Letters begins with the crash of a U.S. mail plane. One year later, cheerful postman
Henry Jones delivers the long-delayed letters. These overdue missives profoundly affect the lives of (a) a man who's deserted his wife; (b) a woman anxious to break up her daughter's romance; and (c) a pianist who'd sell his soul for success. The guest star roster of this TV movie includes
John Forsythe,
Jane Powell,
Lesley Ann Warren,
Ida Lupino,
Ben Murphy,
Pamela Franklin, and
Leslie Nielsen. Both
Letters and its sequel Letters From Lost Lovers (1973) were intended as pilot films for a never-sold TV anthology series. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
