  Bruce Weber is a professed animal lover and this film centres on his own dogs a family of gorgeous golden retrievers including True. A Letter To True is a stunning look at the affection loyalty and unconditional love displayed by these animals - which the filmmaker sees as a metaphor for peace and hope in the world. In a highly personalised commentary Weber interweaves his personal obsessions: music of the 50's and 60's home movies of Dirk Bogarde in Provence; conversations with Elizabeth Taylor (another great dog lover) recollections of friendships past and speculation about how our lives have been changed by the events of 9/11. Tying these various stranda together with a poet's logic A Letter To True is a little like staying up late with Bruce Weber listening to great music and peeking into the mind of a world class connoisseur.
