Holly Kennedy is beautiful, smart and married to the love of her life - a passionate, funny, and impetuous Irishman named Gerry. So when Gerry's life is taken by an illness, it takes the life out of Holly. The only one who can help her is the person who is no longer there. Nobody knows Holly better than Gerry. So it's a good thing he planned ahead. Before he died, Gerry wrote Holly a series of letters that will guide her, not only through her grief, but in rediscovering herself. The first message arrives on Holly's 30th birthday in the form of a cake, and to her utter shock, a tape recording from Gerry, who proceeds to tell her to get out and "celebrate herself". In the weeks and months that follow, more letters from Gerry are delivered in surprising ways, each sending her on a new adventure and each signing off in the same way; P.S. I Love You. Holly's mother and best friends begin to worry that Gerry's letters are keeping Holly tied to the past, but in fact, each letter is pushing her further into a new future. With Gerry's words as her guide, Holly embarks on a journey of rediscovery in a story about marriage, friendship and how a love so strong can turn the finality of death into a new beginning for life.

Love is all around us. And that's certainly true for all of these people. John and Just Judy have fallen in love with each other while on the set of an erotically charged film. David has just become the new Prime Minister. The second he steps into his office/home, he is smitten with Natalie, his catering manager who had already screwed up at the first minute. David's sister is Karen, who's married to Harry, who runs a local magazine. Harry is somewhat smitten by his secretary, Mia, who is constantly hitting on him. Harry's best editor is Sarah, who has a brother in the asylum and a not-so-hidden crush on Karl, who has a thing for her as well. Karen is friends with both Daniel (Liam Neeson), who has just lost his wife and has discovered that his stepson is in love with a young American girl, and Jamie, whose girlfriend has just left him for his younger and more attractive brother, forcing him to move to France to continue writing his novel while falling for Aurelia, a young Portuguese woman who can't speak a lick of English or French. Juliet has just married Peter, not realizing that his best friend Mark has loved her since they first met. Colin is desperate to have sex and believes that in order to do that, he should travel to Wisconsin because he thinks that American women will dig him for being British. And Billy Mack, an old rocker who is climbing back up the charts after battling his old heroin addiction, is on the radio and TV shows either bad-mouthing his new CD, insulting his manager, Joe, or a hot new boy band, or calling Britney Spears the worst sex he's ever had. Are you still following along?
Kate Forster is moving out from her lake house, built all of it with glass. She is a doctor and has just begin to work in a hospital in Chicago, moving to a new flat in the center of the city. Alex Wyler is the new owner of the lake house, a young architect who's working in the construction of a new complex of houses at the city skirts. Alex and Kate are maintaining a correspondence, talking about the house matters, sending each other letters, which are put in the lake house's letter box. But a strange thing is happening, because both of them find out that the letter box is working as a kind of time communication channel, between the year 2004, where Alex's living, and 2006, the year that Kate's actually living. After sending each other many letters talking about their lives, and Kate talking to Alex about how life will be in two years, it seems like they're falling in love each other. But maybe they will never meet each other, because of the time distance. Nevertheless, Kate comes up with a memory from 2004, when she forgot a book in a train station, Jane Austen's "Persuasion", and she'll ask Alex to go to that place in that precise moment, when she lost the book. Maybe the future of Kate is about to change, when Alex decides to meet Kate's other self in the past, despite the fact that she has a boyfriend. They will learn that playing with time could be a little bit dangerous for both of them, but Alex will take everything into his hands to finally meet Kate in the future. Written by Alejandro Frias
10 Things I Hate About You is a 1999 American romantic comedy film. It is directed by Gil Junger and stars Julia Stiles, Heath Ledger, Larisa Oleynik, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Larry Miller. A loose adaptation of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew set in a modern American high school, the screenplay was written by Karen McCullah Lutz and Kirsten Smith. The movie's title is a twist on The Taming of the Shrew (see below) but is also a reference to a poem written by the film's female lead to describe her bittersweet romance with the male lead. The film was released March 31, 1999 and was a breakout success for stars Stiles and Ledger.
The movie centers on a new student, Cameron James (Joseph Gordon-Levitt). Cameron develops a crush on Bianca Stratford (Larisa Oleynik), but he is informed by his new friend Michael Eckman (David Krumholtz) that Bianca can't date until her older sister Kat (Julia Stiles) finds a boyfriend, a rule instituted by their overprotective father, Walter (Larry Miller). He and Michael set up an elaborate plan to find Kat a boyfriend in which they persuade a popular, rich student, who also has a crush on Bianca, Joey (Andrew Keegan), to pay an intimidating guy with a bad reputation to go out with Kat, leading Joey to believe that he will have Bianca when she is free to date.
Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger) seems like a good match for equally ill-tempered Kat. However, Kat resists his advances. Eventually she allows him to escort her to a party, so that Bianca too can go to the party. At the party, Cameron finds out that Bianca wanted to date Joey the entire time, while Kat gets drunk and must be cared for by Patrick. Bianca spends time with Joey at the party and realizes he is extremely vain and self-centered. Bianca catches up with Cameron before he leaves the party, and he ends up giving her a ride home. On the ride, Cameron yells at her for being selfish and toying with his emotions so she can date Joey, but she interrupts him with a kiss. Kat however, becomes angry with Patrick when he doesn't kiss her while she's drunk.
At this point, Patrick has fallen for Kat and tries to win her back, going so far as to pay the school band to accompany him while singing "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" in the football stadium. Joey pays for Patrick to take Kat to prom, though at first he is reluctant to take the money. Kat refuses to go to prom, thinking that Patrick has an ulterior motive. Bianca is upset that she can't go to prom. Kat reveals that after their mother left, she slept with Joey in a moment of distress, and was trying to protect her younger sister from making a similar mistake. She and Patrick go to the prom together, and Bianca goes with Cameron.
At the prom, Joey finds Patrick and expresses his anger that while he kept up his end of the bargain and paid Patrick to go out with Kat, Bianca ended up with Cameron instead. Kat hears this, and despite Patrick's attempts to explain, walks out on him. Joey confronts Cameron and punches him, only to be given a black eye by Bianca. The following school day, Kat reads her English assignment, an interpretation of Sonnet 141, aloud to the class, which includes Patrick. To apologize, Patrick buys Kat a guitar which she had been longing for, and they end up together.
