The Notebook

The Notebook is a love story by Nicholas Sparks. The story opens present-day in a nursing home, where an elderly man reads bits and pieces of a love story of two young lovers from a notebook to his female companion. Young Noah Calhoun, a lumberyard worker, is instantly smitten with fifteen-year-old Allie Hamilton, the daughter of a well-to-do Southern family who is spending the summer at their vacation home in 1940s North Carolina. Allie's parents disapprove of their relationship, and Noah and Allie are separated. However, Noah and Allie's paths cross again seven years later, but Allie is engaged to wealthy Lon Hammond. The Notebook film adaptation became a "sleeper hit" in Summer 2004 and put Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling on the map in Hollywood as "up-and-comers."

Excuse me.

Come on, honey, let's
get you ready for bed.

I am no one special,

:03:19

just a common man
with common thoughts.

:03:22

I've led a common life.

:03:25

There are no monuments
dedicated to me.

:03:27

And my name
will soon be forgotten.

:03:30

But in one respect,

:03:31

I've succeeded as gloriously
as anyone who ever lived.

:03:35

- Looking good, Duke.
- Feeling good.

:03:37

I've loved another
with all my heart

:03:39

and soul and for me
that has always been enough.

:03:43

How's it hanging, Harry?

:03:44

I keep trying to die,
but they won't let me.

:03:47

Well, you can't
have everything.

:03:52

Big day today.

:03:54

You say that every day,
you old devil.

:03:58

It's a lovely day
outside.
