A romantic movie built on sensitivity and class

Rating: 10/10 (12 February 2005)

If you want to get into a romantic mood, this is definitely the film to watch. In my humble opinion, it's one of the finest movies done in a recent while. I loved the direction, I loved the storyline and the build up of the mystery and its final conclusion.
Looking up the credits of the writer, it turns out that Nicholas Sparks also wrote "A Walk to Remember" and "Message in a Bottle." I cried and was inspired with the former and heard good reviews about the latter. I can't wait to watch that second movie now.
Sparks is a romanticist women must love and most men fail to comprehend. He's certainly a sensitive individual who is able to capture concepts in the printed word. He's mastered an art form so lacking in our present crop of Hollywood junk.
I cannot reveal more for the sake of those who haven't watched the movie but if you've lost the fire of hopes and dreams, this movie will certainly rekindle that flame.
