Aspergers
editIn the film, Daniel has Asperger's syndrome.[1] Does he have Asperger's syndrome in the book too? Bib (talk) 14:10, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- He doesnt have aspergers in the book though 77.96.48.193 (talk) 22:04, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the information. Here are some quotes I've found about the Asperger's syndrome, from some interviews and film articles: "he’s got Asperger's syndrome, and to be funny without laughing at that syndrome was sort of the challenge that Richard had" "It may have been insensitive to approach a grieving widow so soon, but that's part of the Asperger's Syndrome." "That’s the whole point of Asperger's. It wasn’t soon in his mind. He just doesn’t pick up on the social etiquette that normally occurs when people meet"[2] "I talked to [director] Richard [LaGravenese] about whether this guy did or didn’t have it, and I came to the conclusion that he did. I just kind of based it on what I’d read about it."[3] "He doesn't hold back his feelings because he has Asperger's syndrome, a condition that can lead a person to blurt out whatever is on his mind and be unusually impaired in social situations."[4] Bib (talk) 22:35, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Edit 10-24-13
editI made some changes to the plot to make it more accurate. I wanted to compare it to the book, but I would have been extremely negative in any comment about the book. The author's idea of the plot was exceptional in the aspect of showing how letters (The List) from the deceased husband to his grieving widow helped bring her through the deep depression in her grieving process. However, the film was much better in every aspect of telling the story. Loverofromanticfilms (talk) 13:02, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
Edits 8-22-08
editI streamlined the overly detailed plot. I removed the section comparing the film to the book because it didn't meet any of the the guidelines found at [5]. I added some production and soundtrack details, critical reviews, and categories. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 17:19, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
- I also removed insignificant external links (such as MySpace) and external links that are listed under references. 209.247.22.164 (talk) 17:22, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Does anyone know what the name of the song is, that is played at Jerry's funeral? It appears to be a Irish folk/rock —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.167.47.101 (talk) 08:19, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
Film Title
editSomeone stated the film title is from the Beatles PS I Love You - but and the end of the movie they played a song with that title that was definitely NOT the Beatles. Is this sourced?
Plagiarism?
editThe story of this film and the novel is extremely similar to a 1997 Korean film called "The Letter". Is there any evidence that Ahern plagiarized the story for her 2004 novel?

Irish
editIn an interview with Movies.ie Gerard Butler apologizes for his Irish accent, at about the 4 minute mark. I haven't included this in the article because two sources from the Irish Times criticizing his accent and [http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/theticket/2007/1221/1197997106588.html the film) are stuck beyind a Paywall. -- 109.77.175.76 (talk) 22:32, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Song
editIsn’t this a Beatles song? RedLeader98 (talk) 03:41, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, there is a Beatles song of the same name, and an older song with the same name and many other things with the same title too. -- 109.79.75.32 (talk) 01:59, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
