I don’t normally watch a lot of movies, but this summer I seem to be catching up on all the ones I’ve missed, and even seen a number of the ones in the theater. Today, thanks to Starz, I finally watched The Notebook. Oh my goodness. I think I cried through half the movie. It was so good. And so sad. And so sappy. And so sweet. And just so … I don’t know. Man. My eyes are still puffy, hours after I watched it. I feel so drained. It is on the TiVo right now and if I thought I could handle it twice in one day, I would watch it again.
Yes, that good. Watch it, but be sure to have a box of Kleenex handy.

Dude I know. I did the OUT LOUD crying, I cried so hard I started laughing. I love that movie, and was so surprised about that.
I really didn’t think I would like it. As it started this afternoon, I almost turned it off to watch something else. Then, before I knew it, I was sucked in. Man, that was a good movie.
So I wasn’t the only one then? Good to know. 😉
Well, I left a comment earlier…but I don’t know what happened to it. 🙁
I really like Nicholas Sparks, but as for the movies, this is the only one I have liked so far. Message in a Bottle wasn’t good as a movie at all, though I loved the book. I also loved The Long Walk, but refused to watch the movie b/c of how Message in a Bottle turned out. I cried reading The Notebook & watching the movie.
I’ve never read any of his books – I didn’t even realize that “Message in a Bottle” was written by him originally. Now I need to go back and read “The Notebook” – although I’m not sure if I can handle it emotionally…
I agree…a great movie indeed! I would watch it over and over again. I cried for most of it too!
omg! omg! i know, i luv luv luv that movie. me and my three friends watched it , and we cried so hard, u’d a thought some one died.i totally agree with you, its soo..everything, emotional and romantic but so sad and so true. my grampa died of alztimer’s disease, and it really gave u a peak inside their worlds. i dont think i’ve cried that hard in a while, cept for finding neverland and a walk to remeber. amazing movie. really.
I love and adore that movie. It is one of the few that I can sit and watch over and over and over and over… To only have such a love… /sigh. 🙂
i was in the theater when i saw it and it was a sobfest – seriously, you could even hear men asking their spouses/girlfriends for tissues…. it was crazy. good movie. loved it.
