Love Letters is a 1945 American romantic film noir directed by William Dieterle from a screenplay by Ayn Rand, based on the novel Pity My Simplicity by Christopher Massie. It stars Jennifer Jones, Joseph Cotten, Ann Richards, Cecil Kellaway, Gladys Cooper and Anita Louise. In Italy, during World War II, Alan writes eloquent letters for his fellow soldier, Roger, to Victoria—who falls in love with the letters. Roger marries Victoria and then dies.
