"Message in a Bottle" (1999) PG-13

Based on Nicholas Sparks's best-selling novel, director Luis Mandoki's romantic drama explores the possibility of love amid heartache. Newspaper researcher Theresa Osborne (Robin Wright Penn) finds a letter in a bottle penned by grieving shipbuilder Garret Blake (Kevin Costner), who writes to ease the pain of his wife's death. Carrying her own emotional baggage, Theresa tracks him down -- but their growing attraction is endangered by their pasts.

This is such a heart-rending, yet beautiful love story. I did not want the ending to be the way it was, though! My heart really went out to Garret in his suffering.
