No Valentine's Day could ever be complete without the very best love story of all time...The Notebook.
After months of probing my boyfriend to watch this soppy love story, he agreed...and it nearly brought him to tears (just don't tell him I told you that!)
The Notebook is a remarkable story about the innocence of youth and the power of love. Noah is a blue-collared sawmill worker with street smarts and charisma. Allie comes from a white-collared family who is completely against the thought of their daughter falling in love with a labor worker. Against her family's will, Allie falls head over heels in love with Noah and the two start a summer fling that they both wish will never end.
By the end of the summer, after countless break-ups and make-ups, Allie's parents are determined to separate the two, moving Allie away from Noah, forcing Allie to say goodbye to Noah for what seems to be the last time. Noah promises to write, and after not hearing from him for a year, Allie moves on with her life and fins someone new.
On an amazing twist of fate, Allie and Noah somehow cross paths and their love affairs rekindles, much to the disliking of Allie's parents and her new fiancee. With a fiancee and an old love, Allie must decided which road she wants to take, and ultimately she chooses her first love.
The two get married, have children, and are starting to grow old together, when they find out that Allie has Alzheimer's disease which affects her memory. Feeling desperate, Allie writes the couples remarkable journey in a notebook, instructing Noah to read to her when her illness takes over her memory and she can no longer remember what they've shared.
Every moment of this movie will keep you on edge of your seat, leaving you begging for what will happen next. Although guys tend to hate soppy love stories such as The Notebook, they can't help but shed a tear for this beautiful love story, as my significant other has shown.
