The Notebook

Tuesday, August 11, 2009

Watched this movie online during the National Day holidays.
This movie was 1st released in 2004.
A typical but touching love story.

The movie focuses on an old man reading a story to an old woman in a nursing home.
The story he reads follows two young lovers named Allie Hamilton and Noah Calhoun,
who meet one evening at a carnival and they fell in love eventually.
But they are separated by Allie's parents who dissaprove of Noah's unwealthy family, and move Allie away. After waiting for Noah to write her for several years, Allie meets and gets engaged to a handsome young soldier named Lon. Allie, then, with her love for Noah still alive, stops by Noah's 200-year-old home that he restored for her, "to see if he's okay". It is evident that they still have feelings for each other, and Allie has to choose between her fiancé and her first love.

Then the movie went back to the present and we finally know the reason why the old man
is reading to the old woman and also what happens in the end to the old man and woman.
