Details: Product Description Behind every great love is a great story. Two teenagers from opposite sides of the tracks fall in love during one summer together, but are tragically forced apart. When they reunite 7 years later, their passionate romance is rekindled, forcing one of them to choose between true love and class order. ---------- Atteinte de la maladie d'Alzheimer, Allie a tout oublié de sa vie. Chaque jour, Duke vient lui lire le récit de deux jeunes gens qui se sont passionnément aimés dans les années 40, avant que l'existence et les conventions ne les séparent. Si elle ne peut plus se souvenir, Alice peut encore ressentir, et la voix de Duke fait ressurgir le passé et une magnifique histoire d'amour. Ces mots, Allie les connaît, elle a parfois l'impression de les avoir déjà lus, de les avoir peut-être même écrits... Amazon.ca When you consider that old-fashioned tearjerkers are an endangered species in Hollywood, a movie like The Notebook can be embraced without apology. Yes, it's syrupy sweet and clogged with clichés, and one can only marvel at the irony of Nick Cassavetes directing a weeper that his late father John--whose own films were devoid of saccharine sentiment--would have sneered at. Still, this touchingly impassioned and great-looking adaptation of the popular Nicholas Sparks novel has much to recommend, including appealing young costars (Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams) and appealing old costars (James Garner and Gena Rowlands, the director's mother) playing the same loving couple in (respectively) early 1940s and present-day North Carolina. He was poor, she was rich, and you can guess the rest; decades later, he's unabashedly devoted, and she's drifting into the memory-loss of senile dementia. How their love endured is the story preserved in the titular notebook that he reads to her in their twilight years. The movie's open to ridicule, but as a delicate tearjerker it works just fine. Message in a Bottle and A Walk to Remember were also based on Sparks novels, suggesting a triple-feature that hopeless romantics will cherish. --Jeff Shannon Special Features 12 deleted scenes with optional Director commentary Audio Commentary with Director Nick Cassavetes Audio Commentary with Novelist Nicholas Sparks All in the Family: Nick Cassavetes Nicholas Sparks: A Simple Story, Well Told Southern Exposure: Locating The Notebook Casting Theatrical Trailer
