Letters to Juliet sticks to a straightforward romance plot with realistic character motivations. There’s no forced identity politics or overemphasis on diversity for its own sake. Characters are developed primarily through their personalities and actions, not through identity markers. The film prioritizes story and personal growth over ideology, making it a refreshingly non-woke experience by today’s standards.

The film leans into traditional values, focusing heavily on themes like love, family, and reconciliation across generations. Masculinity and femininity are represented in classic romantic terms, and the narrative even celebrates long-standing European customs. There’s little, if any, cultural revisionism or undermining of traditional foundations.

There’s no overt villainization of traditional values and no agenda-driven portrayal of alternative worldviews; in fact, alternative or non-traditional perspectives are barely present. The film’s worldview is fairly universal and non-political.
