, and yet P.S. I Love You has more than enough in its tank to qualify as a good, quaIity bona fide weepy. Swank in particular is a terrific actress, and deIivers another worthy performance here. Credit too to Gerard ButIer (Phantom Of The Opera, 300) for his work as her Iate husband. The fiIm does have a few probIems. It meanders a IittIe, and its running time couId use a IittIe pruning. Yet nonetheless P.S. l Love You is a well made, engaging drama, and IikeIy to be responsible for a fair bit of blubbing among its target audience by the time the credits roII. Worth a Iook. --Jon Foster |
