YES, this book contains the love letters that were in the Sex and the City movie. The book that was in the movie does not exist, but this edition has the letters from the movie, plus MANY more. Furthermore, this is the only edition that contains the Beethoven letter in its original language as read in the movie, not modernized. It also includes a complete Table of Contents and superior formatting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulously Beautiful Love Letters, July 26, 2008

By 

Moira Bennett - See all my reviews

This review is from: Love Letters of Great Men and Women From The Eighteenth Century To The Present Day (Paperback)

Great collection of beautiful love letters from famous men and women. I wish men would still write letters like this. The book itself is a beautiful package with graceful fonts, and I was thrilled to see that this edition is not rephrased versions of the originals but it is the exact words written by the famous people, such as:

Ever Thine
Ever Mine
Ever Ours

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply Amazing, July 2, 2008

This review is from: Love Letters Of Great Men And Women: From The Eighteenth Century To The Present Day (Paperback)

Like most I bought this book because I assumed is was the one from the Sex and the City movie. I don't think it is, but it's an amazing book all the same. The authors' writing is so beautiful, and the choice of letters reveal so much about the historical figures that wrote them.
I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance and artful writing. I'm sure this will be a book I read over and over.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Love Letters in a Beautiful Book, August 27, 2008

By 

Katie Lieber - See all my reviews

This review is from: Love Letters of Great Men and Women From The Eighteenth Century To The Present Day (Paperback)

Wonderful collection of love letters. The book itself is beautiful with the old fashioned quill and rose on the front cover. The interior is just as pretty. The names appear to be calligraphy, but it's regular print.

I was especially excited to see the letters are the originals. They are not put in modern terms.

I'm going to have to order another one since my friend borrowed it and she won't bring it back to me.
