I personally feel " The Notebook " is a fantastic film, i thoroughly enjoyed it as i personally love a tear jerker and it had a very unpredictable ending and i love the way their romance developed and their different social backgrounds forced their part, it's a romantic tale that has a fantastic twist! The notebook appeals to all age groups, as the film is set in the Second World War. The notebook presents growing up, loosing chances and the pain and problems that come with falling in love and also the happiness and the perfect fairytale ending that everyone wishes for. It's the ultimate " chic flic" or tear jerker!

The film is directed by Nick Cassavetes.
