Has yet to be topped

Rating: 10/10 (24 June 2013)

The Notebook is, by all accounts, the greatest love story of all time. I have yet to see anyone top this movie in terms of romance. It is a necessary date night/Valentines Day/anniversary movie to remind us all that true love can yet be imperfect and in fact does exist. When I saw this in theaters, I was crying very hard. At the time, I was NOT a person who cried during movies (that is completely opposite now). Its not just about the way it makes you cry though, it teaches anyone a deep lesson about how even the greatest love has flaws and that it has to be worked on every single day, and is always worth it in the end. I can't imagine that this movie will ever be outdone in this century, and I firmly believe that it is the new Gone With The Wind...minus the extra 2 hours. This is the one and only time I think I will ever say that the movie is better than the book. What the book lacked, the movie changed for the better and did a flawless job with it. 10/10
