The Notebook

[Nikki]

Good, Good, GOOD movie. Have the tissues handy. I cried like crazy during this movie. It's a very bittersweet love story and something that could so easily happen.

As a man (Garner) reads from a faded notebook to the woman (Rowlands) he regularly visits, his words bring to life the story of a couple (Gosling and McAdams) who are separated by World War II, then passionately reunited 7 years later, after they have taken different paths. Though her memory has faded, his words give her the chance to relive her turbulent youth and the unforgettable love they shared.

Trust me...just rent it! BTW....there was no nudity in it and I think maybe one or 2 cuss words. The closest it came to showing nudity was showing the girls bare back.

Just watched it!
I liked it, haven't seen a good love story like that in a long time. Yeah, in the end it was bittersweet.

:smt078 I had to watch this with my wife. She loved it and said that I would really like it too. "It's not bad for a love story", she tells me.... :smt078

She owes me now. I'm going to have to make her watch Predator vs Alien with me or something

Destiny,

See, I told you it was good! I thought it was excellent and will probably buy it. It's hard to find a good love story like that.


Mhess,

Awww....you know you liked it! Don't fight the feelings!

My wife "encouraged" me to go see this with her, but I must admit that the movie was terrific. The ending was a little formulaic, but it had me using the old "dirt in my eye" excuse as we left the theater.
