    Dear Rachel
    I saw you in the movie "The Mummy" for the first time. I saw three movies of you: The mummy, Constanteen, and beautiful creatures. I can not forget you because you remind me a lady whom I met her when I was very young. I do not know how to decsribe it, but I feel deep emotion in my heart. I want to say that I like your movies and your skills. I wish you the best and sorry for my poor English.
