Plot: Named for one of director-photographer Bruce Weber's beloved golden retrievers, A LETTER TO TRUE is a cinematic essay--in the free-association style of Weber's CHOP SUEY (2001)--documenting his obsessions and concerns in a post-9/11 world with emphasis on the importance of canine companionship. Using a heartfelt, handwritten letter to the dog as a springboard, Weber begins the film with thoughts on his dismay over the terrorist attacks in New York, then transitions into his longtime fascination with actor Dirk Bogarde, who is seen in vintage home movies during the idyllic years he spent in Provence with his manager, Anthony Forwood. Next, Weber segues into early 1970's documentary footage of Life Magazine Vietnam War photojournalist Larry Burrows (who provided Weber with his earliest remembrances of war) and a series of references to his friend Elizabeth Taylor--whose presence is felt the strongest in a series of extended clips from her '46 film, THE COURAGE OF LASSIE. Cemented with Weber's trademark photography of his dogs running on the beach of their Montauk home, poignant readings from Julie Christie and Marianne Faithfull, and a string of songs by the likes of Brenda Lee, Blossom Dearie, and Jimmy Durante, these disparate elements add up to a whole that is likely to enchant
