 I watched the movie The Notebook, and I will tell you about this movie. Nick Cassavetes produced this movie in 2004, and the original is a novel written by Nicholas Sparks in 1996.

 This movie starts the scene where an elder man is talking about Allie and Noah’s love story to an elder woman who has dementia. 

 The story about Allie and Noah. Allie was born in a wealthy family. A local worker, Noah, fell in love with her but her parents were against their love. There was an ancient house Noah wants to buy and remodel. One day he takes her there and they make love. However Allie’s parents moved to New York taking her. Noah wrote 365 letters to Allie, but her mother doesn’t give them to her. 

 Three years later, the war started, and Noah volunteers to join the army. Allie works as an army nurse. She meets an injured soldier, Lon. And then they promise to marry. Noah comes back from the war and his father helps him buy the house he wanted to buy. Noah lives in the house and repairs it. Allie decides to go to Noah’s house to meet him before she gets married. She meets him and she knows about the letters. Though her mother comes to take her back home, Allie reads the letters and she goes back to Noah’s house. Just then the elder woman says, “This story is about us.” The elder man answers, “Yes” and sheds tears.

 I shed tears when I watched this movie. I affected very much. I know Allie and Noah love each other very much. I become to want to be happy. Surely this movie will move everyone’s mind!
