There are 3 movies in Marathi Language (A prominent language in India), which are related to Postcards or Letters…

3 Lapandaav - This movie is not related to Postcards but Letters (Love Letters !). The whole movie is based out of the confusion created by the love letters written by a lover to his love interest. The letters are without names or signatures instead there are cryptic symbols (3 X, 3 hearts )

That’s so cool, I love Samuel West.
While I don’t know if there were any actual scenes with postcards in Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel, a short film about the making of the movie describes how set designers for the film researched The Library of Congress’ collection of photochrome postcards from the 20’s and 30’s for ideas on which to model both some of the movie’s sets and its overall color scheme.

A scene from one of Gordon Ramsay’s “Kitchen Nightmare” episodes. I don’t think Mr. Ramsay would be the type to send someone a cute dog postcard.

In the new Around The World In 80 Days, Phineas Fogg (played by David Tennant) receives a postcard right at the beginning of episode one. When he packs to travel, he adds it to a stack of other postcards, which he looks through at times of heightened emotion, such as on the steps of the Gare du Nord at the time of (or just after) the Paris commune.
