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.
