The breakdown:  A magic mailbox allows two people in two different years to fall in love with each other.


I absolutely love this movie.
At a secluded lake house on the shores of the Lake Michigan, a woman moves in and finds mail in her mailbox for someone who previousily lived there. 
Her trying to right this, ends up sending letters back in time by two years to the man who lived there before she did through her mailbox.
So this man, and this woman both live in the same house, only years apart.
Don't ask about the magic mailbox or how it exists, it's never explained, but regardless of this plot hole, the movie still works.  Trust me, if you can over this detail, you will enjoy this movie.
As the couple writes back and forth, they discover the time difference, and they discover each other.  One's a doctor, the other an architect and I think it's wonderful how the story unfolds between them.
She has a on again/off again boyfriend that she's not really into, he's always single and wants to meet her, in fact he's willing to wait two years for them to meet up somehow.
I don't want to reveal too much about the story because I love the chemistry between these two and the more you know, the less surprises there are for you.

See it and you'll understand!
4 out of 5 for on screen chemistry, an interesting story, and a love story worthy of losing yourself in.
