Life changing movie

Rating: 10/10 (1 June 2006)

When I first watched this movie it was late one night, around one, on the TV. I wasn't sure what it was about but I thought from the title that it would be another soppy love chick flick, I was dead wrong. This movie shocked me to the core. I expected my happy ending and unfortunately didn't get one but it was satisfying all the same. The story starts off as a typical chick flick always does, the cool guy of the school and the nerdy and geeky girl have to hang out for some reason such as she has to teach him, in this case they have to run lines together for a drama class. As they spend more and more time together they fall in love, deeply in love. The girl is deeply religious and we don't find out why until later. A few days or weeks, it isn't specified, into the relationship the girl tells the boy that she's dying. Hints are given during the film by the girls father but it isn't really recognised until now. The girl slowly starts to die from leukaemia and it's heart breaking but the boy stays by her side all the same. They get married and then she passes away. The last few lines of the movie are beautiful, they are :"Jamie saved my life. She taught me everything. About life, hope and the long journey ahead. I'll always miss her. But our love is like the wind. I can't see it, but I can feel it." The End.
