Movies are another man's way of expression. It is a language, just like architecture. It is also an artform, a creative output and is also based upon culture, tradition, life experiences and many others.
Letters to Juliet was a typical love story. What made it special was the setting which was Italy. Personally, I've been dreaming that one day I'll be able to go to Italy and experience their Culture, Architecture and more importantly...FOOD :>

Amanda Seyfried as Sophie
This movie was like a tour of Italy especially Verona. I never seemed to appreciate their architecture so much but now, I do. I love the landscapes, narrow streets, fountains, shops and the vibrant colors of the houses surrounding the place.

Seems like other movies have their feature on Architecture too..

The Mediterranean style is a style Italy has been known for all over the world. It is a character and an identity that makes the style theirs. It is amazing how Italians developed such a dominant style in architecture. They truly are one of a kind.
The windows are functional and adds a rustic touch in a structure.
The tegula roof tiles are also used here, not as beautiful as to how it looks in Italy :)
