The Notebook

The Notebook

Behind true love is a great love story!

I found The Notebook, to be a sad yet happy movie! It is romantic and has become my favorite, actually. Every time I watch the film I want to cry. Each time I watch it, it's like watching the movie for the first time.

The mere thought of knowing or even finding someone like Noah who will
work as hard as he did to stay with the person he loved is just so touching! Aside from building Allie’s dream house, he definitely showed how committed he was to Allie by staying with her in the nursing home even when she didn’t recognize who he was. This showed true and unconditional love. In addition, the commitment was so strong, especially because Noah would not leave his home because he said she is his home.

Moreover, I would have to say that writing the letters everyday for a year and taking care of their lives when they were already old proved Noah had taken the role of caretaker. Accountability was shown through the many decisions the main characters made that lead to certain consequences. As for love, I think that what she did to the guy she was engaged to was bad. But it just shows that nothing can come between fate and true love.

Fate determined that Noah and Allie were meant to be together. Love was proven through the commitment they made to allow fate to take place. Allie risked breaking another man’s heart to be with Noah and Noah risked pride and machismo to make sure that Allie would be his.
