The Notebook
★★★★
Director: Nick Cassavetes
Year: 2004
I’ve seen that segment on the cover so many times thanks to Sprint and their don’t talk while watching the film PSA. So I felt like I had seen this so many times. Granted, it is a very formulaic film – love that conquers adversity, a story told by senior citizens, high society vs. working class, a war that separates true love, and a last minute encounter just before a life-changing event. But all of those formulaic pieces worked so well, almost like you’re expecting the Happily Ever After of every fairy tale.
