The Notebook

Rating: 10/10 (12 February 2006)

This is a movie that I can watch over and over again. This movie reminds me so much of the love that my parents shared till death. As in the movie, I watched my elderly father wheel himself into my mother's hospital room each day to visit and hold my mother's hand. He was by her side till her death. She was 81 when she died and before her death, she asked that we take care of my father for her. My father died a year and a half later at the age of 94. I feel so lucky to have seen a love like theirs. The last minutes of this movie always brings me to tears and mixed emotions. It reminds me of what I've lost,(my parents) but also of what I was fortunate enough to see, an amazing love that stood the test of time. The Notebook is one of the best, true, love stories that I've ever seen!
