An atmospheric and unsettling mix of European style and Hollywood muscle, this is a beautifully shot and thought-provoking film about lost love.

An atmospheric, romantic tale of unrequited love. I watched this late night on French TV and it has haunted me ever since. This is pure magic and created with careful attention to every shot. FIND IT AND WATCH IT!!!!

Curiously unrecognized movie, directed by the famous Max Ophuls. I'm not very fond of Zweig, but the way Ophuls bring to light the ambiguity of this romantic story is quiet extraordinary.

The most romantic film I have ever seen in my life. A masterpiece lighted and crafted to the final seam. Eat your heart out 'Sleepless in Seattle.'

Although not as charming as La Ronde, or as powerful as The Earrings of Madame de..., I believe that this is Ophuls greatest film. It perfectly captures that sense of longing and lost love that runs through many of Ophuls films, yet I find it more poigant than any of his other great films. Perhaps it is because I identify with Joan Fontaine's character more than any of the other characters in Ophuls films. Both Fontaine and Jordan seem to me to be maturely stunted characters. Foantaine holds on to a childish love that is doomed to fail, while Jordan seems to be acting with as much carelessness as a child. Yet, there is an innocence to these characters that seems rare for Ophuls characters. Madame de... naive, but hardly innocent. And certainly few of the characters in La Ronde can be considered so. And forget about Lola Montes. Ophus' sweeping camera movements and brilliant mise en scene lend to the romantic proceedings. Letter from an Unknown Woman is probably Ophus masteriece, a wonderful ode to unrequited, lost love.
