Message in a Bottle
A woman finds a romantic letter in a bottle washed ashore while she was jogging. Moved by the message written on the piece of paper, she uses all her resources including that of the Chicago paper, where she also works to find the author. When she finally tracks him down, the man turns out to be a shipbuilder, widowed early on their marriage, they felt something for each other. Slowly, they both grew deeper in love, but the man struggles to make peace with his past and move on with his life.
